3GPP Releases


3GPP is working on two approaches for 3G evolution: the LTE and the HSPA Evolution
HSPA Evolution is aimed to be backward compatible while LTE do not need to be backward compatible with WCDMA and HSPA By the end of 2007, 3GPP R8 is released as the first specs of LTE

Basic principles of OFDM




Transmission by means of OFDM can be seen as a kind of multi-carrier transmission.

al

pt

Due to the fact that two modulated OFDM subcarriers are mutually orthogonal, multiple signals could be transmitted in parallel over the same radio link, the overall data rate can be increased up to M times.

pt :

Why use OFDM?




al

Efficient use of radio spectrum includes placing modulated carriers as close as possible without causing Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI)

pt


In order to transmit high data rates, short symbol periods must be used, In a multi-path environment, a shorter symbol period leads to a greater chance for Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI).

pt

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) addresses both of these problems: OFDM provides a technique allowing the bandwidths of modulated carriers to overlap without interference (no ICI). It also provides a high date rate with a long symbol duration, thus helping to eliminate ISI.

Cyclic-prefix insertion
 

al

Time dispersion on the radio channel may cause ISI To deal with this problem, cyclic-prefix insertion is typically used in case of OFDM transmission

pt

The last NCP samples of the IFFT output block of length N is copied and inserted at the beginning of the block, increasing the block length from N to N +NCP. At the receiver side, the corresponding samples are discarded before OFDM demodulation

pt

pt :

ar

al

Subcarrier orthogonality will then be preserved also in case of a time-dispersive channel, as long as the span of the time dispersion is shorter than the cyclic-prefix length.

Advantage of OFDM


al

High spectrum efficiency - the bandwidth of each subcarrier would be adjacent to its neighbors, so there would be no wasted spectrum

pt

With multiple subcarriers transmitting in parallel, long symbol duration is used, thus OFDMA is more tolerant to multi-path environment and better entitled to eliminate ISI (inter symbol interference)

pt

pt :

Especially with a cyclic prefix, inter-symbol interference could be minimized

ar

al

OFDM is flexible in allocating power and rate optimally among narrowband sub-carriers (scheduling)

pt

pt

Frequency diversity could be enabled due to the wide spectrum

pt

The drawback of OFDM is the high peak-to-average ratio of the transmitted signal, which greatly decrease the efficiency of the linear amplifiers This is especially critical for the uplink, due to the high importance of low mobile-terminal power consumption and cost.

SC-FDMA in uplink


al

pt

SC-FDMA, which has much in common with OFDMA, such as multicarrier technology and guard interval protected symbol, but much higher power amplifier efficiency (lower PAPR) is adopt in uplink. SC-FDMA is just the DFT-S-OFDM, which can be seen as an OFDM system with a DFT pre-coding. The localized RB distribution makes each user occupy consecutive part of the whole bandwidth, which looks like a single carrier.

Inter-cell interference coordination




By restricting the transmission power of parts of the spectrum in one cell, the interference seen in the neighbouring cells in this part of the spectrum will be reduced, This part of the spectrum can then be used to provide higher data rates for users in the neighbouring cell
