Page 15

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)


In an OFDM system, a very high rate data stream is divided into multiple parallel low rate data streams. This is possible with orthogonal frequencies. Each smaller data stream is then mapped to individual data sub-carrier and modulated using some sorts of PSK (Phase Shift Keying) or QAM (Quadrate Amplitude Modulation). i.e. BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM.

.........

.........
Orthogonal Sub carriers OFDM makes more efficient use of available spectrum. Sub-carrier spectrum overlaps, BUT orthogonally means that all sub-carriers (except the wanted one) are zero at the decision point. Spectrum has been saved with no loss in performance.

Frequency

Page 16

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA)


OFDMA employs multiple closely spaced sub-carriers, but the subcarriers are divided into groups of sub-carriers. Each group is named a sub-channel. The sub-carriers that form a sub-channel need not be adjacent. In the downlink, a sub-channel may be intended for different receivers. In the uplink, a transmitter may be assigned one or more subchannels.

.........

Frequency Sub channel A Sub channel B Sub channel C


Page 17

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA):


Subchannelization defines sub-channels that can be allocated to subscribers depending on their channel conditions and data requirements. Using subchannelization, within the same time slot a evolved Node B (eNB) can allocate more transmit power to users with lower SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio), and less power to user devices with higher SNR. Subchannelization also enables the eNB to allocate higher power to sub-channels assigned to indoor subscribers resulting in better in-building coverage. Subchannelization in the uplink can save a user device transmit power because it can concentrate power only on certain sub-channel(s) allocated to it. This powersaving feature is particularly useful for battery-powered user devices.

Why OFDM: Robustness against multipaths using a large number of narrow-band sub-carriers (serial to parallel conversion) Ease of scheduling of time/frequency resources High spectral efficiency Excellent enabler for multiple antennas (MIMO) For even higher data rate support (> 10 x 3G-WCDMA)

Physical control format indicator channel (PCFICH): Informs the UE about the number of OFDM symbols (1, 2,3 or 4) used for the PDCCHs; Transmitted in every subframe. Mapped to the first OFDM symbol in a downlink subframe. Carries the Control Format Indicator (CFI). Physical downlink control channel (PDCCH): Informs the UE about the resource allocation, and hybrid-ARQ information related to DL-SCH and PCH; Carries the uplink scheduling grant. Scheduling grants are provided to Layer 2. Physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH): Carries the DL-SCH. Physical multicast channel (PMCH): Carries the MCH.

Page 96

MIMO: (Multiple Input Multiple Output antennas)

MIMO creates multiple parallel channels between transmitter and receiver. MIMO is using time and space to transmit data (space time coding).
MIMO is a family of techniques:

Use multiple channels to send the same information stream to achieve diversity (transmit diversity) improve coverage and robustness of data transmission
Use multiple channels to send multiple information streams (spatial multiplexing) increase throughput
Page 97

Downlink MIMO:
Spatial Multiplexing: Spatial multiplexing allows to transmit different streams of data simultaneously on the same downlink resource block(s). These data streams can belong to one single user (single user MIMO / SU-MIMO) or to different users (multi user MIMO / MU-MIMO). While SU-MIMO increases the data rate of one user, MU-MIMO allows to increase the overall capacity. Spatial multiplexing is only possible if the mobile radio channel allows it! Transmit Diversity: Instead of increasing data rate or capacity, MIMO can be used to exploit diversity. Transmit diversity schemes are already known from WCDMA release 99 and will also form part of LTE as one MIMO mode. In case the channel conditions do not allow spatial multiplexing, a transmit diversity scheme will be used instead, so switching between these two MIMO modes is possible depending on channel conditions. Transmit diversity is used when the selected number of streams (rank) is one.

Page 98

Uplink MIMO:
Uplink MIMO schemes for LTE will differ from downlink MIMO schemes to take into account terminal complexity issues. For the uplink, MU-MIMO (Virtual MIMO) can be used. Multiple user terminals may transmit simultaneously on the same resource block. This is also referred to as Spatial Domain Multiple Access (SDMA). The scheme requires only one transmit antenna at UE side which is a big advantage. The UEs sharing the same resource block have to apply mutually orthogonal pilot patterns. To exploit the benefit of two or more transmit antennas, but still keep the UE cost low, antenna subset selection can be used. In the beginning, this technique will be used, e.g. a UE will have two transmit antennas but only one transmit chain and amplifier. A switch will then choose the antenna that provides the best channel to the eNB. MU-MIMO will be the first LTE uplink implementation.

Spatial Domain Multiple Access:


In operation, multiple mobile terminals may transmit simultaneously on the same channel or channels, but they do not cause interference to each other because mutually orthogonal pilot patterns are used. This techniques is also referred to as Spatial Domain Multiple Access (SDMA).

