Serving Gateway(S-GW) :
User plane node which connects EPC to E-UTRAN Acts as a mobility anchor when Terminals move between eNodeBs Mobility Anchor for other 3GPP technologies (GSM,HSPA) Collecting information for charging purposes
OFDM
Why ?
Data Rate
ISI
< 0 > 0
FT
Inside Coherence BW channel passes all freq. components with equal gain and linear phase
Freq. Selective Fading : W Non Freq. Selective Fading
> f0 : W < f0
Symbol rate not increased in order to achieve high data rates. Instead of that Available BW breaks in to many narrower subcarriers and modulate generated symbols to these subcarriers. These subcarriers then combine linearly and transmit (OFDM symbol).
OFDM Modulation
OFDM demodulation
Transmission
: OFDM Transmission
0
Why Orthogonal ?
Two modulated OFDM subcarriers and are mutually orthogonal over the time interval m t < (m+1)
Overlapping Subcarriers
Spectral Efficiency
OFDM Symbol
Generated by Multiplexing several overlapping subcarriers and a Cyclic Prefix (CP).
CP
Modulated Subcarriers
Cyclic Prefix added to the beginning of the OFDM symbol in order to eliminate IBI At the Receiver CP is removed and only the information bearing part is further processed .
OFDMA : In each OFDM symbol interval, Different subsets of the overall set of available subcarriers are used for transmission to different terminals.
Why MIMO?
Significant increase in Spectral efficiency and data rates - Spatial Multiplexing High QoS - Spatial diversity Wide Coverage - Spatial diversity SISO Channel Capacity : MIMO Channel Capacity (MIMO system with MN antenna configuration) :
B : Channel Bandwidth SINR : Signal to Interference plus Noise ratio
=
Channel impulse responses (are determined by transmitting reference signals from each transmitting antenna.
SC FDMA (DFTS-OFDM)
Why not Multi Carrier OFDM in Uplink ?
One of the main drawbacks in OFDM : Large instantaneous power variations in the Transmitting signal This leads to High Peak-to-Average-Power Ratio (PAPR) in the Power Amplifier. Power Amplifier Efficiency Power Amplifier Cost Hence Multicarrier OFDM is not a Viable solution for Low power Mobiles
In OFDM, each subcarrier carries information relating to one specific Symbol In SC-FDMA, each subcarrier contains information of All Transmitted symbols. Hence no need of transmitting with High Power. Signal energy is distributed among sub carriers.

Resource Element
Physical Resource Block (PRB) allocation is done by the scheduling function in eNodeB PRB is the smallest element of resource allocation assigned by the base station scheduler.
As Identical information is transmitted from transmitters (time aligned), UEs in Cell edge can utilize received power of several surrounding cells to detect / decode broadcasted data.
