In 4G LTE and 5G New Radio (NR), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been the undisputed king of physical layer multi-carrier waveforms. OFDM works exceptionally well in static or low-speed environments like homes, offices, and walking speeds. However, as we move toward 6G—where devices communicate on high-speed bullet trains (350+ km/h), in low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites moving at 28,000 km/h, and in autonomous vehicle-to-everything (V2X) swarms—OFDM hits

5G NR Resource Grid Visualizer is an interactive tool that renders the complete time-frequency structure of a 5G New Radio radio frame (10ms) across configurable bandwidths from 5–100 MHz and subcarrier spacings of 15/30/60/120 kHz, automatically computing the correct number of resource blocks per 3GPP TS 38.101. It maps all major physical channels and signals — SSB (PSS/SSS/PBCH), CORESET 0, PDCCH, PDSCH, PUSCH, PUCCH, PRACH, and both DL/UL DMRS — onto the resource grid at t

1. Introduction The exponential growth in mobile data traffic, driven by 4K/8K video, cloud gaming, AR/VR, industrial IoT, and private 5G networks, has forced wireless systems to evolve beyond traditional antenna systems. One of the most transformative technologies enabling 5G performance is Massive MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output). Unlike conventional MIMO (2x2, 4x4, 8x8), Massive MIMO scales antenna elements to tens or even hundreds at the base station, enabling spatia
