For HSDPA Chip rate/spreading factor
1 QPSK code at SF 16 240
1 16-QAM at SF 16 240
1 64-QAM at SF 16 240
Codes
10 codes with 16QAM 720*10
15 codes with 16QAM 720*15
15 codes with 64QAM 1080*15
Theoretical max of HSDPA with one carrier = 15 Codes * 1440kbps 21.6 Mbps
Downlink Speed calculation in LTE
LTE is said to have speed upto 100 mbps in Downlink, following is the
calculation for it:
The speed is the number of bits that can be transmitted in DL in one
second with all the resources assigned to a single user. This is
thetheoreticalspeed (for political purposes), practical speeds will be less
that this as the control, broadcast channels, reference signals have to
beaccommodatedin the same resources.
The speed is calculated starting with the 100 Resource Blocks for 20 MHz.
Each Resource Block has 12 Resource Elements. With 1 sub-frame of
size 1 ms, there are 1000 sub-frames in 1 sec. Each subframe can carry 7
OFDMA symbols for Normal Cyclic Prefix. If 64 QAM modulation is used,
each symbol cancommunicate6 bits and with IQ multiplexing the number
of bits can be doubled.
Therefore the possible speed is:
100 Resource Blocks (for 20 MHz bandwidth)
X 12 Resource Elements per RB
X 1000 sub-frames per second (1 subframe = 1 ms)
X 7 symbols per sub-frame (Normal Cyclic Prefix)
X 6 (1 symbol in 64 QAM represents 6 bits)
X 2 (IQ multiplexing)
= 100.8 Mbps speed in DL
