5G NR#

This module provides blocks and functions to support simulations of 5G NR compliant features, in particular, the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). It provides implementations of a subset of the physical layer functionalities as described in the 3GPP specifications [3GPPTS38211], [3GPPTS38212], and [3GPPTS38214].

The best way to discover this module’s components is by having a look at the 5G NR PUSCH Tutorial.

The following code snippet shows how you can make standard-compliant simulations of the 5G NR PUSCH with a few lines of code:

# Create a PUSCH configuration with default settings
pusch_config = PUSCHConfig()

# Instantiate a PUSCHTransmitter from the PUSCHConfig
pusch_transmitter = PUSCHTransmitter(pusch_config)

# Create a PUSCHReceiver using the PUSCHTransmitter
pusch_receiver = PUSCHReceiver(pusch_transmitter)

# AWGN channel
channel = AWGN()

# Simulate transmissions over the AWGN channel
batch_size = 16
no = 0.1 # Noise variance

x, b = pusch_transmitter(batch_size) # Generate transmit signal and info bits

y = channel(x, no) # Simulate channel output

b_hat = pusch_receiver(y, no) # Recover the info bits

# Compute BER
print("BER:", compute_ber(b, b_hat).numpy())

The PUSCHTransmitter and PUSCHReceiver provide high-level abstractions of all required processing blocks. You can easily modify them according to your needs.
