Reworking beam structures at NR MAC gNB

Francesco Mani requested to merge NR_gNB_reworking_beam_structures into develop

This MR introduces a reworked beam structure for analog beamforming procedures at MAC gNB. It is configurable via config file with the following parameters:

  • set_analog_beamforming: to enable analog beamforming
  • beamforming_period: to set the number of slots tied to a given beam (depending on how fast the RU can switch beams)
  • beams_per_period: to set the number of parallel beams that can be transmitted at the same time

In this MR the beam structure is applied only to RA procedures.
