Efficient Design and Implementation Method to Reduce NR-based gNB Transmitter Development Time

In order to provide various mobile communication services, mobile communication systems are continuously evolving, and research and development are being concentrated in various major countries in order to preemptively occupy the mobile communication market converging with various systems. We propose an efficient design and implementation method using MathWorks’ MATLAB & Simulink Tool and Keysight’s Signal Studio Pro Tool & measurement equipment to reduce the time required for complex and evolving mobile communication system development and implementation. We apply the proposed method to the development of 3GPP NR-based gNB transmitters to verify channel control settings for gNB modem operation verification, LLS development for gNB transmitter function verification, Verilog/VHDL code generation for gNB transmitter implementation, and repeatable Step-by-step updates according to errors in each development stage, implemented gNB transmitter test and analysis were performed. As a result, it was confirmed that the method proposed by us can work more easily and accurately than the conventional method, and the required time is remarkably shortened.
