Core formula is based on 3GPP TS 38.306, clause 4.1.2 (supported max data rate for DL/UL).
NRB values are based on 3GPP TS 38.104, clause 5.3.2 transmission bandwidth configuration tables.
MCS context and modulation/code-rate ecosystem are defined in 3GPP TS 38.214 (PDSCH procedures and MCS tables).
This tool is a theoretical upper-bound estimator; scheduler limits, BLER targets, CQI dynamics, HARQ and traffic model reduce real field throughput.
