LTE Physical Layer services assume multiple port antenna systems are used.Multiple port antenna

systems are implemented for the following reasons:

• Improved transmission reliability

• Greater coverage or range

• Reduced UE power consumption

• Increased transmission throughput

Multiple port antenna systems include the following:

• Single Input Multiple Output (SIMO)

• Multiple Input Single Output (MISO)

• Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)

In a SIMO configuration the transmitter (usually the UE) has one transmitter and thereceiver (the

eNodeB) has two physically separated antenna ports. The receiver picks up multipleversions of the

same signal but separated spatially. SIMO receivers use the following techniques tocompute the best

received signal.

Switched Diversity

In Switched Diversity, the input with the best signal is chosen as the best source. The“best” signal

may be based on Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) or Bit Error Rate (BER). Switcheddiversity is the most

simple and inexpensive SIMO technique.

Equal Gain Combining

Equal Gain Combining is a summation of all available received signals.

Maximum Ratio Combining

In Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC), each received signal has compensationapplied to it before being

combined to produce a composite single signal. This technique is particularly effectivewhere the signal

undergoes deep fading. Because fading probably occurs at different frequencies on

each antenna port,

the reliability of the radio link is increased.

A MISO (eNodeB) transmitter has two or more physically separated antenna ports,while the MISO (UE)

receiver has one antenna. Each Tx port transmits the same information bits. Inaddition to data signals,

reference signals are also transmitted via both antenna ports. The normal referencesignal pattern is

sent via the first antenna port and the diversity reference signal pattern via the secondantenna port.

In Space-Time Transmit Diversity (STTD) the same data is transmittedsimultaneously over both Tx

ports. On each port, the channel-coded data is processed in blocks of four bits, thenthe bits are time

reversed and complex conjugated. The physical separation of the antenna portsprovides the space

diversity, and the time difference derived from the bit-reversing process provides thetime diversity. These

features together make the decoding process in the receiver more reliable.

MIMO systems contain multiple antenna ports at both the transmitter and receiver.The MIMO transmitter

transmits signals using time, frequency, and space diversity. The MIMO receiverrecovers the data across

multiple receiving antenna ports.

Space-Time Coding (STC) provides diversity gain to combat the effects of unwantedmultipath

propagation. Similar to STTD, time delayed and coded versions of the same signalare sent from the

same transmitter antenna. The codes that are used are mainly: trellis and block (lesscomplex) codes.

This improves the SNR for cell edge performance.

Spatial Multiplexing (SM)

With Spatial Multiplexing, unique (different) data streams are transmitted overdifferent antenna ports.

Spatial multiplexing can double (2x2 MIMO) or quadruple (4x4 MIMO) capacity andthroughput. This

technique gives higher capacity when RF conditions are favorable and users arecloser to the eNodeB.

The graphic shows spatial multiplexing with a 2x2 MIMO configuration. The receivercan identify the

transmitting antenna port for each received signal

MIMO supports single user MIMO and multi-user MIMO. Single User MIMO improvesthe performance

for a UE (via space time coding), or increases the throughput for a UE (using spatialmultiplexing).

In multi-user MIMO, the data for different users is multiplexed onto a single time-frequency resource, so

the capacity of the cell can increase in terms of users without increasing the systembandwidth.

Switching between SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO is supported on a per UE basis. The

use of codes and reference signals not only allows the receiver to differentiate

between antenna streams and users, but also allows accurate channel estimation

MIMO supports both open loop and closed loop control. Open loop MIMOtransceivers adjust their

transmission based on received (reference signal) measurements. This assumes norapid feedback

technique is available from the UE receiver back to the eNodeB transmitter.Unfortunately, in open loop

operation, the transmitter receives no feedback regarding antenna port operation orsignal strength in

the forward direction.

Closed loop MIMO supports a feedback loop describing eNodeB transmitteroperation and UE

recommendations. Both the eNodeB and UE contain a codebook which describespossible RF

parameters, for example, the phase shift between antenna ports. In closed loopMIMO, the UE

describes eNodeB transmitter operation by returning an index into the sharedcodebook.

