From the Transport to the Physical Channel in LTE

Last updated on | Categories 4G LTE
  • Transport channels are then mapped on the physical channels which are sent over the air interface
  • A CRC is calculated and appended to each TB. It allows the receiver to detect errors. It is used by retransmission mechanisms like H-ARQ
  • Depending on the Transport Format and the radio quality, the TB is coded and interleaved.
  • The H-ARQ is a process running in the UE and in the eNodeB to allow a fast retransmission in case of errors.
  • The resulting bit sequence is modulated and mapped on the sub-carriers of the Resource Block used for the transmission (one or several RBs).
  • The data are modulated and mapped on the sub-carriers.
  • The basic time-frequency unit is the Resource Block.

  • Visualization of Beam Forming in LTE

    Currently, beam forming is only applicable for TDD version of LTE. The time synchronous version of LTE TDD on uplink and downlink also makes the implementation of beam forming more attractive than in LTE FDD. Beam forming scheme is a signal processing technology that is used to direct radio transmission in a chosen angular direction. ... Read more

  • What protocols are used in LTE signaling?

    LTE (Long-Term Evolution) signaling involves the exchange of control and management information between different elements within the LTE network to establish and maintain communication sessions. Various protocols are employed to facilitate signaling in LTE, covering both the control plane and user plane functionalities. Let’s explore the key signaling protocols used in LTE: Control Plane Signaling ... Read more

  • What is the purpose of FFT and IFFT in OFDM?

    In Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) are key mathematical operations that serve crucial roles in the modulation and demodulation processes. OFDM is a widely used modulation scheme in modern communication systems, such as Wi-Fi, LTE, and digital broadcasting. FFT and IFFT operations are fundamental to ... Read more