Air interface is OFDMA (DL) / SC-FDMA (UL) in TDD and FDD

modes not TD-CDMA or W-CDMA as in 3G. No macro diversity (no soft handover). LTE is exclusively packet-switched and IP-based. Voice and other services previously delivered over the CS Core network in UMTS are provided via a packet switched IP core and IMS. CS Core network does not exist. A key target of SAE is the interworking of multiple access networks under the same packet-switched core network (GERAN, UTRAN, WLAN). So the SAE has two major goals: Become the Core Network for LTE. Integrate legacy 3GPP and non-3GPP access network in the same architecture.

Page 120

REL.8: Lte (Long term evolution):

The RAN network elements are compressed and pushed to the network edge:
The NodeB and most of the RNC functions are combined to create an element known as the eNB. The Iu-PS interface in UMTS becomes the S1 interface in LTE. The S-GW takes the UP core network functions. The MME takes the Mobility management functions.

Page 121

REL.8: Lte (SAE):

In the System Architecture Evolution (SAE) network architecture, the Core network elements of SGSN and GGSN are replaced by a number of entities: The SGSN control-plane functions become the Mobility Management Entity (MME). Some RNC functions, the SGSN user plane functions and the GGSN are incorporated into the Serving Gateway (SGW) and 3GPP Anchor. The split of functionality between S-GW and 3GPP anchor is not decided. In addition there is an SAE Anchor, which provides the S2 interface for non-3GPP access systems such as WLAN, etc..

The eNB hosts the following functions: Functions for Radio Resource Management: Radio Bearer Control, Radio Admission Control, Connection Mobility Control, Dynamic allocation of resources to UEs in both uplink and downlink (scheduling); IP header compression and encryption of user data stream; Selection of an MME at UE attachment when no routing to an MME can be determined from the information provided by the UE; Routing of User Plane data towards Serving Gateway; Scheduling and transmission of paging messages (originated from the MME); Scheduling and transmission of broadcast information (originated from the MME or O&M); Measurement and measurement reporting configuration for mobility and scheduling.

The MME hosts the following functions (see 3GPP TS 23.401): NAS signalling; NAS signalling security; AS Security control; Inter CN node signalling for mobility between 3GPP access networks; Idle mode UE reach ability (including control and execution of paging retransmission); Tracking Area list management (for UE in idle and active mode); PDN GW and Serving GW selection; MME selection for handovers with MME change; SGSN selection for handovers to 2G or 3G 3GPP access networks; Roaming; Authentication; Bearer management functions including dedicated bearer establishment.
Page 123

S-GW, PDN-GW:
The Serving Gateway (S-GW) hosts the following functions (see 3GPP TS 23.401): The local Mobility Anchor point for inter-eNB handover; Mobility anchoring for inter-3GPP mobility; E-UTRAN idle mode downlink packet buffering and initiation of network triggered service request procedure; Lawful Interception; Packet routeing and forwarding; Transport level packet marking in the uplink and the downlink; Accounting on user and QCI granularity for inter-operator charging; UL and DL charging per UE, PDN, and QCI. The PDN Gateway (P-GW) hosts the following functions (see 3GPP TS 23.401): Per-user based packet filtering (by e.g. deep packet inspection); Lawful Interception; UE IP address allocation; Transport level packet marking in the downlink; UL and DL service level charging, gating and rate enforcement; DL rate enforcement based on AMBR;

S1-AP (S1 Application Protocol) (TS 36.413):


An EP (Elementary Procedure) consists of an initiating message and possibly a response message. Two kinds of EPs are used: Class 1: Elementary Procedures with response (success and/or failure). Class 2: Elementary Procedures without response. For Class 1 EPs, the types of responses can be as follows: Successful: A signalling message explicitly indicates that the elementary procedure successfully completed with the receipt of the response. Unsuccessful: A signalling message explicitly indicates that the EP failed. On time supervision expiry (i.e. absence of expected response). Successful and Unsuccessful: One signalling message reports both successful and unsuccessful outcome for the different included requests. The response message used is the one defined for successful outcome.
Class 2 EPs are considered always successful.

PDCP Functions:

The Packet Data Convergence Protocol supports the following functions:


-header compression and decompression of IP data flows using the ROHC protocol, at the transmitting and receiving entity, respectively; -transfer of data (user plane or control plane). This function is used for conveyance of data between users of PDCP services; -maintenance of PDCP sequence numbers for radio bearers mapped on RLC AM; -in-sequence delivery of upper layer PDUs at handover; -duplicate elimination of lower layer SDUs at handover for radio bearers mapped on RLC AM; -ciphering and deciphering of user plane data and control plane data; -integrity protection and integrity verification of control plane data; -timer based discard.

Automated Configuration of Physical Cell Identity:

The physical cell identity, or L1 identity (Phy_ID), is an essential configuration parameter of a radio cell, it corresponds to a unique combination of one orthogonal sequence and one pseudo-random sequence, and 504 unique Phy_IDs are supported leading to unavoidable reuse of the Phy_ID in different cells. When a new eNB is brought into the field, a Phy_ID needs to be selected for each of its supported cells, avoiding collision with respective neighbouring cells.