Closed loop operation uses the following steps.

1. The eNodeB transmits a DL pilot channel as a reference signal on all antennaports.

2. he UE evaluates various codebook options that specify the RF parameters.3. The UE transmits its recommendations in the form of a codebook index to theeNodeB.

4. The eNodeB adjusts its DL transmission to the UE based on the recommendedparameters.

In case of open loop spatial multiplex two cases have to be distinguished. If thetransmitted rank indication (TRI) = 1 the transmission mode corresponds to transmit

diversity.

If TRI >1 large delay CDD is used. The number of layers is 2, 3 or 4.

In case of closed loop spatial multiplexing feedback from the UE it is used.

The UE feedbacks values of the RI = Rank Indicator and PMI = Precoding MatrixIndicator.

In case of 2 antenna ports the codebook consists of 2 matrices, in case of 4 antennaports there are 16 entries. A restriction may be signaled so that only a subset thereofcan be used.

Release 10 has enhanced the reference signal design with user specific reference symbolsfor signal demodulation and common reference symbols for feedback purposes in downlink

and more orthogonal reference signal structure in uplink. The enhanced design enables betterperformance when the number of antenna branches is high.

Downlink MIMO has already been included in LTE Release 8. The LTE Release 8 codebookand reference symbol design was found to be quite optimum for two and four transmitantennas (2x2, 2x4 and 4x4 antenna configurations), but the channel state informationfeedback from UE to eNB could have been more accurate. This limitation is overcome by thenew reference symbol design of Release 10, which is also more effective when the number oftransmit antennas is higher. Based on the studies and numerous contributions in 3GPP, it canbe safely concluded that the higher the number of antennas, the higher is the gain thatRelease 10 MIMO provides in downlink. With two eNB and two UE antennas, Release 10downlink MIMO provides no improvements over release 8 in SU-MIMO mode but smallperformance improvements have been gained in MU-MIMO mode. In most cases it is best to

operate two TX antenna eNBs in Release 8 SU-MIMO mode. When eNB has four transmitantennas, Release 10 downlink MIMO gain is more than 20% over Release 8 and with eighttransmit antennas a bit higher. Reference symbol overhead effects on system performanceare significant with four and eight transmit antennas. Therefore the selection of MIMOoperating modes and system parameters for both Release 8 and 10 UE is a critical networkoptimization task.

An important point worth remembering is that the network should also supportRelease 8 and 9 UE which does not benefit from the Release 10 enhancements. The

capacity gain from Release 10 downlink MIMO enhancements could even be negativesince new reference symbols create overhead for all UE. However, these overheadscan be decreased by decreasing the Release 8 and 9 specific reference symbols, butthis would prevent non-LTE-A UE to operate in MIMO mode and thus lower their datarates. Additionally, there would be negative effects on common control channelperformance. Consequently, the timing of the introduction of the new features and theconfiguration of the system parameters are essential for an optimum performance ofthe LTE network.

CSI - For downlink channel sounding / Sparse, low overhead (configurable)

CSI = PMI(precoding matrix indicator) + RI(rank indicator) + CQI (channel quality

indicator)

DM - UE-specific DM-RS, which is precoded, makes it possible to apply non-codebook-based precoding (precoding based on CSI feedback and/or UL sounding)-UE-specific DM-RS will enable application of enhanced multi-user beamformingsuchas zero forcing (ZF) for, e.g., 4-by-2 MIMO - DM RS pattern for higher numbers oflayers is extended for 2-layer format for transmission mode 8 in Rel-9 //CDM betweenRS of two layers// E.g. for 4 antenna ports:

Uplink MIMO provides significantly higher peak rates and improved spectrum efficiency inuplink direction. SU-MIMO provides mainly increased data rates in lightly loaded networks for

high-end multi-transmitter UE, whereas MU-MIMO can offer significant improvement ofspectrum efficiency even with single transmitter UE. This can boost network capacity at lowcosts The LTE-A system can operate in both SU and MU-MIMO modes at the same timeusing dynamic user specific MIMO transmission configuration.
