5G RAN
Modulation Schemes Feature Parameter Description 3 Overview
3 Overview
In digital communications systems, modulation is the process of varying the amplitude, phase,
or frequency of a carrier signal with a digital baseband signal that contains information,
allowing the information to be transmitted over the carrier signal.
The modulation schemes presented in this document are 3GPP-defined basic functions. For
details, see 5.1 "Modulation mapper" of 3GPP TS 38.211 V15.5.0. The gNodeB and UEs use
a range of modulation schemes in both the uplink and the downlink. In this version, the
following modulation schemes are supported:
l UL π/2-Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK)
l UL/DL Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK)
l UL/DL 16 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (16QAM)
l UL/DL 64 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (64QAM)
l DL 256 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (256QAM)
In digital modulation, each symbol carries bits, where N is the number of symbols of
a digital modulation scheme. Modulation schemes of different orders produce different
modulation efficiencies. Higher-order modulation schemes are more efficient. They allow
more bits to be carried per symbol, producing a higher bit rate for a given symbol rate. Table
3-1 lists the number of bits that one symbol can carry with different modulation schemes.

Modulation Scheme Number of Bits over One Symbol
π/2-BPSK 1
QPSK 2
16QAM 4
64QAM 6
256QAM 8
A higher-order modulation scheme modulates more bits of information into each modulation
symbol, producing a better overall spectral efficiency for 5G networks. Specifically:

5G RAN
Modulation Schemes Feature Parameter Description 3 Overview
l π/2-BPSK modulates one bit into each modulation symbol.

l QPSK modulates two bits into each modulation symbol.
l 16QAM modulates four bits into each modulation symbol.
l 64QAM modulates six bits into each modulation symbol.
l 256QAM modulates eight bits into each modulation symbol.
A higher-order modulation scheme requires a better channel quality to ensure that the signal
to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) is high enough at the receiver end for correct
demodulation.
This feature allows the gNodeB and UEs to select the modulation scheme best suited to a
given channel condition, thereby balancing modulation schemes and bit error rates during data
transmission.
l When UEs are in radio environments with a poor channel quality, the gNodeB instructs
UEs to use the low-order modulation scheme π/2-BPSK or QPSK during uplink
transmission and the low-order modulation scheme QPSK during downlink reception to
meet service quality requirements.
l When UEs are in radio environments with a good channel quality, the gNodeB instructs
UEs to use a high-order QAM modulation scheme during uplink transmission and
downlink reception and to achieve high bit rates.
A high-order modulation scheme requires that networks have better channel conditions and
that both the gNodeB and the UEs support the modulation scheme.

Modulation Schemes Feature Parameter Description 4 Basic Modulation Schemes
4 Basic Modulation Schemes
4.1 Principles
Basic modulation schemes include UL π/2-BPSK, UL/DL QPSK, UL/DL 16QAM, and
UL/DL 64QAM. These modulation schemes have no parameter switches and are enabled by
default. The gNodeB selects appropriate modulation schemes during scheduling for uplink
and downlink transmission based on channel conditions.
4.2 Network Analysis
4.2.1 Benefits
UL π/2-BPSK, UL/DL QPSK, UL/DL 16QAM, and UL/DL 64QAM are basic modulation
schemes and will be used as the baseline for evaluating the performance of other modulation
schemes.
4.2.2 Impacts
Network Impacts
Higher-order modulation schemes produce higher spectral efficiency and boost system
capacity. However, they are more complicated to implement, provide narrower coverage, and
are less resistant to interference.

5G RAN
Modulation Schemes Feature Parameter Description 5 DL 256QAM
5 DL 256QAM
5.1 Principles
DL 256QAM
DL 256QAM is an enhancement to downlink basic modulation schemes. This function is
controlled by the NRDUCellAlgoSwitch.Dl256QamSwitch parameter. DL 256QAM is
suitable when networks have good channel conditions in the downlink and it is supported by
the UEs on the network.
Adaptation Between DL 256QAM MCS Index Table and DL 64QAM MCS Index
Table
Adaptation between DL 256QAM MCS index table and DL 64QAM MCS index table is an
enhancement to downlink basic modulation schemes. This function is controlled by the
DL_MCS_TABLE_ADAPT_SW option of the NRDUCellPdsch.DLLinkAdaptAlgoSwitch
parameter. For cell-edge UEs, MCS index determination in DL 256QAM is less accurate than
that in DL 64QAM. After this function is enabled, MCS index tables can be adapted between
DL 256QAM and DL 64QAM:
l If the network has a good downlink quality, the gNodeB selects the MCS index table of
DL 256QAM for UEs that support DL 256QAM to improve downlink spectral
efficiency, thereby increasing downlink throughput for the UEs.
l If the network has a relatively poor downlink quality, the gNodeB selects the MCS index
table of DL 64QAM to maintain an appropriate downlink spectral efficiency for UEs
with a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), thereby improving downlink throughput for the
UEs.
For details about MCS index tables of DL 256QAM and DL 64QAM, see 5.1.3.1
"Modulation order and target code rate determination" of 3GPP TS 38.214 V15.4.0.
5.2 Network Analysis

5G RAN
5.2.1 Benefits
DL 256QAM
DL 256QAM provides the following improvements over downlink basic modulation schemes:
l Increased downlink spectral efficiency for UEs near the cell center, increasing downlink
throughput
l Increased cell peak throughput in the downlink
It is recommended that DL 256QAM be enabled when good radio environments are present,
as indicated by that DL 64QAM has reached its upper limit of performance (for example, the
proportion of time with MCS index reaching 28 in the downlink exceeds 30%, as indicated by
the value of N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.28/Sum of N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.0 throughout
N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.31 being greater than 30%, in full-day 24 hours). Under such
conditions, the improvement can vary from 0% to 30%. If the preceding conditions are not
met, enabling this function does not produce negative improvement.
Adaptation Between DL 256QAM MCS Index Table and DL 64QAM MCS Index
Table
Adaptation between DL 256QAM MCS index table and DL 64QAM MCS index table
achieves MCS index table adaptation, allowing for a higher downlink throughput than that
obtained with the MCS index table fixed for downlink modulation.
It is recommended that adaptation between DL 256QAM MCS index table and DL 64QAM
MCS index table be enabled when complicated radio environments are present, as indicated
by that DL 64QAM has reached its upper limit of performance and that MCS indexes are
scattered (for example, N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.28/Sum of N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.0
throughout N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.31 is greater than 10% and Sum of
N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.0 and N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.15/Sum of
N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.0 throughout N.ChMeas.PDSCH.MCS.31 is greater than 30%, in
full-day 24 hours). Under such conditions, the improvement can vary from 0% to 30%. If the
preceding conditions are not met, enabling this function does not produce negative
improvement.

5.3.4 Others
l UEs must support corresponding modulation schemes.

and do not support DL 256QAM or adaptation between DL 256QAM MCS index table
and DL 64QAM MCS index table.
