MIMO, SIMO, MISO & SISO
SISO, SIMO, MISO, MIMO terminology

The different forms of antenna technology refer to single or multiple inputs and outputs. These are related to
the radio link. In this way the input is the transmitter as it transmits into the link or signal path, and the output
is the receiver. It is at the output of the wireless link.
therefore the different forms of single / multiple antenna links are defined as below:

SISO - Single Input Single Output

SIMO - Single Input Multiple output
MISO - Multiple Input Single Output
MIMO - Multiple Input multiple Output

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 4

TERMINOLOGY
MIMO - SISO
The simplest form of radio link can be defined in MIMO terms as SISO - Single Input Single Output. This is effectively a standard
radio channel - this transmitter operates with one antenna as does the receiver. There is no diversity and no additional processing
required.

The advantage of a SIS system is its simplicity. SISO requires no processing in terms of the various forms of diversity that may
be used. However the SISO channel is limited in its performance. Interference and fading will impact the system more than a
MIMO system using some form of diversity, and the channel bandwidth is limited by Shannon's law - the throughput being
dependent upon the channel bandwidth and the signal to noise ratio.

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 5

TERMINOLOGY
MIMO - SIMO
The SIMO or Single Input Multiple Output version of MIMO occurs where the transmitter has a single antenna and the receiver
has multiple antennas. This is also known as receive diversity. It is often used to enable a receiver system that receives signals
from a number of independent sources to combat the effects of fading. It has been used for many years with short wave listening /
receiving stations to combat the effects of ionospheric fading and interference.

SIMO has the advantage that it is relatively easy to implement although it does have some disadvantages in that the processing is
required in the receiver. The use of SIMO may be quite acceptable in many applications, but where the receiver is located in a
mobile device such as a cellphone handset, the levels of processing may be limited by size, cost and battery drain.
There are two forms of SIMO that can be used:
Switched diversity SIMO: This form of SIMO looks for the strongest signal and switches to that antenna.
Maximum ratio combining SIMO: This form of SIMO takes both signals and sums them to give the a combination. In this way,
the signals from both antennas contribute to the overall signal.

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 6

TERMINOLOGY
MIMO - MISO
MISO is also termed transmit diversity. In this case, the same data is transmitted redundantly from the two transmitter antennas.
The receiver is then able to receive the optimum signal which it can then use to receive extract the required data.

The advantage of using MISO is that the multiple antennas and the redundancy coding / processing is moved from the receiver
to the transmitter. In instances such as cellphone UEs, this can be a significant advantage in terms of space for the antennas
and reducing the level of processing required in the receiver for the redundancy coding. This has a positive impact on size, cost
and battery life as the lower level of processing requires less battery consumption.

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 7

TERMINOLOGY
MIMO
Where there are more than one antenna at either end of the radio link, this is termed MIMO - Multiple Input Multiple
Output. MIMO can be used to provide improvements in both channel robustness as well as channel throughput.

In order to be able to benefit from MIMO fully it is necessary to be able to utilise coding on the channels to separate the data from
the different paths. This requires processing, but provides additional channel robustness / data throughput capacity.

There are many formats of MIMO that can be used from SISO, through SIMO and MISO to the full MIMO systems. These are all
able to provide significant improvements of performance, but generally at the cost of additional processing and the number of
antennas used. Balances of performance against costs, size, processing available and the resulting battery life need to be made
when choosing the correct option.

eCoordinator
Adaptive frequency reuse pattern selection: The system automatically
selects an appropriate edge frequency allocation pattern for each cell.
The patterns for allocating cell edge frequencies are as follows:
Reuse1, Reuse3, and Resue6. These patterns can be flexibly used in
different scenarios. For example, reuse1 is used in the low interference
scenario, reuse3 is used in medium interference scenario and reuse6 Frequency: reuse=6
is used in the high interference with mass neighbor cells scenario.

ANR Classification

Based on neighbor relations, ANR is classified into intra-RAT ANR and

inter-RAT ANR.
Based on the methods of measuring neighboring cells, ANR is classified
into event-triggered ANR and fast ANR (also known as periodic ANR).

