PBCH Extraction Equalization

PBCH character extraction and alignment.

pbch extraction equalization

Description

The PBCH Extraction Equalization block performs PBCH character extraction and alignment.

The block performs the following actions:

  • Extracts PBCH-related physical channel resource elements from the received mesh.

  • Uses the estimated channel and noise variance information to perform minimum mean square error equalisation and returns the aligned PBCH symbols as a complex matrix.

  • Returns the channel state information as a complex matrix.

Ports
