Notes/Equations
  1. This model is used to implement transport format combination indicator (TFCI) decoding. The TFCI decoder decodes a (30,10) punctured sub-code of the second-order Reed-Muller code into a TFCI information value.
    Each firing, one TFCIOut token is produced when 30 or 120 TFCI tokens are consumed depending on DCHType. The default value for TFCIBitsNum is 6 and default value for DCHType is DPCH_15_kbps.
  2. Model functions
    Input TFCI information is read from the input buffer.
    A determination is made for repeating input TFCI information. In downlink, when the SF is lower than 128 the encoded and punctured TFCI code words are repeated four times yielding 120 output bits. The two kinds of output code words are:
    • TFCIOut information without repetition:
    • TFCIOut information with repetition:
    If the repetition is used, the 30 average values bi are taken from the input 120 TFCI bits as follows:

    bi = (bi1+bi2+bi3+bi4)/4 i = 0, 1, ... , 29

    If TFCIBitsNum ≤ 6, calculating the coherent value between the 32 input bits with the possible code words C32,0, C32,1, ..., C32,31, refer to WCDMA3G_TFCIEncoder. Assume the n th coherent value has the greatest absolute value, then if the n th coherent value is positive, the decimal value of TFCI is 2n, otherwise is (2n+1).
    If TFCIBitsNum > 6, up to four masks are used. The decoding scheme, illustrated in the following figure, is described:
    • Multiply the input 32 bits by the possible masks (0 to 15) and calculate the coherent value.
    • Store the maximum absolute coherent value and TFCI value for this mask.
    • After storing all possible masks, find the maximum coherent value under all masks. Assume the n th coherent value has the greatest absolute value; the n th TFCI value is the decoded value.

    Decoder structure while masks are used
    The decoded TFCI bits are output to the output buffer.
