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

Twin-Timescale Radio Resource Management for Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Vehicular Networks
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage radio resource allocation problem is formulated based on a novel twin-timescale perspective for avoiding the frequent exchange of near-instantaneous CSI.

On the analysis of channel-aware schedulers in OFDMA-based networks using FFR
TL;DR: This paper presents an analytical framework that is used to optimise the FFR parameters in OFDMA networks when using channel-aware scheduling policies and different optimisation designs of the F FR component are proposed that allow a tradeoff between throughput performance and fairness.

Statistical Analysis and Optimization of a Fifth-Percentile User Rate Constrained Design for FFR/SFR-Aided OFDMA-Based Cellular Networks
TL;DR: This paper presents a novel optimal fifth-percentile user rate constrained design for FFR/SFR-based networks that clearly outperforms previous schemes in terms of throughput fairness control due to a more rational compromise between average cell throughput and cell-edge ICIC.

Fiber link design considerations for cloud-Radio Access Networks
TL;DR: Whether for digitized or analog links, it is shown that appropriate framing structure parameters must be used to assure performance, especially of time-division duplex systems.
