Fourth generation mobile networks (also called Long Term Evolution - LTE) will make use of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) technology to achieve very high data rates in both the uplink and downlink. MIMO is based on the use of multiple antenna systems within the mobile terminal as well as the base station. The small size of the mobile terminal poses series integration and antenna miniaturization...
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is an emerging 4G wireless access technology. Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems are a primary enabler of the high data rate sought to be achieved by LTE. Closed-Loop-Spatial-Multiplexing and Open-Loop-Spatial-Multiplexing are the two primary MIMO transmission modes used in the LTE downlink. An LTE Base Station (eNodeB) is expected to select and switch transmission...
Closed-loop transmission combined with MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) and OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) technologies have drawn most attentions during development of the 4G systems (fourth generation of mobile communication systems). In LTE (Long Term Evolution) and LTE-Advanced systems, which are proposed by 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) to be the most competitive...
It has been recognized that a primary method of further enhancing the spectral efficiency of LTE Release-8 is to improve support for multi-user (MU) MIMO transmission in the downlink in an efficient manner. This paper investigates the performance improvements due to the enhanced support of single-cell MU-MIMO within the framework of LTE evolution (specifically LTE Release-9 and Release-10 also known...
In this paper the performance of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system in the UTRAN Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard is evaluated by means of ergodic system capacity in low (3 km/h), medium (30 km/h) and high (120 km/h) mobility scenarios. The impact of adaptive modulation as well as Hybrid ARQ (HARQ) with Chase Combining to the distribution of effective SINR is established analytically and...
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is an emerging 4G wireless access technology. It is showing a lot of promise in field trials and gaining acceptance among the major wireless vendors such as Verizon-Vodafone, NTT-Docomo, KDDI, China Mobile, T-Mobile and others. Multi-Antenna or Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems which involve the use of more than one antenna at the transmitter and receiver are...
Until recently, mobile communication tasks have been grouped into different layers in a hierarchical layer approach. In this conventional approach, layer-specific protocols are developed and optimised independently. As new wireless applications emerge, requiring high data rates and flexibility for supporting applications with significantly varying QoS requirements, it has become imperative that a...
The mobile Internet has finally arrived with the sky-rocketing usage increase of HSPA. LTE, WiMAX and evolved WiFi are the upcoming wireless standards which are based on OFDM and MIMO. The mentioned standards have already started the evolution process with LTE-advanced, IEEE 802.16m and IEEE 802.11n. New technology building blocks are on its way like cooperative MIMO, relaying and self-organizing...
This paper considers the Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) capacity enhancement considering the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology, in the downlink, including the effects of system bandwidth and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) efficiency. Firstly, the system bandwidth efficiency is calculated for LTE framework. Then, the SNR efficiency using Adaptive...
