Generate LTE-Advanced Pro Release 13 Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) waveforms for test and measurement applications using the LTE Toolbox™.

How LTE Toolbox™ can be used to create a NB-IoT Narrowband Physical Downlink Shared Channel (NPDSCH) Block Error Rate (BLER) simulation under frequency-selective fading and Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel.

Generate LTE-Advanced Pro Release 13 Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) uplink waveforms consisting of the Narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH) and the associated demodulation reference signals for test and measurement applications using the LTE Toolbox™.

Create an NB-IoT Narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH) Block Error Rate (BLER) simulation in frequency-selective fading and Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) using LTE Toolbox™.

How the LTE Toolbox™ can be used to fully synchronize, demodulate and decode a live narrowband internet of things (NB-IoT) downlink signal. Before the user equipment (UE) can communicate with the network, it must perform cell search and selection procedures and obtain initial system information. This involves acquiring slot and frame synchronization, finding out the cell identity and decoding the master information block (MIB). This example demonstrates this process and decodes the MIB. To decode MIB a comprehensive receiver is required, capable of demodulating and decoding the downlink channels and signals.
