ltePUCCH2Decode

Physical uplink control channel format 2 decoding

Syntax

out = ltePUCCH2Decode(ue,chs,sym)

Description

out = ltePUCCH2Decode(ue,chs,sym) performs decoding of the PUCCH format 2 given UE-specific settings ue and channel transmission configuration chs. out is a soft bit vector consisting of 20 bits, formed by decoding complex symbol matrix sym, performing demodulation with the PUCCH format 2 reference sequence, QPSK demodulation, and descrambling. The symbols for each antenna are in the columns of sym, and the number of columns should match the number of PUCCH Resource Indices specified in the structure, chs.

Examples

Decode PUCCH Format 2 Signal

Decode a PUCCH format 2 signal from an equalized resource array, grid.

First, create a UE configuration structure, ue, and a PUCCH configuration structure, pucch2.

ue = struct('NULRB',6,'NCellID',0,'NSubframe',0,'RNTI',1);
pucch2 = struct('ResourceIdx',0);

For the transmitter, create a PUCCH format 2 resource grid.

rgrid = lteULResourceGrid(ue);
pucch2Indices = ltePUCCH2Indices(ue,pucch2);
tx = [1;0;0;0;0;1];
encoded = lteUCIEncode(tx);
rgrid(pucch2Indices) = ltePUCCH2(ue,pucch2,encoded);

On the receiver side, decode the PUCCH format 2 signal contained in equalized resource array, grid. Also decode the UCI bits.

rx = ltePUCCH2Decode(ue,pucch2,rgrid(pucch2Indices));
decoded = lteUCIDecode(rx,length(tx))

decoded = 6x1 logical array

chs — Channel transmission configuration

structure

Channel transmission configuration, specified as a structure. chs contains the following fields.

ResourceIdx — PUCCH resource indices

0 (default) | optional | 0...1185

PUCCH resource indices, specified as a nonnegative vector with one element for each transmission antenna. These indices determine the cyclic shift and orthogonal cover used for transmission. (n2_pucch)

Example: 78

Data Types: double

ResourceSize — Size of resources allocated to PUCCH format 2

0 (default) | optional | 0...98

Size of resources allocated to PUCCH format 2, specified as nonnegative scalar integer. This parameter affects location of this transmission. (N2RB)

Data Types: double

CyclicShifts — Number of cyclic shifts for format 1 resource blocks

0 (default) | optional | 0...7

Number of cyclic shifts for format 1 resource blocks, in RBs, specified as a nonnegative scalar integer. This parameter can be used in a mixture of format 1 and format 2 PUCCH. (N1cs)

Example: 7

Data Types: double

sym — Symbols of each antenna

complex numeric matrix

Symbols for each antenna, specified as complex numeric matrix. The number of columns should match the number of PUCCH resource indices specified in the channel transmission configuration structure, chs.

Example: 0.25881 + 0.9659i

Data Types: double
Complex Number Support: Yes

Output Arguments

out — PUCCH format 2 decoded soft bit output

logical column vector
