Functions and Architecture of PDCP in LTE

PDCP layer performs the following functions: 1. Header compression and decompression plane of the user data; 2. Security features: encryption and deciphering the user plane and control plane data; the protection of the integrity and operation of the plane data; 3. Provide support functions: order to delivery and reorder PDU to the layer above a … Read more

Paging in Detail for LTE UE

To receive E-UTRAN pagination, UEs in idle mode for monitoring PDCCH for the channel value used to indicate the pagination RNTI: RNTI-P. The EU needs only to monitor the PDCCH channel at certain specific times (i.e. the subframes are specified for individual radio frames introduction to the framework structure of the LTE radio.). At other … Read more

Frequency or RAT Evaluation for LTE UE

E-UTRAN configures a priority for all applicable frequencies for each RAT. In addition to the priorities of specific cells that are optionally provided by SI, E-UTRAN can assign specific EU priorities through dedicated signaling. Since frequencies are indicated in the information system, the EU is expected to take into account only the cell reselection which … Read more

Synchronization & BCH for TDD Frame in LTE

Synchronization & BCH for TDD Frame in LTE Synchronization: Purpose: Achieves alignment between the base station (eNodeB) and User Equipment (UE) in LTE Time-Division Duplex (TDD) frames. Methods: Time synchronization ensures proper timing, and frequency synchronization aligns the carrier frequency. Importance: Synchronization is critical for avoiding interference and optimizing signal reception. Broadcast Channel (BCH): Function: … Read more

Different Categories of UE in LTE

Different Categories of UE in LTE Categories of UE in LTE is divided by its function which is as per below. Functionality: eNB obtains the UE radio capabilities via: • The S1AP initial setup request message • The X2AP in case of handover • The RRC in any other cases eNB sends the UE radio … Read more

Which Cell Parameters needs to Obtain in LTE?

Which Cell Parameters needs to Obtain in LTE? To provide the most critical information to the UEs, the eNodeB uses the BCH channel The information is sent on pre-defined time-frequency resources. This information is organized into different information blocks: The MIB, the Master Information Block. System Frame Number DL -downlink System Bandwidth Number of Transmit Antennas … Read more

E-UTRAN (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network)

E-UTRAN (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network) E-UTRAN, or Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, is the radio access network component of the LTE (Long-Term Evolution) architecture. It plays a central role in providing high-speed wireless communication for mobile devices. Here’s a brief summary of E-UTRAN: Evolved NodeB (eNB): The fundamental building block of E-UTRAN … Read more

Affects of the Channel in LTE MIMO

Affects of the Channel in LTE MIMO To understand the impact of the channel, let’s assume that the base station receiver is facing many challenges in the same MIMO receiver that universal areas, but also must receive data simultaneously from multiple users. In terms of MIMO UM, each signal is derived from a separate UE, … Read more

WCDMA Network Architecture

WCDMA Network Architecture The Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) network architecture: 1. User Equipment (UE): The UE, often a mobile phone or data card, is the device used by the end-user to access the WCDMA network. 2. UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN): UTRAN is the radio access network in WCDMA, consisting of NodeB … Read more

RADIUS Protocol Stack in Wimax

RADIUS Protocol Stack in Wimax The RADIUS protocol stack in WiMAX is a vital authentication and authorization framework, facilitating secure access and management of WiMAX network resources. RADIUS is a protocol that enables a single server to become responsible for all remote access authentication, authorization, and auditing (or accounting) services. RADIUS functions as a client/server … Read more
