Implementation Margin in LTE

Implementation margin is used to include non-ideal receiver effects such as channel estimation errors, tracking errors, quantization errors, and phase noise.  This implementation margin or sensitivity degradation can be used to apply some margin to the link budget to account for devices from other vendors that may have larger tolerances from the specifications or for … Read more

Difference between DL and UL in LTE

what is main Difference between DL and UL in LTE ? OFDMA Advantages Robust against narrow-band co-channel interference Robust against Intersymbol interference (ISI) and fading High spectral efficiency Efficient implementation using FFT Drawbacks High Peak-to-Average Power Ratio The power limitation is more problematic in UL than in DL Signal with high PAPR will limit the … Read more

MULTIPLE ANTENNA TECHNOLOGY IN LTE

The use of multiple antenna technology allows the exploitation of the spatial domain as another new dimension. This becomes essential in the quest for higher spectral efficiencies With the use of multiple antennas the theoretically-achievable spectral efficiency scales linearly with the minimum of the number of transmit and receive antennas employed, at least in suitable … Read more
