Syntax

dcicw = nrDCIEncode(dcibits,rnti,E)

Description

example

dcicw = nrDCIEncode(dcibits,rnti,E) encodes the input DCI bits and returns the rate-matched DCI codeword of length E. The function implements the features described in TS 38.212 Section 7.3.2, 7.3.3, and 7.3.4 [1], such as cyclic redundancy check (CRC) attachment, polar encoding, and rate matching. The CRC parity bits are masked with rnti, the radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) of the user equipment (UE).

Open Live Script

Create a random sequence of binary values corresponding to a DCI message of 32 bits. 

dcibits = randi([0 1],32,1);

Encode the message for the specified RNTI and rate-matched output length.

rnti = 100; 
E = 240;
dcicw = nrDCIEncode(dcibits,rnti,E)
dcicw = 240×1

Input Arguments

collapse all

DCI message bits, specified as a column vector of binary values. dcibits is the input to the DCI processing to be transmitted on a single physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

Data Types: double | int8

RNTI of the UE, specified as an integer from 0 to 65,535.

Data Types: double

Length of rate-matched DCI codeword in bits, specified as a positive integer. E must be in the range K + 24 < E ≤ 8192, where K is the length of dcibits.

Data Types: double

Output Arguments

Rate-matched DCI codeword, returned as an E-by-1 column vector of binary values. dcicw inherits its data type from the input dcibits.

Data Types: double | int8
