What is LTE?
LTE (Long Term Evolution) project by 3GPP (3 Generation Partnership Project) in collaboration between various communication companies. Evolved from AMPS -> GSM -> UMTS -> LTE Bandwidth evolution from 20 kHz -> 200 kHz -> 5 MHz -> 20 MHz
Main concepts Frequency of operation - Lower than other technologies OFDMA Improves spectral efficiency (ie., 30 users can get signals that are all different, so no interference with each other.) MIMO boost signal performance IP based flat architecture helps reduce complexity of base stations
MIMO Downlink: OFDMA Uplink: SC-FDMA Downlink: 100Mbps (20MHz, 2x2 MIMO) Uplink: 50Mbps (20MHz, 1x2)
FDD and TDD Localized Yes QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM 5 Mbps-12Mbps (downlink) 2 Mbps-5Mbps (uplink) 15ms 20MHz, 15MHz, 10MHz, 5MHz, 3MHz, and 1.5MHz
Peak Speeds
Duplexing Subcarrier mapping Subcarrier hopping Data modulation Average user throughput One-way airlink latency Bandwidth Spectrum
TDD Localized and distributed Yes QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM 2Mbps-4 Mbps (downlink) 500Kbps-1.5 Mbps (uplink) 50ms 3.5MHz, 5MHz, 7MHz, 8.75 MHz, 10 MHz
LTE can be deployed using various frequencies. In the US, a number of carriers use 700MHz which helps increase in-building coverage for wireless signals;

eMBMS
Introduced for WCDMA (UMTS) in Release 6 Supports multicast/broadcast services in a cellular system Same content is transmitted to multiple users located in a specific area (MBMS service area) in a unidirectional fashion MBMS extends existing 3GPP architecture by introducing:
MBMS Bearer Service delivers IP multicast datagrams to multiple receivers using minimum radio and network resources and provides an efficient and scalable means to distribute multimedia content to mobile phones MBMS User Services streaming services - a continuous data flow of audio and/or video is delivered to the users handset download services - data for the file is delivered in a scheduled transmission timeslot
eMBMS
Multimedia service can be provided by either: single-cell broadcast or multicellular mode (aka MBMS Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) In an MBSFN area, all eNBs are synchronized to perform simulcast transmission from multiple cells (each cell transmitting identical waveform) If user is close to a base station, delay of arrival between two cells could be quite large, so the subcarrier spacing is reduced to 7.5 KHz and longer CP is used Main advantages over technologies such as DVB-H or DMB:
no additional infrastructure operator uses resources that are already purchased user interaction is possible
eMBMS
MCE coordinates the synchronous multi-cell transmission The MCE can physically be part of the eNB ! flat architecture
CHICAGO, October 24, 2011 AT&T and Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS) are forming an alliance to develop and deliver next generation LTE wireless solutions for agencies and first responders whose lifesaving efforts depend on timely access to critical information.
Conclusion
Todays public safety networks need to provide interoperability across multiple locations and disciplines, along with secure, reliable support for mission-critical services. In addition, they must have the capacity to support emerging public safety applications, such as video, digital imaging, remote database access and messaging. These capabilities can accelerate response times when emergencies occur, improve situational awareness and play a vital role in planning and decision making. Technology does not need to be invented, only tailored to meet the needs of public safety.
