Syntax

[bandwidth,dyn] = wlanInterpretScramblerState(scramInit)
[bandwidth,dyn] = wlanInterpretScramblerState(scramInit,idx1)

Description

example

[bandwidth,dyn] = wlanInterpretScramblerState(scramInit) recovers bandwidth signaling from initial scrambler state scramInit. The function returns bandwidth, the channel bandwidth, and dyn, an indication of whether bandwidth operation is dynamic or static.

[bandwidth,dyn] = wlanInterpretScramblerState(scramInit,idx1) specifies idx1, the dot11CurrentChannelCenterFrequencyIndex1 parameter, as defined in Table 17-9 of [1].

Open Live Script

Configure and generate a non-HT Data signal with a channel bandwidth of 160 MHz and dynamic bandwidth operation.

bandwidth = 'CBW160';
cfg = wlanNonHTConfig('ChannelBandwidth',bandwidth,'PSDULength',1, ...
    'SignalChannelBandwidth',true,'BandwidthOperation','Dynamic');
bits = randi([0 1],8*cfg.PSDULength,1,'int8');
[range,~] = scramblerRange(cfg);
scramInit = randi(range);
y = wlanNonHTData(bits,cfg,scramInit);

Transmit the waveform through an AWGN channel with an SNR of 50.

snr = 50;
noiseVarEst = 10^(-snr/10);
rx = awgn(y,snr);

Recover the frequency-domain signal by OFDM demodulating the non-HT Data signal, specifying an OFDM symbol sampling offset.

field = 'NonHT-Data';
symOffset = 0.5;
sym = wlanNonHTOFDMDemodulate(rx,field,bandwidth,'OFDMSymbolOffset',symOffset);

Extract the data subcarriers.

info = wlanNonHTOFDMInfo(field,bandwidth);
sym = sym(info.DataIndices,:);

Recover the first 20 MHz subchannel of the PSDU, enhancing the demapping of the OFDM subcarriers by specifying channel state information. Confirm that the received and transmitted PSDUs match.

csi = ones(48,1);
[psdu,scramInit] = wlanNonHTDataBitRecover(sym(1:48,:),noiseVarEst,csi,cfg);
isequal(bits,psdu)
ans = logical

Recover and display bandwidth signaling by interpreting the scrambler state.

[bandwidth,dyn] = wlanInterpretScramblerState(scramInit)
bandwidth = 
'CBW160'

dyn = logical

Input Arguments

Initial scrambler state, specified as an integer in the interval [1, 127], or the corresponding binary-valued column vector of length 7.

Section 17.3.5.5 of [1] specifies the scrambling and descrambling process applied to the transmitted data. The header and data fields that follow the scrambler initialization field (including data padding bits) are scrambled by XORing each bit with a length-127 periodic sequence generated by the polynomial S(x) = x7 + x4 + 1. The octets of the PSDU are placed into a bit stream, and, within each octet, bit 0 (LSB) is first and bit 7 (MSB) is last. This figure demonstrates the sequence generation and XOR operation.

Conversion from integer to bits uses left-MSB orientation. For the initialization of the scrambler with decimal 1, the bits are mapped to the elements shown.

ElementX7X6X5X4X3X2X1
Bit value0000001

To generate the bit stream equivalent to a decimal, use the de2bi function. For example, for the decimal 1:

de2bi(1,7,'left-msb')
ans =

     0     0     0     0     0     0     1

Example: [1; 0; 1; 1; 1; 0; 1] conveys the scrambler initialization state of 93 as a binary-valued column vector.

Output Arguments

Recovered channel bandwidth, returned as one of these values.

  • 'CBW20' — Channel bandwidth of 20 MHz

  • 'CBW40' — Channel bandwidth of 40 MHz

  • 'CBW80' — Channel bandwidth of 80 MHz

  • 'CBW160' — Channel bandwidth of 160 MHz

  • 'CBW80+80' — Channel bandwidth of 160 MHz comprising two non-adjacent 80 MHz channels

Data Types: char

Indication of whether bandwidth operation is dynamic or static, returned as a logical 1 or 0. A value of 0 indicates static bandwidth operation. A value of 1 indicates dynamic bandwidth operation.

Data Types: logical
