5G ORAN Network Architecture Elements
ORAN Introduction ORAN network architecture is needed to address the specific needs of different mobile operators around the world and it is expected that vendors will interoperate to create customized […]
5G NR Layer 2 – Radio Link Control (RLC) Overview
5G RLC overall functionality is almost same as LTE RLC. In 5G also, RLC has 3 different modes of operations and each of the mode can transmit and receive data, […]
3GPP Evolution for MIMO
Released 3GPP standards on MIMO are shown in below image. As you know, Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) is a type of Cooperative MIMO, in which data and channel state information (CSI) are […]
5G NR Transport Block Size (TBS) Calculation
Transport Block in 5G NR, is nothing but the payload which is passed between the MAC and Phy Layers, specifically for the shared data channel such as PDSCH and PUSCH. […]
5G NR Measurement Configuration: Meas Object, Report Config, Meas ID
During UE attach, after a radio bearer is set up, the eNB (in NSA Mode) or gNB (in SA Mode) delivers measurement configurations to the UE based on the mobility […]
5G NR RSRP Measurement Report Mapping
In 5G NR, RSRP measurement is performed and reported at Layer 1 (Physical Layer) and Layer 3 (RRC Layer). For example, 5G capable device can provide SS-RSRP measurements at Layer […]
5G NR Measurement Events
In any telecom technology (2G, 3G, 4G or 5G), mobility (handover) decision whether mobile device will be handover or not is taken by by base station based on measurement reports […]
5G NR Inactive-RNTI (I-RNTI) for RRC_INACTIVE State
In 5G NR, 3GPP specification has introduced an RRC state as RRC_INACTIVE state. The aim of RRC_INACTIVE state is to achieve power saving with acceptable access latency, and is suitable […]
5G NR Antenna Port – Logical and Physical Antenna Mapping
Downlink multi-antenna transmission is a key technology of 5G NR. Signals transmitted from different antennas ports will experience different “radio channels” even if the set of antennas are located at […]
Motivation Behind Having Multiple Numerology in 5G NR
Talking about numerology, as we know LTE has single subcarrier spacing equal to 15khz, but here in NR, we have multiple numerologies and those are represented by Greek letter µ. […]
