What is a bandwidth part?

A Bandwidth Part (BWP) is a contiguous set of physical resource blocks (PRBs) on a given carrier . These RBs are selected from a contiguous subset of the common resource blocks for a given numerology (u). It is denoted by BWP. Each BWP defined for a numerology can have following three different parameters.28 Eyl 2018

What is initial bandwidth part?

Initial BWP is used to performs Initial Access Process . It includes Parameters like RMSI (Requested Minimum System Information), CORESET* and RMSI Frequency location/bandwidth/SCS. It can be 24~96 PRBs with different settings and relaxed to wider BWP after RMSI decoding.

What is a symbol in 5G?

If your phone has a 5G modem, you will see one of two symbols: 5G or 5G+. 5G means your phone is currently connected to 5G NR on a sub-6 GHz frequency . Bands in this range provide better coverage but slower speeds. The higher the frequency, the faster your download speeds.

What is LTE numerology?

Numerology corresponds to one subcarrier spacing in the frequency domain . NR supports a flexible numerology with a range of subcarrier spacings, based on scaling a baseline subcarrier spacing of 15 kHz. By scaling a reference subcarrier spacing by an integer N, different numerologies can be defined.
