Based on the bestseller "3G Evolution - HSPA and LTE for mobile broadband" and reflecting the ongoing success of LTE throughout the world, this book focuses on LTE with full updates including LTE-Advanced to provide a complete picture of the LTE system. Overview and detailed explanations are given for the latest LTE standards for radio interface architecture, the physical layer, access procedures, broadcast, relaying, spectrum and RF characteristics, and system performance. Key technologies presented include multi-carrier transmission, advanced single-carrier transmission, advanced receivers, OFDM, MIMO and adaptive antenna solutions, advanced radio resource management and protocols, and different radio network architectures. Their role and use in the context of mobile broadband access in general is explained. Both a high-level overview and more detailed step-by-step explanations of the LTE/LTE-Advanced implementation are given. An overview of other related systems such as GSM/EDGE, HSPA, CDMA2000, and WIMAX is also provided. This book is a 'must-have' resource for engineers and other professionals in the telecommunications industry, working with cellular or wireless broadband technologies, giving an understanding of how to utilize the new technology in order to stay ahead of the competition. The authors of the book all work at Ericsson Research and have been deeply involved in 3G and 4G development and standardisation since the early days of 3G research. They are leading experts in the field and are today still actively contributing to the standardisation of LTE within 3GPP. Includes full details of the latest additions to the LTE Radio Access standards and technologies up to and including 3GPP Release 10Clear explanations of the role of the underlying technologies for LTE, including OFDM and MIMO Full coverage of LTE-Advanced, including LTE carrier aggregation, extended multi-antenna transmission, relaying functionality and heterogeneous deploymentsLTE radio interface architecture, physical layer, access procedures, MBMS, RF characteristics and system performance covered in detailread more

Performance Analysis of Fiber-Optic Inband Relaying in the Presence of Self-Interference
TL;DR: It is shown that the performance of fiber-optic relaying is superior to that of double-hop relaying and the theoretical desired-to-undesired-signal ratio due to the interference is discussed in terms of the carrier frequency, radio propagation condition, and optical fiber length.

Non-Orthogonal Coded Access for Contention-Based Transmission in 5G
TL;DR: It is shown through both link level and system level simulations that in dense urban scenario NOCA-PIC scheme is capable of working in highly overloaded system conditions and can support more than 4 times concurrent random access number compared with OFDM based CB transmission.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for determining a metric of radio frequency channel quality for idle channels in LTE and LTE advanced networks
TL;DR: In this paper, a metric of radio frequency channel quality for idle channels is proposed for which a plurality of reference symbols transmitted by a transmitter for an idle channel state when user data and control channel data are not transmitted over the radio frequency channels are disclosed.
