PBCH Extraction Equalization

Extraction and alignment of PBCH characters.

blockType: PBCHExtractionEqualization

Path in the library:

/5G/PBCH Extraction Equalization

Description

Block PBCH Extraction Equalization performs extraction and alignment of PBCH characters.

The block performs the following actions:

  • Extracts the elements of the physical channel resources associated with the PBCH from the received grid.

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

  • Returns information about the channel status in the form of a complex matrix.
