Cell search and synchronization in 5G NR
Abstract
An overview of the physical signals foreseen by the 3GPP 5G New Radio specification for frame synchronization and cell search in fifth- generation wireless broadband access systems is presented in the paper. The frame synchronization algorithm and the cell initialization procedure are demonstrated. An estimate of probability of error detection of a physical identifier by the signals of the primary and secondary synchronization is obtained. The comparison of the successful synchronization in AWGN channel for 4G LTE and 5G NR is shown.
