nrPUSCHPTRSConfig

PUSCH PT-RS configuration parameters

Description

The nrPUSCHPTRSConfig object sets phase tracking reference signal (PT-RS) configuration parameters for the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), as defined in TS 38.211 Section 6.4.1.2 [1]. This object bundles all the properties involved in PUSCH PT-RS symbols and indices generation. By default, the object defines the PT-RS with a frequency density of 2 and time density of 1. Use this object when setting the PTRS property of the nrPUSCHConfig or nrWavegenPUSCHConfig objects.

Creation

Syntax

ptrs = nrPUSCHPTRSConfig

ptrs = nrPUSCHPTRSConfig(Name,Value)

Description

ptrs = nrPUSCHPTRSConfig creates a PUSCH-specific PT-RS configuration object with default properties.

ptrs = nrPUSCHPTRSConfig(Name,Value) specifies properties using one or more name-value pair arguments. Enclose each property in quotes. For example, 'TimeDensity',2,'FrequencyDensity',4 sets the time density to 2 and frequency density to 4. Unspecified properties take their default values.

PT-RS antenna port set, specified as a two-element vector of nonnegative integers. Specify [] to set this property to the lowest value in the DMRSPortSet property of nrPUSCHDMRSConfig object. This usage of [] value is applicable only when nrPUSCHDMRSConfig object is used as a property of nrPUSCHConfig object.

Dependencies

This property applies only when nrPUSCHPTRSConfig is a property of nrPUSCHConfig with TransformPrecoding set to 0.

Data Types: double

NID — PT-RS scrambling identity

[] (default) | integer from 0 to 1007
