Focus

3GPP Long Term Evolution is the new UMTS standard making use of latest technologies such as OFDMA/SC-FDMA based access, frequency based scheduling, MIMO and higher order modulation. LTE promises to deliver peak data rates, as well as reduced latency, while keeping deployment cost and terminal complexity at a low level. The scalable OFDM technology (ranging from 1.4MHz up to 20MHz) allows a flexible spectrum allocation in existing and new 3G frequency bands. LTE is the natural evolution of GSM/GERAN and UMTS/HSPA network technologies, making 3GPP standards competitive over other cellular standards in the next decade. The standardisation of LTE was completed in 2009 and a large number of commercial networks are already deployed around the world. LTE will also be the basis for a new 4G standard called LTE Advanced.
This course provides a detailed understanding of the physical layer and the radio protocol of LTE radio access network as defined in the 36-series of 3GPP specification of Release 8/9. The course first introduces the fundamentals of the OFDM/SC-FDMA based physical layer as well as the principles of MIMO technology. Next physical layer numerology, processing and related procedures are explained, in particular link adaptation, L1/2 control signaling, radio resource management and scheduling algorithms are covered. As part of the training all LTE physical layer data and control channels in up- and downlink are explained in detail and the mapping to physical resources is described. Following the LTE technology overview, a short outlook to the 4G standard LTE Advanced, delivering data rates up to 1 Gbps, is provided.
