 Most of the channels are same as LTE

 NR does not use CRS (Cell Specific Reference Signal)
 NR PDSCH requires DMRS whereas LTE PDSCH does not use DMRS as this is
understandable because NR PDSCH would require its own reference signal
(DMRS) since there is no CRS.
 DMRS (Demodulation Reference Signal) is associated with PBCH channel is
used to estimate RSRP (Reference signal received power) is calculated from
the received SS blocks at the UE
