The parametric statistical channel models discussed thus far in the chapter do not take into
account specific wireless propagation environments. Although exactly modeling a wireless
channel requires complete knowledge of the surrounding scatterers, such as buildings and
plants, the time and computational demands of such a methodology are unrealistic, owing to the

Figure 2.3 Multipath propagation

2.2.1.5 Flat Fading and Frequency-Selective Fading


Signal scattering and multipath propagation together produce rapid fluctuations in the strength of signals received at a base station as a cellular phone
moves through its service area. These fluctuations are due to differences in
received signal strength at locations spaced on the order of the wavelength
of the carrier frequency of the transmitted signal. This phenomenon is usually referred to as fast fading to distinguish it from shadow fading. The
differences in received signal strength associated with shadow fading are
noticeable at locations spaced in the order of tens of meters whereas fast
fading signals result from signal strength differences at locations spaced on
the order of a few centimeters.
The effect of fast fading on received cellular signals depends on the relationship of signal bandwidth to the width of the frequency response of the

administrative rules as in the case of rst- and second-generation cellular systems. The
total duplex bandwidth available to a user is Dn + Un . If asymmetrical downlink and
uplink trafc volume is anticipated, Dn does not necessarily have to be the same as Un ,
although in conventional systems it is typical for the downlink and the uplink bandwidths
to be equal.
The duplex frequency separation is chosen largely to make the design of duplexing
waveguides or circuitry at a terminal practical. For a full duplex system, a terminal will
be sending and receiving simultaneously so that both the downlink and the uplink channels are active. If a single antenna is used, which is the economical approach, the device
known as a duplexer at the remote terminal must separate the signals being received on Dn
from those being transmitted on Un . The design of duplex lters to accomplish this task
becomes more difcult and problematic as f decreases. Since the uplink and the downlink signals are different, signal leakage of one into the other represents interference and

ailable. The lower band is used for the uplink (connection from the MS to the BS). The upper
nd is used for the downlink. The frequency spacing between the uplink and downlink for any
ven connection is 45 MHz. Therefore, relatively cheap duplex filters are sufficient for achieving

For GSM1800, the frequency ranges are 1,7101,785 MHz for the uplink, and 1,8051,880 MHz

next task is to attempt to remove the ISI within each OFDM symbol. As described in Chapter 3,
when an input data stream x[ n] is sent through a linear time-invariant Finite Impulse Response
(FIR) channel h[ n] , the output is the linear convolution of the input and the channel:

y[ n] = x[ n]* h[ n] . However, lets imagine computing y[ n] in terms of a circular convolution:

part of the block as shown in Figure 2.14. As in OFDM, the CP prevents
inter-block interference. It also ensures that the convolution of the channel

convolution. This matches the signal processing performed by the channel

Methodologie

A lemetteur,
seule la statistique du canal base sur un SINR

equivalent
est necessaire
pour choisir le MCS.
PER = f (MCS, SINR, N)
ou` N est la taille du mot de code.
En pratique, seul lindex du MCS est fourni. Ce dernier est

calcule au recepteur
en fonction des estimations du canal
disponible. Cet index est appele CQI (channel quality index),

Ensuite, determiner
une relation entre CQI = g(h, N), ou` h est

un vecteur qui depend


du canal en reception.

Cette relation est determiner


en utilisant une mesure de qualite
du lien (Link Quality Metric, LQI). On a alors la relation
PER = f (MCS, LQI, N)

ers, and the majority of the protocols are not
capable of handling errors in the payload either.
Therefore, a fundamental design choice for LTE
has been not to propagate any bit errors to higher layers but rather to drop or retransmit the
entire data unit containing bit errors. As illus-

positive acknowledgment, and thereby causing a


residual packet loss, is in the order of 10 4 to
103. It would be expensive, in terms of transmit
power, to reduce the feedback error rate further
and thereby, to ensure the desired very low
residual loss rates required by TCP for achieving

this message. Consequently, errors or loss of the


ARQ feedback can be detected and recovered
by sending another RLC status. Upon reception
of the RLC status message, the ARQ transmitter
triggers a retransmission of the corresponding
RLC PDU(s). The HARQ layer does not
attempt to combine the RLC retransmission
with the previous transmission but treats it as
new data.

14.3. Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (H-ARQ)

In a typical
HS-DPCCH ARQ mechanism, the receiver sends an acknowledge (ACK)
message to UE1
the sending station when a data block has been successfully received,
ACK + CQI
NACK + CQI ACK + CQI NACK + CQI ACK + CQI NACK + CQI
e.g. by CRC checksum comparison. When the checksum calculated by the receiver
HS-DPCCH
does not match the checksum included within the
transmitted data block, the
UE2
receiver will send a negative acknowledge (NACK) to ACK
the+ CQI
sender and discard the
erroneous block. This so-called Stop and Wait (SAW) method is not very efficient
