Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for facilitating improved downlink MIMO sector throughput in the presence of UE DC-offset. The system receives BLER from a plurality of UEs and tracks by L1 computing the DL BLER in a UE; checks if the BLER from the UE allocated with an RB containing a DC subcarrier is above a target BLER and if so the L1 increases the power of the RE containing the DC-subcarrier in steps of 3 dB. If the BLER improves in the UE, the L1 stops further increase of power on the DC subcarrier RE. The L1 maintains the improved UE/sector throughput and the subcarrier RE power. The system further supports a plurality of 5G NR UEs with different bandwidth wherein the DC-carrier of each UE can be worked out by the L2 by a set of predefined instructions.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer software are disclosed for providing high resolution timing advance estimation based on Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH). An example method includes receiving a preamble signal r(n) having a predetermined sampling frequency and a predetermined length; correlating a down sampled version of the received preamble with a reference preamble sequence c(n) using an FFT method to provide correlation output Ryc; using a peak value P of the correlation output Ryc to detect a preamble ID and a timing advance at a resolution of 24 Ts; zero padding sequences Y(k) and C(k) so that they have a predetermined length resulting in sequences Y_hat(k) and C_hat(k), which are 1024-point FFT of y(n) and c(n); performing a maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) to estimate a timing offset; and detecting a peak value out of the R_hat(m) and using a corresponding index Q to provide a timing advance with an accuracy of 2 Ts.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer software are disclosed for providing high resolution timing advance estimation based on Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH). An example method includes receiving a preamble signal r(n); performing signal conditioning on r(n); down sampling the signal and performing antialiasing filtering to provide a y(n) signal; correlating y(n) with a reference preamble with a reference preamble sequence c(n) to provide correlation output Ryc; using a peak value P of the correlation output Ryc to detect a preamble ID and a timing advance; constructing a sequence s(n) by segmenting r_centered(n) for length L around an index P*24; performing time domain interpolation of c(n) around index P to obtain a sequence c_interpolated(n); performing time domain interpolation between sequences s(n) and c_interpolated(n); detecting a peak position Q of the correlation; and deriving TA as P*24?L/2+q in terms of Ts.
