Introduction

LTE is a 3GPP standard that provides for an uplink speed of up to 50 megabits per second (Mbps) and a downlink speed of up to 100 Mbps. LTE will bring many technical benefits to cellular networks. Bandwidth will be scalable from 1.25 MHz to 20MHz.

Goals include
Significantly increase peak data rates, scaled linearly according to spectrum allocation improving spectral efficiency lowering costs improving services making use of new spectrum opportunities Improved quality of service better integration with other open standards

3GPP Evolution

Release 99 (2000): UMTS/WCDMA Release 5 (2002) : HSDPA Release 6 (2005) : HSUPA, MBMS(Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Services) Release 7 (2007) : DL MIMO, IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem), optimized real-time services (VoIP, gaming, push-to-talk). Release 8(2009?) :LTE (Long Term Evolution)
Long Term Evolution (LTE) 3GPP work on the Evolution of the 3G Mobile System started in November 2004. Currently, standardization in progress in the form of Rel-8. Specifications scheduled to be finalized by the end of mid 2008. Target deployment in 2010

Motivation

Need for higher data rates and greater spectral efficiency Can be achieved with HSDPA/HSUPA and/or new air interface defined by 3GPP LTE
Need for high quality of services Use of licensed frequencies to guarantee quality of services Always-on experience (reduce control plane latency significantly) Reduce round trip delay Need for cheaper infrastructure Simplify architecture, reduce number of network elements

Key Features of LTE

Multiple access scheme Downlink: OFDMA Uplink: Single Carrier FDMA (SC-FDMA) Adaptive modulation and coding DL modulations: QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM UL modulations: QPSK and 16QAM
Bandwidth scalability for efficient operation in differently sized allocated spectrum bands

Objective

To design LTE Model using 64QAM-OFDM and 16QAM-OFDM technique respectively. Furthermore I will analyse this model under different channel conditions on the basis of bit error rate,scatter plots and spectrum scope.

Methodology

Matlab Simulink

We will design an LTE Model using Matlab 7.9 Simulink. Simulink is a platform for multidomain simulation and model-based design of dynamic systems. It provides an interactive graphical environment.
