MIMO is one of the techniques used in LTE Release 8 to achieve very high data rates. A field trial was performed in a pre-commercial LTE network. The objective is to investigate how well MIMO works with realistically designed handhelds in band 13 (746-756 MHz in downlink). In total, three different handheld designs were tested using antenna mockups. In addition to the mockups, a reference antenna...
Cell isolation or the inter-cell interference is an important characteristic of radio networks. The cell isolation together with link performance limits the achievable user throughput and the capacity for a 1-reuse link adaptive packet access systems such as LTE. In this paper, cell isolation is measured as geometry factors and assessed through UE measurements in two different networks utilizing different...
In a loaded 1-reuse cellular network as e.g. 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) the inter-cell interference limits the user bitrate for link adaptive packet data access. The cell isolation together with the link performance defines the spectrum efficiency and the achievable gain of higher order modulation or other link improving features. In this paper the cell isolation is measured as geometry factor...
The 3GPP LTE standard for mobile broadband includes multi-antenna transmission modes that improve performance, both in terms of coverage, spectral efficiency and peak throughput. The antenna system design, both at the eNB and at the UE is critical to a well performing system; it should be designed with the intended performance profile in mind. Field trials were performed in order to investigate the...
Interference cancellation (IC) is one identified key technology to enhance WCDMA uplink performance. The goal of this contribution is to highlight the relative uplink system capacity improvement available for WCDMA, especially in realistic typical urban radio environments when employing receiver implementations including realistic channel estimation, searcher, and so forth. The performance of the...
