The design of the LTE physical layer (PHY) is heavily influenced by requirements for high peak transmission rate (100 Mbps DL/50 Mbps UL), spectral efficiency, and multiple channel bandwidths (1.25-20 ...
Engineers preparing to measure long-term evolution (LTE) face many challenges. For one, LTE introduces orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) into the cellular world. It also brings ...
