SC-FDMA Receiver Benefits in LTE

Benefits of SC-FDMA Receiver in LTE Low Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR): SC-FDMA (Single-Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access) exhibits a lower PAPR compared to other modulation schemes, reducing the demand for power amplifiers with high linearity. Improved Power Efficiency: Lower PAPR contributes to improved power efficiency, making SC-FDMA well-suited for mobile devices with limited battery capacity. … Read more

LTE Sub-carrier

LTE Sub-carrier How Many Sub Carrier in LTE? Read below,..There are different kinds of sub-carriers: Data sub-carrier Pilot Sub-carrier DC sub-carrier Guard Sub-carrier The result is intersymbol interference not only within a subcarrier but also between subcarriers. To prevent symbols from overlapping and to reduce the intersymbol. DC stands for Direct Current and it is … Read more

OFDM Receiver and How it work for LTE?

The receiver is like in any other radio system the more complicated part. In radio systems and of course also OFDM there are two special points a receiver has to pay attention to: time/phase and frequency synchronization. Both are crucial for the performance of the receiver. A receiver gets its input from the antenna (or … Read more

BENEFITS OF LTE/EPC

Fully packet-oriented mobile broadband network providing: – Peak data rates of 100 Mbps (DL) and 50 Mbps (UL) – Very low latency – Seamless and lossless handover – Sophisticated QoS to support important real time applications such as voice, video and interactive gaming – Support for terminal speeds of 150-500 Km/h and cell ranges of … Read more

What are the Advantages of OFDMA in Wimax ?

 OFDMA is essentially a hybrid of FDMA and TDMA: Users are dynamically assigned subcarriers (FDMA) in different time slots (TDMA) . The advantages of OFDMA start with the advantages of single-user OFDM in terms of robust multipath suppression and frequency diversity. In addition, OFDMA is a flexible multiple-access technique that can accommodate many users with … Read more

The Benefit of OFDM & OFDMA in Wimax

Less complex modulation. OFDM is a simpler modulation technique that is better suited to deployments that do not require support for mobility.  License-exempt bands. Mobile services require licensed spectrum to provide coverage in wide areas. Fixed deployments, however, have often successfully used license-exempt bands in areas where interference levels are acceptable. For this reason, most … Read more

OFDMA Transmitter in LTE

How OFDMA Transmitter in LTE ? In the downlink, OFDM is selected to efficiently meet E-UTRA performance requirements. With OFDM,  it is straightforward to exploit frequency selectivity of the multi-path channel with lowcomplexity receivers.  This allows frequency selective in addition to frequency diverse scheduling and one cell reuse of  available bandwidth. Furthermore, due to its … Read more

Notion of Orthogonality in LTE

In FDM, the sub-carriers are separated in the frequency domain to avoid interference between the sub-channels It results in a loss of spectrum efficiency because the frequency guard band can not be used to send data. The OFDM allows one to remove the frequency guard band.   Benefit: There are more sub-carriers, so more symbols … Read more

Ways to transmit training symbols: preamble or pilot tones in Wimax

There are two ways to transmit training symbols: preamble or pilot tones. Preambles entail sending a certain number of training symbols prior to the user data symbols. In the case of OFDM, one or two preamble OFDM symbols are typical. Pilot tones involve inserting a few known pilot symbols among the subcarriers. Channel estimation in … Read more
