- updated return function value to -1
- removed static variable for dmrs symbol selection for channel
- Updated sin cos quadrant check conditions
- removed casting from PTRS slope and related calculations
FEATURE STATEMENT:
- Introduce linear phase error noise model in Uplink at UE
- Perform common phase error (CPE) estimation and compensation at gNB
SOLUTION:
- A linear phase shift model is introduced in simulation.
- PTRS symbols are used to perform estimation of CPE from DMRS compensated signal
- The estimated values are interpolated in time domain and signal is compensated for the CPE.
- PTRS processing is done in Frequency Domain for each symbol in a slot and
LLR's are calculated for each symbol accordingly.
IMPLEMENTATION:
* sim.h/channle_sim.c
- Linear Phase Noise Generation model definition.
* nr_ul_channel_estimation.c/nr_ul_estimation.h
- CPE estimation from PTRS and DMRS compensated signal.
* nr_dmrs_rx.c/nr_refsig.h
- Regenerate PTRS symbols at gNB.
* nr_ulsch_demodulation.c
- Removed old PTRS processing code and move to a common PTRS processing function
* defs_gNB.h/init.c
- New PTRS variables definition and initialization
* nr_ulsch_ue.c
- Corrected PTRS parameter to get new PTRS symbols for each OFDM symbol
TESTING
* ulsim.c
- Added Phase noise, Enable PTRS signal and verified the output.
VERIFICATION
- The LLR are rotated back with estimated CPE and no error is observed in scrambling/decoding
