Syntax

[ind,info] = nrPUSCHIndices(carrier,pusch)
[ind,info] = nrPUSCHIndices(carrier,pusch,Name,Value)

Description

example

[ind,info] = nrPUSCHIndices(carrier,pusch) returns ind in matrix form, which contains 1-based physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resource element (RE) indices, as defined in TS 38.211 Sections 6.3.1.6 and 6.3.1.7 [1]. The number of columns in ind is equal to the number of configured antenna ports. carrier specifies the carrier configuration parameters for a specific OFDM numerology and pusch specifies the PUSCH configuration. The function also returns the structure info, which contains additional information about the associated physical reference signals, bit capacity, and symbol capacity.

example

[ind,info] = nrPUSCHIndices(carrier,pusch,Name,Value) specifies output formatting options using one or more name-value pair arguments. Unspecified options take default values.

carrier = nrCarrierConfig;

Create a PUSCH configuration object with codebook-based transmission. Set the number of antenna ports to 4, modulation scheme to pi/2-BPSK, transmitted precoding matrix indicator to 10, and transform precoding to 0.
