How to calculate number of TDD flexible slots?

Hello All.

From these Nokia parameters, how to conclude how many flexible slots are there and what is config for flexible slot?

tddFrameStructure

  • frameStructureType: tdLte
  • guardPeriodLength: 4Symbols
  • lteToNrFrameShift: 0ms
  • tdLteUlDlConfig: tdLteConfig2
  • ulDlDataSlotRatio: 2/8

I understand 4 symb are guard period, remaining 10 are distributed like 8 DL 2 UL so 8-4-2 dl-gp-ul in flexible slot. Is this understanding right?

It depends on guardPeriodLength.

If is set to 4-> LTE SSF configuration 7 is assumed (10 DL- 2 SP- 2 UL)
If is set to 6-> LTE SSF configuration 6 is assumed (9 DL- 3 SP- 2 UL)

If we convert LTE SSF-7 (10-2-2) to 30KHz NR structure → (20-4-4)
First 14 symbols out of 20 are used for dedicated DL slot and hence special slot left with 6-4-4
