Long Term Evolution (LTE) provides an improved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) compared to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), to distribute multimedia content to multiple users. To this end, LTE uses unicast communication as well as broadcast and multicast communication combined with a Single Frequency Network (SFN). The first part of this report describes the ...

In this paper we evaluate the performance of LTE-Downlink System with different Transmit diversity and Spatial multiplexing MIMO modes in LTE-downlink. Here we analysis performance on BLER-Block Error Rate and Data Throughput vs SNR-Signal to Noise Ratio. Two Transmit Diversity schemes Space Frequency Block Codes (SFBC) and Frequency Switched Transmit Diversity (FSTD) and two Spatial Multiplexi...

Mobile technology plays a vital role that is developing extremely fast in present time. With the increase in higher demand for higher date rate and large user experience. Larger peak rates, larger coverage and throughputs, and lower time for transmission and reception, which results with the better user experience is being supported by LTE-Advanced (is also familiar as LTE Release-10) remarkabl...

To meet the overwhelming demand for high data rate mobile applications, 3GPP long-term evolution (LTE) is quickly developing around the world as a major step forward in cellular technology. In December 2009, the world’s first commercial LTE service opened by TeliaSonera in Stockholm and Oslo. In September 2010, the first US commercial LTE service launched by MetroPCS in Las Vegas and Dallas. On...

This paper examines the feasibility of Long Term Evolution (LTE)-based passive radar for detecting ground moving targets. Specifically, the focus of this paper is to describe the proposed LTE-based passive radar system and to conduct an experiment using a real LTE eNB transmitter as an illumination source. Seven scenarios were carried out to investigate the detection performance of the proposed...

Cross-technology communication (CTC) was proposed in recent literature as a way to exploit the opportunities of collaboration between heterogeneous wireless technologies. This paper presents LtFi, a system which enables to set-up a CTC between nodes of co-located LTE-U and WiFi networks. LtFi follows a two-step approach: using the air-interface LTE-U BSs are broadcasting connection and identifi...

The demands for traffic and services through the mobile networks are ever increasing. Multi-tier has become a major trend in the design of new generations of mobile networks such as advanced long term evolution ( LTE-A) networks in order to support the high capacity demand required for multiservice traffic in wireless networks. Picocell emerged as one of the key radio access techniques for LTE-...

Achieving a tighter level of aggregation between LTE and Wi-Fi networks at the radio access network (a.k.a. LTE-Wi-Fi Aggregation or LWA) has become one of the most prominent solutions in the era of 5G to boost network capacity and improve end user's quality of experience. LWA offers flexible resource scheduling decisions for steering user traffic via LTE and Wi-Fi links. In this work, we propo...

The combination of MIMO and OFDM becomes a key standardization work for the downlink channel in 3G Long-Term Evolution (3G-LTE). This paper studies one of the core techniques of 3G-LTE downlink: the coding and decoding schemes in a time-variable multipath environment. It discusses the MIMO schemes for 3G-LTE downlink, the STBC/SFBC, SFTC/STTC and Group layered SFC coding-decoding schemes. This ...

In this paper, we propose a new scheme for data transmission in Long Term Evolution (LTE) methods based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). In OFDM scheme we compare Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) based OFDM with wavelet based technique. In this method, DWT-COIFLET (Discrete wavelet transform) is used for wavelet decomposition, we compare COIFLET wavelet with traditional wav...
