    Bug-fix in Up-link with respect to PUSCH RE calculation when PTRS is enabled. · f4631f21
    Parminder Singh authored
    Problem STATEMENT:
    - When enabling PTRS flag in ulsim, there are multiple scrambling and decoding errors
      are observed even with high SNR values
      SNR 60dB   errors_scrambling 5546/13800
      Channel BLER 1.000000e+00, Channel BER 4.018841e-01
    
    ANALYSIS:
    - While extracting PTRS RE's, the PUSCH RE count was not updated accordingly for PTRS symbols.
    - This results in 0 value LLR's on same positions which cause offset issue in later processing.
    
    IMPLEMENTATION:
    * nr_ulsch_demodulation.c
    - In case of PTRS symbol, respective total number of PTRS RE's are subtracted from available
      PUSCH RE's in each PUSCH Symbol processing.
    
    TESTING
    * ulsim.c
    - PTRS are enabled for testing and are not enabled by default by this commit.
    - Available bit count is adjusted if PTRS is enabled.
    
    VERIFICATION
    - Total Scrambling errors after gNb processing shall be only 250 bits (in K=2)
      which were replaced with PTRS at UE side while transmission.
      SNR 60....
