LTE general
LTE focus is on
ƒ Enhancement of the Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (UTRA)
ƒ Optimisation of the UTRAN architecture

LTE Background LTE Targets

Significantly increased peak data rates
Expectations of additional Increased cell edge bit rates
3G spectrum allocations
Improved spectrum efficiency
Improved latency
Scaleable bandwidth
Demand for higher data
Reduced CAPEX and OPEX
rates
LTE Acceptable system and terminal
complexity, cost and power
Greater flexibility in consumption
frequency allocations Compatibility with earlier releases and
with other systems
Optimised for low mobile speed but also
supporting high mobile speed
Continued cost reduction

KRnet 2006 8/26

LTE current working assumption

Downlink based on OFDMA

ƒ OFDMA offers improved spectral efficiency,
capacity, etc

Uplink based on SC-FDMA (single carrier)

ƒ SC-FDMA is technically similar to OFDMA but is
better suited for uplink from hand-held devices
- (more considerations on battery power)

For both FDD and TDD modes

Macro-diversity (soft handover) is not used.

Closing Remarks

3G LTE is one of strong migration paths

toward IMT-Adv.

Smooth migration from 3G LTE and IMT-Adv. Is

key for success in market

However, other migration paths are also

important for consideration.

We will continue to lead technology and

standardization in 3G LTE and IMT-Adv.
