What Is Dmrs/drs?

Answer»

DMRS/DRS is uplink reference SIGNAL.

Used for :

  1. Channel Estimation and SYNCHRONIZATION in UL
  2. EnodeB can use DMRS for calculating TA command for each UE.
    Two Types: 1) PUSCH DMRS.
    2) PUCCH DMRS.

PUSCH DMRS: 

  1. Included in EVERY resource block allocated to UE for PUSCH transmission.
  2. Distributed only in Frequency domain to preserve the PAPR characteristic of SC-FDMA.
  3. 12 Resource element per resource block allocated to PUSCH DMRS.

PUCCH DMRS: 

  1. Included in every resource block allocated to UE for PUCCH transmission(if transmitted).PUCCH occupies 2 resource block per 1 ms SUBFRAME when transmitted.
  2. No of REs used for PUCCH DMRS depends on
    a) PUCCH format to be transmitted and whether
    b) normal or extended cyclic prefix used.
  3. PUCCH DRMS used more no of bits in case of format 1,1a,1b and less no of bits in CASEOF format 2, 2a, 2b.
