TS 38.201 NR; Physical layer; General description (Release 18)

TS38.201是介绍性的标准,简单介绍了RAN的信道组成和PHY层承担的功能,下图是PHY层相关标准的关系。

PHY层标准

结构

如图所示,不同层/子层之间的圆圈表示服务接入点(SAP),其中L2包括MAC,RLC,PDCP和SDAP。PHY为MAC提供传输信道(信息如何通过无线电接口传输),MAC为RLC提供逻辑信道(所传输信息的类型),RLC为PDCP提供RLC信道,PDCP为上层提供无线承载,SDAP提供QoS Flow级别服务。

不同层关系

信道类型

The physical channels defined in the downlink are:
  • the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH),
  • the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH),
  • the Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH),
The physical channels defined in the uplink are:
  • the Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH),
  • the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH),
  • the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH).
The physical channels defined in the sidelink are:
  • the Physical Sidelink Broadcast Channel (PSBCH),
  • the Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH),
  • the Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel (PSFCH),
  • the Physical Sidelink Shared Channel (PSSCH).
In addition, signals are defined as reference signals, primary and secondary synchronization signals.

调制方式

The modulation schemes supported are
  • in the downlink, QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM, 256QAM, and 1024QAM,
  • in the uplink, QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM and 256QAM for OFDM with a CP and π/2-BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM,64QAM and 256QAM for DFT-s-OFDM with a CP.