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 30

ANR Feature Benefit and influence
Benefit
ANR is a self-optimization function. It automatically maintains the integrity and effectiveness of
neighbor cell lists (NCLs) and neighbor relation tables (NRTs) to increase handover success
rates and improve network performance. In addition, ANR does not require manual
intervention, which reduces the costs of network planning and optimization.
Event ANR
Find the missing neighbor cells when handover measurement is reported, handover success rate and
call drop rate can be improved.
Fast ANR
Choose some UE to measure neighbor cells and report periodically, the neighbor cell relations can be
convergent more faster.

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 31

ANR Feature Benefit and influence
Influence
Event ANR
CGI report process will introduces extra delays in handovers of the UEs that meet the handover
conditions.
Fast ANR
In fast ANR processes, UE will report PCI periodically and read CGI when the neighbor cell is unknown.
In intra-frequency scene, periodical PCI reporting does not impact system performance, whereas CGI
reading interrupts UE services.
In inter-frequency and inter-RAT scene, periodical PCI reporting impacts UE throughput, and CGI
reading interrupts UE services.

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 32

Relation between ANR and others
Relation between ANR and others
Intra-RAT ANR
Intra-RAT ANR needs UE to support Long DRX cycle and ANR-related measurement. If
ANR measurements need to be performed, a temporary dedicated DRX cycle needs
to be configured for the UE. During this cycle, the UE obtains the CGIs of neighboring
cells in dormancy periods.
Intra-RAT ANR has an impact on Feature PCI Collision Detection & Self-Optimization.
When neighboring cell information changes because of intra-RAT ANR, PCI conflict
detection is triggered.
Inter-RAT ANR
Inter-RAT ANR needs UE to support Long DRX cycle and ANR-related measurement.
If ANR measurements need to be performed, a temporary dedicated DRX cycle
needs to be configured for the UE.

Intra-RAT Event ANR - Missing Neighbor Detection
By UE Measurement
1. The source eNodeB delivers the intra/inter-
frequency measurement configuration to the UE,
instructing the UE to measure neighboring cells that
work on the frequencies specified in the
measurement configuration.
2. The UE detects that the PCI of cell B meets the
measurement requirements, and reports the PCI to
the source eNodeB.
3. The source eNodeB checks whether its intra-RAT
NCL includes the PCI of cell B. If so, the procedure
ends. If not, the source eNodeB sends the
measurement configuration to the UE, instructing
the UE to read the ECGI, tracking area code (TAC),
and PLMN ID list of cell B.
4. The source eNodeB allows the UE to read these
parameters over the broadcast channel (BCH).
5. The UE reports the obtained parameter values to
the source eNodeB.

the M2000.
4. The M2000 queries the PCI, TAC, and PLMN ID list
of cell A based on the reported ECGI and sends
the parameters to the target eNodeB.
5. The target eNodeB adds cell A to the intra-RAT
NCL of cell B.

4G LTE Feature Performance| Page 35

Inter-RAT Event ANR
1. The source eNodeB delivers the inter-RAT measurement
configuration (including target RATs and ARFCNs) to the UE,
activates the measurement gap mode, and instructs the UE
to measure the neighboring cells that meet the
measurement requirements.
2. The UE detects that cell B meets the measurement
requirements and reports its scrambling code to cell A. If the
NCL of cell A does not include the scrambling code of cell B,
the source eNodeB proceeds to the next step.
3. The source eNodeB requests the UE to read the parameters
of cell B.
If cell B is a GERAN or UTRAN cell, the parameters to
be read are the CGI, location area code (LAC), and
routing area code (RAC).
If cell B is a CDMA2000 cell, only the CGI is to be read.
4. The source eNodeB schedules appropriate measurement
gaps to allow the UE to read the CGI and other parameters of
cell B over the BCH.
5. The UE reports the CGI and other parameters of cell B to the
source eNodeB.

Intra & Inter-RAT Fast ANR
When current UE number involved in fast ANR

When the specific UE measurements achieve
the threshold, the UE stop fast ANR report

When the total Ue number involved in fast ANR

achieve the threshold in the certain period, the
eNodeB will get into the state of monitoring or
start a new FastAnr Period .

Periodic UE measurements have a negative impact on the uplink throughput of

the network. Therefore, fast ANR restricts the number of concurrent UEs
involved in periodic measurements by several mechanisms.
