attention is given to LTE’s use of multiple antenna techniques—in
particular, Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)—and to a new
modulation scheme called single carrier frequency division multiple
access (SC-FDMA) that is used in the LTE uplink. Also, because the
accelerated pace of LTE product development calls for measurement
tools that parallel the standard’s development, this application note

1 LTE Concepts
1.1 Introduction
Third-generation UMTS, based on wideband code-division multiple access
(W-CDMA), has been deployed all over the world. To ensure that this system
remains competitive in the future, in November 2004 3GPP began a project to
define the long-term evolution of UMTS cellular technology. The specifications
related to this effort are formally known as the evolved UMTS terrestrial radio
access (E-UTRA) and evolved UMTS terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN),
but are more commonly referred to by the project name LTE. The first version of
LTE is documented in Release 8 of the 3GPP specifications.
A parallel 3GPP project called System Architecture Evolution (SAE) is defining
a new all-IP, packet-only core network (CN) known as the evolved packet core
(EPC). The combination of the EPC and the evolved RAN (E-UTRA plus E-UTRAN)
is the evolved packet system (EPS). Depending on the context, any of the terms
LTE, E-UTRA, E-UTRAN, SAE, EPC and EPS may get used to describe some or all
of the system. Although EPS is the only correct term for the overall system, the
name of the system will often be written as LTE/SAE or simply LTE.
3GPP’s high-level requirements for LTE include reduced cost per bit, better
service provisioning, flexible use of new and existing frequency bands, simplified
network architecture with open interfaces, and an allowance for reasonable power
consumption by terminals. These are detailed in the LTE feasibility study, 3GPP
Technical Report 25.912 [1], and in the LTE requirements document, 25.913 [2].
Figure 1. LTE development lifecycle
A timeline for LTE development is shown in Figure 1. This includes the work of
3GPP in drafting the specifications as well as the conformance test activities of
the Global Certification Forum (GCF) and the trials being carried out by the LTE/
SAE Trial Initiative (LSTI). The LSTI is an industry forum and complementary group
who are working in parallel with 3GPP and GCF with the intent of accelerating the
acceptance and deployment of LTE as the logical choice of the industry for next
generation networks. The work of LSTI is split into four phases. The first phase
is proof of concept of the basic principles of LTE and SAE, using early prototypes
not necessarily compliant with the specifications. The second phase is interoper-
ability development testing (IODT), which is a more detailed phase of testing using
standards-compliant equipment but not necessarily commercial platforms. The
third stage is interoperability testing (IOT), which is similar in scope to IODT but
uses platforms that are intended for commercial deployment. The final phase is
friendly customer trials, which will run until mid-2010 when GCF is expected to
certify the first UE against the 3GPP conformance tests. Dates beyond mid-2009
are estimates, and actual dates will depend on industry conditions and progress.

1.2 Summary of LTE requirements
To meet the requirements for LTE outlined in 25.913, LTE aims to achieve the
following:
• Increased downlink and uplink peak data rates, as shown in Table 1. Note that
the downlink is specified for single input single output (SISO) and multiple
input multiple output (MIMO) antenna configurations at a fixed 64QAM
modulation depth, whereas the uplink is specified only for SISO but at
different modulation depths. These figures represent the physical limitation
of the frequency division duplex (FDD) air interface in ideal radio conditions
with allowance for signaling overheads. Lower rates are specified for
specific UE categories, and performance requirements under non-ideal radio
conditions have also been developed. Comparable figures exist in 25.912 for
TDD.
• Scalable channel bandwidths of 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15, and 20 MHz in both the
uplink and the downlink
• Spectral efficiency improvements over Release 6 high speed packet access
(HSPA) of three to four times in the downlink and two to three times in the
uplink
• Sub-5 ms latency for small internet protocol (IP) packets
• Performance optimized for low mobile speeds from 0 to 15 km/h, supported
with high performance from 15 to 120 km/h; functional support from 120 to
350 km/h, under consideration for 350 to 500 km/h
• Co-existence with legacy standards while evolving toward an all-IP network

1.3 History of the UMTS standard
Table 2 summarizes the evolution of the 3GPP UMTS specifications towards LTE.
Each release of the 3GPP specifications represents a defined set of features. A
summary of the contents of any release can be found at www.3gpp.org/releases.
The date given for the functional freeze relates to the date when no further new
items can be added to the release. Any further changes to the specifications are
restricted to essential corrections.
After Release 99, 3GPP stopped naming releases after the year and opted for a
new scheme that started with Release 4. Release 4 introduced the 1.28 Mcps
narrow band version of W-CDMA, also known as time domain synchronous code
division multiple access (TD-SCDMA). Following this was Release 5, in which
high speed downlink packet access (HDSPA) introduced packet-based data
services to UMTS in the same way that the general packet radio service (GPRS)
did for GSM in Release 97 (1998). The completion of packet data for UMTS was
achieved in Release 6 with the addition of high speed uplink packet access
(HSUPA), although the official term for this technology is enhanced dedicated
channel (E-DCH). HSDPA and HSUPA are now known collectively as high speed
packet access (HSPA). Release 7 contained the first work on LTE/SAE with the
completion of the feasibility studies, and further improvements were made to
HSPA such as downlink MIMO, 64QAM on the downlink, and 16QAM on the
uplink.
In Release 8, HSPA continues to evolve with the addition of numerous smaller
features such as dual cell HSDPA and 64QAM with MIMO. The main work in
Release 8, however, is the specification of LTE and SAE. Work beyond Release 8
is also in progress whereby LTE will be enhanced in Release 10 and put forward
as LTE-Advanced, a candidate technology for the International Telecommunica-
tions Union (ITU) IMT-Advanced program, better known as 4G.

There are other standardization activities within 3GPP not shown in Table 2
such as those for the GSM Enhanced RAN (GERAN) and the Internet Protocol
Multimedia Subsystem (IMS).
