Radio Link Control RLC in LTE

Here i write about Radio Link Control -RLC in LTE in a simple word. The RLC layer is located between the PDCP ( the “top” layer) layer and MAC layer (the “lower” layer). Communicates with the PDCP layer through a service access point ( SAP ) , and the MAC layer via logical channels. The … Read more

LTE UE Accessibility Verification and Speed Scaling

UE Accessibility Verification If the best cell on the LTE frequency have banned or are protected, up to exclude This cell from cell selection list. In that case may consider UE the cell on the same frequency, if banned cell indicates (by using fields ‘ intraFreqReselection ‘ in SIB1), intra-frequency selection is not allowed for … Read more

What to Consider for TDD Specific Frequency Planning in LTE

Here I write on LTE TDD Specific Frequency Planning Considerations. What to consider and why for TDD Frequency Planning. It is very common for telecom Operators within the TDD band of LTE have a wider unpaired spectrum than the bandwidth defined maximum carrier bandwidth of 20MHz. As a result, the selection of carrier bandwidth for … Read more

How Inter-RAT Mobility performs in LTE

Here I write on How Inter-RAT Mobility performs in LTE, means Handover to LTE and Mobility from LTE. Handover to LTE Procedure for handover of LTE is largely the same as the handover procedure in LTE. The main difference is that the handover to LTE AS a whole-configuration must be signaled, and the LTE it … Read more

Beam Forming background for LTE

Multiple antennas in LTE may also be used to transmit the same signal appropriately weighted for each antenna element such that the effect is to focus the transmitted beam in the direction of the receiver and away from interference, thereby improving the received SINR. The beam-forming weight vector should increase the antenna gain in the … Read more

How Spatial Multiplexing Matrix Using Two Antenna Ports in LTE

Spatial multiplexing is where multiple independent streams are transmitted across multiple antennas. If the receiver also has multiple antennas, the streams can be separated out using spatial multiplexing. Instead of increasing diversity, multiple antennas in this case are used to increase the data rate or capacity of the system. In a rich multipath environment, the … Read more

LTE Ray Tracing Model

The LTE Ray Tracing Model involves analyzing electric wave propagation by using the ray tracing method and obtaining the field strength of received signals through theoretical calculation. Some LTE network uses the higher part of the UHF band such as 2.3 GHz and 2.6 GHz. The wavelength of the radio wave is several centimeters. Therefore, … Read more

Definition of LTE Interference Margin

Here I write Interference Margin in simple word and basic definition of interference margin in LTE. Let understands it. Interference margin accounts for the increase in the terminal noise level caused by the interference from other users. LTE uplink is orthogonal if it is within the same cell so there is no intra-cell interference. However, … Read more

How TTI Bundling for LTE link Budget

Here I just review how TTI Bundling for LTE link budget first lets see what link budget feature overview. Features Overview Below is a quick summary of specific features and their corresponding impact on the radio network link budget result if the features or functionalities are deployed. TTI Bundling By repeating the same uplink information, … Read more

Interference between Different Carriers and within same carrier in LTE

Absence of synchronization is one of the main sources of interference between TDD based systems belonging to different carriers. The figure below provides a quick view of what will happen if there is asynchronous situation between different networks. Scenarios (a) and (c) described below clearly indicate inter-carrier interference. Implementation of time synchronization equipment such as … Read more
