  • value (int) – Specifies the SRS subframe configuration specified in the Table 5.5.3.3-1 of 3GPP 36.211 specification. It is a cell-specific attribute. This attribute defines the subframes that are reserved for SRS transmission in a given cell.

Returns:

Returns the status code of this method. The status code either indicates success or describes a warning condition.

Return type:

int

set_sss_power(selector_string, value)[source]

Sets the power of secondary synchronization signal (SSS) relative to the power of cell-specific reference signal. This value is expressed in dB.

Use “carrier<k>” or “subblock<n>/carrier<k>” as the selector string to configure or read this attribute.

The default value is 0.

Parameters:
  • selector_string (string) – Pass an empty string.

  • value (float) – Specifies the power of secondary synchronization signal (SSS) relative to the power of cell-specific reference signal. This value is expressed in dB.

Returns:

Returns the status code of this method. The status code either indicates success or describes a warning condition.

Return type:

int

Sets whether the sequence group number hopping for demodulation reference signal (DMRS) is enabled, as defined in section 5.5.1.3 of the 3GPP TS 36.211 specification.

Use “carrier<k>” or “subblock<n>/carrier<k>” as the selector string to configure or read this attribute.

The default value is False.

Name (Value)

Description

False (0)

The measurement uses zero as the sequence group number for all the slots.

True (1)

Calculates the sequence group number for each slot, as defined in the section 5.5.1.3 of 3GPP 36.211 Specification.

Parameters:
  • selector_string (string) – Pass an empty string.

  • value (enums.UplinkGroupHoppingEnabled, int) – Specifies whether the sequence group number hopping for demodulation reference signal (DMRS) is enabled, as defined in section 5.5.1.3 of the 3GPP TS 36.211 specification.

Returns:

Returns the status code of this method. The status code either indicates success or describes a warning condition.

Return type:

int

Sets whether the base sequence number hopping for the demodulation reference signal (DMRS) is enabled, as defined in section 5.5.1.3 of the 3GPP TS 36.211 specification. This attribute is only valid only when you set the PUSCH_NUMBER_OF_RESOURCE_BLOCKS attribute to a value greater than 5.

Use “carrier<k>” or “subblock<n>/carrier<k>” as the selector string to configure or read this attribute.

The default value is False.

Name (Value)

Description

False (0)

The measurement uses zero as the base sequence number for all the slots.

True (1)

Calculates the base sequence number for each slot, as defined in the section 5.5.1.4 of 3GPP 36.211 specification.

Parameters:
  • selector_string (string) – Pass an empty string.

  • value (enums.UplinkSequenceHoppingEnabled, int) – Specifies whether the base sequence number hopping for the demodulation reference signal (DMRS) is enabled, as defined in section 5.5.1.3 of the 3GPP TS 36.211 specification. This attribute is only valid only when you set the PUSCH_NUMBER_OF_RESOURCE_BLOCKS attribute to a value greater than 5.

Returns:

Returns the status code of this method. The status code either indicates success or describes a warning condition.

Return type:

int
