Flexibility in 5G NR Air Interface | Webinar

Presented on Nov 29, 2019 by Eshwar MSSK (Award Solutions)
View this 1-hour video to learn about the 5G New Radio (NR) and its key features. This webinar will focus on flexible frame structure and scalable numerology. You’ll also learn about the 3GPP-defined air interface parameters of 5G that support services with varying performance and latency requirements as compared to 4G LTE.

Great Video, Happy Thanksgiving

Very Nice Explanation sir......Thank You...

[@RajatKumar-ek5fn]

Very well explained.thanks a lot

[@AnilAgrawal]

Looking at the summary table at 54:27 time mark, can you please show how the sampling rates are calculated? Including why the sampling rate needs to be what it is would be good as well. Thank you.

Hello very nice presentation Thanks for uploading video, quick question here IN LTE we have Sc-FDMA for uplink but now in 5G we are talking about SC-FDMA or CP-FDMA, how are we dealing with PAPR problem, Thanks appreciate your response

[@harshalkhairnar1943]

Pls can anyone tell me what's the scope of this?... I'm totally new here so all the suggestions and answers would be appreciated

Thanks for the video uploaded. i have one question in LTE we have 7 Frame configurations of UL-DL slots in TDD. In 5G, how many frame configurations do we have? There are 56 different slots configuration which is defined, but that is applicable for FLEXIBLE slots in the 5G-FRAME, what about the other slots in a frame. How are they defined? For ex. with SCS as 15khz, we have 10 slots of 1ms each in Frame of 10ms. How are these defined? Is there any specific Frame configuration as we had in LTE?

Hi Rohit! Thanks for your question! In LTE we have 7 Frame configurations of UL-DL slots in TDD. In 5G, there are 56 different slot configurations which are defined, but that is applicable for FLEXIBLE slots in the 5G-FRAME. What about the other slots in a frame? How are they defined? For ex. with SCS as 15khz, we have 10 slots of 1ms each in Frame of 10ms. How are these defined? Are there any specific Frame configuration as we had in LTE? TD- LTE supports 7 TDD UL_DL Configurations. Each of these configurations indicate the number of subframes configured for downlink and uplink in a frame of 10 subframes. Service providers shall plan one of the 7 TDD UL_DL configurations during network planning and this configuration does not change over a period. 5G NR supports TDD UL_DL configuration at the granularity of OFDM symbols. Within a slot of 14 OFDM symbols, certain OFDM symbols can be configured for downlink and certain OFDM symbols for uplink and rest of the OFDM symbols are marked as flexible. OFDM symbols with Flexible configuration can be configured either as downlink or uplink or for switching time from downlink to uplink for a device. 5G NR supports 56 slot formats for TDD operation. Each slot format indicates number of symbols for downlink, for uplink and for flexible configuration in a slot of 14 OFDM symbols. The number of slots in a frame of 10 ms depends on subcarrier spacing. For example, grid with SCS 15 KHz offers 10 slots, SCS 30 KHz offers 20 slots and SCS 60 KHz offers 40 slots. Each of these slots is configured according to one of the 56 slot formats. Example of TDD configuration in 5G is depicted below: tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon referenceSubcarrierSpacing kHz30 pattern1 dl-UL-TransmissionPeriodicity ms5 nrofDownlinkSlots 7 nrofDownlinkSymbols 6 nrofUplinkSlots 2 nrofUplinkSymbols 4 In the above TDD configuration, with SCS of 30khz, a total of 10 slots are available in 5ms periodicity. Among 10 slots, first 7 slots are configured as downlink, last 2 slots are configured as uplink. In remaining one slot, first 6 symbols are configured as downlink, last 4 symbols are configured as uplink. Remaining 4 symbols are configured as Flexible. Flexible symbols can be configured either as downlink or uplink or for switching time from DL to UL, conveyed via dedicated RRC signaling to the device. Hope this answers your query.
