Introduction of LTE PHY- DL Physical Signals(2)


Synchronization Signal:
p p

synchronization signals are used for time-frequency synchronization between UE and E-UTRAN during cell search. synchronization signal comprise two parts: n Primary Synchronization Signal, used for symbol timing, frequency synchronization and part of the cell ID detection. n Secondary Synchronization Signal, used for detection of radio frame timing, CP length and cell group ID.

Characteristics:
p

The bandwidth of the synchronization signal is 72 subcarrier, locating in the central part of system bandwidth, regardless of system bandwidth size. Synchronization signals are transmitted only in the 1st and 11th slots of every 10ms frame. The primary synchronization signal is located in the last symbol of the transmit slot. The secondary synchronization signal is located in the 2nd last symbol of the transmit slot.

Caution: Synchronization signals are sometimes named as Synchronization Channel (P-SCH & S-SCH) in some documents. The meaning should be the same, which represents the signals transmitted in the specified time-frequency locations. Please dont be confused with Share Channel (SCH).

Introduction of LTE PHY- UL Physical Signals


Reference Signal:
p

Freq

The uplink pilot signal, used for synchronization between E-UTRAN and UE, as well as uplink channel estimation. Two types of UL reference signals: n DM RS (Demodulation Reference Signal), associated with PUSCH and PUCCH transmission. n SRS (Sounding Reference Signal), without associated with PUSCH and PUCCH transmission.
Freq

Allocated UL bandwidth of one UE

DM RS associated with PUSCH is mapped to the 4th symbol each slot


Time

Characteristics:
p

Each UE occupies parts of the system bandwidth since SCFDMA is applied in uplink. DM RS only transmits in the bandwidth allocated to PUSCH and PUCCH. The slot location of DM RS differs with associated PUSCH and PUCCH format. Sounding RSs bandwidth is larger than that allocated to UE, in order to provide the reference to e-NodeB for channel estimation in the whole bandwidth. Sounding RS is mapped to the last symbol of sub-frame. The transmitted bandwidth and period can be configured. SRS transmission scheduling of multi UE can achieve time/frequency/code diversity.

DM RS associated with PUCCH (transmits UL ACK signaling) is mapped to the central 3 symbols each slot
Time Freq

DM RS associated with PUCCH (transmits UL ACK signaling) is mapped to the 2 symbols each slot

CautionThe SRS mapping will be difference in many documents, since the protocol are still under discussion when these document been compiled. The mapping shown in this slide is the result from the latest protocol version.

System bandwidth

PUCCH is mapped to up & down ends of the system bandwidth, hopping between two slots.

Introduction of LTE PHY- Cell Search


Basic Principle of Cell Search:
p

Initial Cell Search:


p

Cell search is the procedure of UE synchronizes with E-UTRAN in time-freq domain, and acquires the serving cell ID. Two steps in cell search: n Step 1: Symbol synchronization and acquirement of ID within Cell Group by demodulating the Primary Synchronization Signal; n Step 2: Frame synchronization, acquirement of CP length and Cell Group ID by demodulating the Secondary Synchronization Signal.

The initial cell search is carried on after the UE power on. Usually, UE doesnt know the network bandwidth and carrier frequency at the first time switch on. UE repeats the basic cell search, tries all the carrier frequency in the spectrum to demodulate the synchronization signals. This procedure takes time, but the time requirement are typically relatively relaxed. Some methods can reduce time, such as recording the former available network information as the prior search target. Once finish the cell search, which achieve synchronization of time-freq domain and acquirement of Cell ID, UE demodulates the PBCH and acquires for system information, such as bandwidth and Tx antenna number. After the procedure above, UE demodulates the PDCCH for its paging period that allocated by system. UE wakes up from the IDLE state in the specified paging period, demodulates PDCCH for monitoring paging. If paging is detected, PDSCH resources will be demodulated to receive paging message.

About Cell ID
p

In LTE protocol, the physical layer Cell ID comprises two parts: Cell Group ID and ID within Cell Group. The latest version defines that there are 168 Cell Group IDs, 3 IDs within each group. So totally 168*3=504 Cell IDs exist.

cell (1) (2) N ID = 3N ID + N ID


p

(1) N ID (2) N ID

represents Cell Group ID, value from 0 to 167; represents ID within Cell Group, value from 0 to 2.

Caution: 170 Cell ID groups are defined in the earlier


protocol version. So totally 170*3=510 Cell IDs exists, which is mentioned in some early-written documents. Please be noticed this differences.

Introduction of LTE PHY- Random Access


Basic Principle of Random Access :
p

Detail Procedure of Random Access:


p

Random access is the procedure of uplink synchronization between UE and E-UTRAN. Prior to random access, physical layer shall receive the following information from the higher layers:
n

Physical Layer procedure is triggered upon request of a preamble transmission by higher layers. The higher layers request indicates a preamble index, a target preamble received power, a corresponding RA-RNTI and a PRACH resource . UE determines the preamble transmission power is preamble target received power + Path Loss. The transmission shall not higher than the maximum transmission power of UE. Path Loss is the downlink path loss estimate calculated in the UE. A preamble sequence is selected from the preamble sequence set using the preamble index. A single preamble is transmitted using the selected preamble sequence with calculated transmission power on the indicated PRACH resource. UE Detection of a PDCCH with the indicated RA-RNTI is attempted during a window controlled by higher layers. If detected, the corresponding PDSCH transport block is passed to higher layers. The higher layers parse the transport block and indicate the 20-bit grant.
RA-RNTI: Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identifier

Random access channel parameters: PRACH configuration, frequency position and preamble format, etc. Parameters for determining the preamble root sequences and their cyclic shifts in the sequence set for the cell, in order to demodulate the random access preamble.

