eNodeB

Evolved NodeB or with abbreviated version eNodeB is a major part of LTE network structure. If we compare eNodeB with NodeB which is used in WCDMA network, there is a big difference between two nodes. Most of the main functionalities READ MORE

B2 Inter-Technology Handover in LTE

Inter-Technology Handover means mobility in connected mode between two different cells and different technology. This topic will be assigned to Event B2 which is used for LTE Inter-Technology handover. This event type is also known as Inter-RAT or Inter-System handover. READ MORE

A5 Inter-Frequency Handover in LTE

Inter-Frequency Handover means mobility in connected mode between two different cells and different LTE frequencies, This topic will be assigned to Event A5 which is used for LTE Inter-Frequency handover. This event type is a little bit different than Inter-Frequency READ MORE

A4 Inter-Frequency Handover in LTE

Inter-Frequency Handover means mobility in connected mode between two different cells and different LTE frequencies, This topic will be assigned to Event A4 which is used for LTE Inter-Frequency handover. It is recommended to have a look HO Events in READ MORE

A3 Intra-Frequency Handover in LTE

Intra-Frequency Handover means mobility in connected mode between two different cells, but within same LTE frequency, This topic will be assigned for Event A3 which is used for LTE Intra-Frequency handover. This event type can also be used for Inter-Frequency READ MORE

Handover Events in LTE

Normally LTE UE makes radio measurement in two stages which are idle and connected states. In idle state mode the measurement is used for cell selection and cell re-selection. In connected state mode, the measurement is used for handover and READ MORE

Carrier Aggregation

Until 3GPP Release 10, we could achieve maximum 150 Mbps downlink throughput with 20 MHz bandwidth, but in 3GPP Release 10 a new mark of LTE was introduced where several frequencies can be aggregated. The new mark of LTE was READ MORE

Long Term Evolution

Long-Term Evolution or with abbreviated version LTE is a standard for high-speed wireless communication. It is based on the GSM/EDGE and UMTS/HSPA technologies. First step of LTE starts from 3GPP Release 8. Currently we can see three marks of LTE which are separated from each other according to the READ MORE

OFDMA

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access or with abbreviated version OFDMA is a methodology of digital data, that a signal is splitted into multiple carrier frequencies (subcarriers). OFDMA is a multi-user version of OFDM scheme. OFDMA allows multiple users to transmit READ MORE
