19. Major Difference in LTE and existing Wi-
Max
LTE-Advance Wi-Max
LTE-A uses different channels bandwidth from 1.4 MHz to
100 MHz
WiMAX uses channels bandwidths up to 40 MHz
LTE uses different modulation for uplink (SC-FDMA) and
downlink (OFDMA).
WiMAX uses the same modulation for both uplink and
downlink – SOFDMA
LTE frame duration is 10 ms. Wi-Max frame duration is 5 ms.
LTE is compatible and enables coexistence and roaming
between LTE and 3G.
WiMAX network doesn’t support legacy systems like 2G
and 3G.
Sector Coverage ranges up to 1.5 KM. Wi-Max sector coverage ranges up to 6 KM
Capable of supporting up to 200 users per 5MHz. Capable of supporting up to 100 users per 10MHz.

20. Advantages of LTE over Wi-max
 LTE-A is only true 4G technology.
 LTE is back compatible with previous mobile technologies like GSM, GPRS, UMTS,
EDGE, WCDMA, HSPA, CDMA-one, CDMA2000, EV-DO, EV-DV and the
synchronous SC-CDMA
 LTE enables much greater speed for its mobile users – up to 450 km/h
 LTE is a better technology in regards to power consumption of mobile devices due
to use of SC-FDMA for uplink

21. Spectral Efficiency in LTE-Advance
 Spectrum efficiency or bandwidth efficiency refers to the information rate that can be
transmitted over a given bandwidth in a specific communication system.
 It is a measure of the quantity of users or services that can be simultaneously supported
by a limited radio frequency bandwidth in a defined geographic area.
 It may for example be defined as the maximum aggregated throughput.
 spectral efficiency of a digital communication system is measured in bit/s/Hz

22. Carrier Aggregation in LTE-Advanced
 One of the major features of LTE-Advanced is Carrier Aggregation.
 It allows mobile network operators to combine a number of separate LTE carriers.
 It enables them to increase the peak user data rates and overall capacity of their
networks and to exploit fragmented spectrum allocations.
 Carrier aggregation is used in LTE-Advanced in order to increase the bandwidth,
and thereby increase the bitrate.
 The target figures for data throughput in the downlink is 1 Gbps for 4G LTE
Advanced.
 Each aggregated carrier is referred to as a component carrier.
 The component carrier can have a bandwidth of 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15 or 20 MHz and a
maximum of five component carriers can be aggregated.
 The number of aggregated carriers can be different in DL and UL, however the
number of UL component carriers is never larger than the number of DL
component carriers.

23. Carrier Aggregation in LTE-Advanced

24. Significance of Carrier Aggregation
 Increasing the number of users and the total bandwidth supported in both the
downlink and the uplink.
 Supporting a greater number of frequency bands and combinations of frequency
bands.
 Using Carrier Aggregation between cells to enhance the support of small cells and
Heterogeneous Networks
 Enabling flexible aggregation of FDD and TDD LTE carriers.
 Supporting LTE Carrier Aggregation between licensed and unlicensed spectrum.

25. A Brief Look on MIMO Feature in LTE
 MIMO: Multiple Input Multiple Output technology is uses multiple antennas to make
use of reflected signals to provide gains in channel robustness and throughput.
 A major change in LTE-Advanced is the introduction of 8x8 MIMO in the DL and 4x4 in
the UL.
 MIMO can be used when S/N (Signal to Noise ratio) is high, i.e. high quality radio
channel.
 MIMO system was used to limit the degradation caused by multipath propagation.
 MIMO is effectively a radio antenna technology as it uses multiple antennas at the
transmitter and receiver to enable a variety of signal paths to carry the data, choosing
separate paths for each antenna to enable multiple signal paths to be used.

26. A brief description on 4T4R Antennae used
in Wi-tribe proposed LTE
 At the very beginning of the cellular network, antennas with only
one vertical-polarized dipole column are applied to support 1T1R
(1 transmitting and 1 receiving).
 Since the capacity becomes a major challenge in the mobile
broadband (MBB) era, MIMO enables multiple antennas to
transmit and receive signals on both the uplink and downlink.
 Generally, at least 2 x 2 MIMO antennas are required for LTE.
 And 4 x 4 MIMO antennas are required for LTE-Advanced.

30. A brief description on 8T8R Antennae used
in Wi-tribe proposed LTE
 8T8R antennae/radio is predominately used to maximize TDD LTE network capacity
and management efficiency for operators.
 TDD 8T8R solution provides more capacity and better interference control to
overcome propagation loss and interference challenges.
 Huawei releases the smart EasyRET 3.5GHz 8T8R antenna to perfectly meet the
demand of TDD 8T8R large-scale deployment.
 The smart EasyRET 3.5GHz 8T8R antenna supports three innovative features,
Beamforming, soft split and Easybeam, for TDD network capacity boost and
network efficiency enhancement.
 8T8R Beamforming: by using TDD 8T8R Beamforming solution, network capacity
can be improved about 20% than TDD 4T4R Beamforming.
 Soft split: soft split solution which support one 65° beam splitting into two 33°
beams greatly enhances network capacity. 8T8R soft split improve about 30%
network capacity than 8T8R Beamforming.