Introduction of LTE PHY- Power Control


Basic Principle of Power Control:
p

Downlink Power Control:


p

Downlink power control determines the EPRE (Energy per Resource Element); Uplink power control determines the energy per DFTSOFDM (also called SC-FDMA) symbol.

The transmission power of downlink RS is usually constant. The transmission power of PDSCH is proportional with RS transmission power. Downlink transmission power will be adjusted by the comparison of UE report CQI and target CQI during the power control.

Uplink Power Control:


p

Uplink power control consists of opened loop power and closed loop power control. A cell wide overload indicator (OI) is exchanged over X2 interface for integrated inter-cell power control, possible to enhance the system performance through power control. PUSCH, PUCCH, PRACH and Sounding RS can be controlled respectively by uplink power control. Take PUSCH power control for example:

UE report CQI DL Tx Power

X2
UL Tx Power System adjust parameters

PPUSCH (i) = min {PMAX ,10 log 10 (M PUSCH (i)) + PO_PUSCH (j) + (j) PL + TF (i) + f(i)}
p

PUSCH power control is the slow power control, to compensate the path loss and shadow fading and control inter-cell interference. The control principle is shown in above equation. The following factors impact PUSCH transmission power PPUSCH: UE maximum transmission power PMAX, UE allocated resource MPUSCH, initial transmission power PO_PUSCH, estimated path loss PL, modulation coding factor TF and system adjustment factor f (not working during opened loop PC)

LTE Key Technology OFDMA & SC-FDMA


OFDM & OFDMA
OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is a modulation multiplexing technology, divides the system bandwidth into orthogonal subcarriers. CP is inserted between the OFDM symbols to avoid the ISI. OFDMA is the multi-access technology related with OFDM, is used in the LTE downlink. OFDMA is the combination of TDMA and FDMA essentially. Advantage: High spectrum utilization efficiency due to orthogonal subcarriers need no protect bandwidth. Support frequency link auto adaptation and scheduling. Easy to combine with MIMO. Disadvantage: Strict requirement of time-frequency domain synchronization. High PAPR.

DFT-S-OFDM & SC-FDMA


DFT-S-OFDM (Discrete Fourier Transform Spread OFDM) is the modulation multiplexing technology used in the LTE uplink, which is similar with OFDM but can release the UE PA limitation caused by high PAPR. Each user is assigned part of the system bandwidth. SC-FDMASingle Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Accessingis the multi-access technology related with DFT-S-OFDM.

Compared with single carrier system, OFDM will cause high peak-to-average ratio (PAR), which will caused problem for the amplifier design and increase the UE implementation cost accordingly.

The main difference between OFDMA and SC-FDMA is that the latter performs DFT before performing IFFT for transmission, which can be taken as a time-domain precoding operation.

LTE Key Technology MIMO


Downlink MIMO
MIMO is supported in LTE downlink to achieve spatial multiplexing, including single user mode SUMIMO and multi user mode MU-MIMO. In order to improve MIMO performance, pre-coding is used in both SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO to control/reduce the interference among spatial multiplexing data flows. The spatial multiplexing data flows are scheduled to one single user In SU-MIMO, to enhance the transmission rate and spectrum efficiency. In MUMIMO, the data flows are scheduled to multi users and the resources are shared within users. Multi user gain can be achieved by user scheduling in the spatial domain.
Pre-coding vectors User1
User 1 data User 1 data User 2 data

Uplink MIMO
Due to UE cost and power consumption, it is difficult to implement the UL multi transmission and relative power supply. Virtual-MIMO, in which multi single antenna UEs are associated to transmit in the MIMO mode. Virtual-MIMO is still under study. Scheduler assigns the same resource to multi users. Each user transmits data by single antenna. System separates the data by the specific MIMO demodulation scheme. MIMO gain and power gain (higher Tx power in the same time-freq resource) can be achieved by VirtualMIMO. Interference of the multi user data can be controlled by the scheduler, which also bring multi user gain.

Cell Interference Control


ICICInter-Cell Interference Coordination
p

ICIC is one solution for the cell interference control, is essentially a schedule strategy. In LTE, some coordination schemes, like SFR (Soft Frequency Reuse) and FFR (Fractional Frequency Reuse) can control the interference in cell edges to enhance the frequency reuse factor and performance in the cell edges.

SFR Solution
p

SFR is one effective solution of inter-cell interference control. The system bandwidth is separated into primary band and secondary band with different transmit power.
The primary band is assigned to the users in cell edge. The eNB transmit power of the primary band can be high. Secondary Band Power

The total system bandwidth can be assigned to the users in cell center. The eNB transmit power of the secondary band should be reduced in order to avoid the interference to the primary band of neighbor cells.
