Detailed Documentation

This project implements a RACH (Random Access Channel) channel and corresponding receiver module using Simulink, designed to simulate the operational behavior of RACH channels and receiver systems. The module employs digital signal processing techniques including preamble detection algorithms, timing synchronization routines, and channel estimation methods to accurately model real-world scenarios. Through comprehensive simulation of RACH channel characteristics and receiver performance, engineers can effectively evaluate and optimize system parameters such as detection probability, false alarm rate, and synchronization accuracy. The implementation utilizes Simulink's communication system blockset for baseband processing and includes customizable parameters for channel conditions and receiver thresholds. This module serves dual purposes: as a practical tool for performance validation in wireless system development, and as an educational resource demonstrating fundamental concepts of random access procedures, correlation-based detection mechanisms, and adaptive thresholding techniques for engineering students.
