LTE-Advanced Signal Generation Using W1918 SystemVue

애플리케이션 노트

LTE-Advanced is specified as part of Release 10 of the 3GPP specifications and is now approved for 4G IMT-Advanced. This application note introduces key LTE-Advanced techniques, as well as how to use the Keysight Technologies, Inc. SystemVue W1918 LTE-Advanced library to generate various downlink (DL) orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) and uplink (UL) clustered DFT-spread-OFDM (DFT-S-OFDM) signal sources with MIMO, and to measure closed-loop throughput.

This application note also introduces LTE-Advanced enhancements to the MIMO channel models, which are available as simulation model set called the W1715 SystemVue MIMO channel builder. This optional model set facilitates simulation-based MIMO over-the-air (OTA) testing using real, observed antenna patterns and standard MIMO fading models, and overcomes a key challenge for 8-layer MIMO system analysis and verification.
