What is code rate in 5G NR?

In 5G the maximum Code Block size is 8448 bits. What is Code Rate? Code rate (or information rate) in telecommunications is defined as the ratio between information bits and total transmitted bits (Information + Redundant Bits) . Redundant bits are added by the physical layer for Forward Error Correction (FEC).

How is data sent in LTE?

After the device’s radio context has been restablished, the cellular tower notifies the MME, which in turn notifies the S-GW, which is now able to route the message to the correct radio tower. Finally, the tower sends the data to the device through the device’s LTE modem interface .

What is rate matching in 5G?

The rate-matching is to extract the exact set of bits to be transmitted within a given TTI . The rate-matching for Turbo coded transport channels is defined for each code block: there are three basic steps composing a rate-matching. Namely, sub-block interleaver, bit collection, and bit selection.

What is code block in LTE?

for code block segmentation used on LTE-Advanced channel coding physical layer (PHY) is presented in this paper. Code block segmentation is a generic procedure which is commonly applied before turbo encoding . Its main function is to fragment a large transport block into smaller code blocks.

What is CRC attachment?

Transport Block CRC Attachment A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is used for error detection in transport blocks . The entire transport block is used to calculate the CRC parity bits. The transport block is divided by a cyclic generator polynomial, described as g C R C 24 A in section 5.1.
