==Rationale==
* LTE is the most suited technology as it provides higher data rates required for the future and is an advancement over widely used GSM/EDGE/HSPA
* A number of corporate giants are looking towards LTE as the technology enabling future communication
* The following factors are expected to be obtained with the realization of LTE
** Reduced cost per bit
** Increased service provisioning - more services at lower cost with better user experience
** Flexibility of use of existing and new frequency bands
** Simplified architecture, Open interfaces
** Allow for reasonable terminal power consumption
==Background description==
==Introduction==A femtocell LTE (Long Term Evolution), is a small cellular base station designed for use the latest standard in residential or small business environments. It connects to the service provider’s mobile network via broadband (such as DSL or cable) and typically supports 2 to 5 mobile phones in a residential setting. A femtocell allows service providers to extend service coverage inside technology that came into existence because of your home - especially where access would otherwise be limited or unavailable - without the need for expensive cellular towersgrowing needs of faster data rates. It also decreases the backhaul costs since it routes your mobile phone traffic through the IP networkis a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), which realized this technology. [http:LTE is an advancement to previously realized technologies such as GSM/EDGE and UMTS/wwwHSxPA etc.tatarasystems.com/contentmgr/showdetails.php/id/444 Source] A femtocell Although LTE is sometimes referred to often marketed as a “home base station”4G, “access point base station”, “3G access point”, “small cellular base station” and “personal 2Gfirst-3G base station”release LTE is actually a 3.9G technology since it does not fully comply with the IMT Advanced 4G requirements.
Update - LTE-Advanced has been granted 4G compliance given the significant improvement they provide over 3G technologies [http://www.itu.int/net/pressoffice/press_releases/2010/48.aspx][[Image:Housefemtocelllte-evolve.jpg|thumbcentre|1000px500px|centrethumb|[http://www.femtoforum4gamericas.org/femto/aboutfemtocellsindex.php Femtocellcfm?fuseaction=page&sectionid=249 '''LTE Evolution''' ]]]Voice traffic will be supported mainly as Voice over IP (VoIP) enabling better integration with other multimedia services.LTE is being designed to be a high data rate and low latency system. LTE is also aimed at minimizing cost and power consumption while ensuring backward-compatibility and a cost effective migration from UMTS systems.

Femtocells are low-power wireless access points that operate in licensed spectrum to connect standard mobile devices to a mobile operator’s network using residential DSL or cable broadband connections.==Technical details=Read More?===Click on [[Femtocell Background]] to read more about Femtocell.
==Femtocell =Performance requirements===LTE is expected to support different types of services including web browsing, FTP, video streaming, VoIP, online gaming, real time video, push- Search Strategyto-talk and push-to-view. Therefore, it is being designed to be a high data rate and low latency system as indicated by the key performance criteria shown below. [[Image:lte-p.jpg|800px|thumb|centre|[http://www.3gpp.org/LTE '''Fig.1 LTE Release 8 Major Parameters <br> Fig.2 LTE-Release 8 User Equipment Categories ''']]] ==LTE architecture==[[Image:arch.jpg|700px|thumb|centre|[http://www.ericsson.com/res/docs/whitepapers/lte_overview.pdf LTE architecture]]] ===Control PatentsProtocol stack===Control patents [[Image:prot.jpg|600px|thumb|centre|[http://www.ericsson.com/res/thecompany/docs/journal_conference_papers/wireless_access/IEEE-Com-Mag-April-2009-LTE-SAE-Rel-8-link-layer-design.pdf Protocol stack of LTE]]] ===Data flow ===The data flow through protocol stack can be shown as [[Image:dataf.jpg|600px|thumb|centre|[http://www.ericsson.com/res/thecompany/docs/journal_conference_papers/wireless_access/IEEE-Com-Mag-April-2009-LTE-SAE-Rel-8-link-layer-design.pdf Dataflow]]] ===LTE frame structure=== In order to maintain synchronization and manage different types of information exchange that need to be carried between the base-station or eNodeB and the User Equipment (UE), LTE system has a defined LTE frame and sub frame structure for the E-UTRA or Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access There are mostly two types of LTE frame structure: * '''Type 1:used for the LTE FDD mode systems'''* to prepare concepts* The basic type 1 LTE frame has an overall length of 10 ms. This is then divided into a total of 20 individual slots. LTE sub frames then consist of two slots - in other words there are ten LTE sub frames within a frame. [[Image:type1f.jpg|thumb|centre|600px|[http://www.radio-electronics.com/info/cellulartelecomms/lte-long-term-evolution/lte-frame-subframe-structure.php LTE frame structure]]] * to search classes'''Type 2:used for the LTE TDD systems'''** The frame structure for the type 2 frames used on LTE TDD is somewhat different. The 10 ms frame comprises two half frames, and each 5 ms long. The LTE half-frames are further split into five sub frames, each 1ms long. [[Image:type2f.jpg|thumb|centre|600px|[http://www.radio-electronics.com/info/cellulartelecomms/lte-long-term-evolution/lte-frame-subframe-structure.php LTE frame structure]]] * The subframes may be divided into standard sub frames of special sub frames. The special sub frames consist of three fields** DwPTS - Downlink Pilot Time Slot** GP - Guard Period** UpPTS - Uplink Pilot Time Slot. ==LTE enabling technologies== * '''OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access)'''** It is used in the downlink communication of LTE as it can support high data rates* '''SC-FDMA (Single Carrier FDMA)'''** It is used in the uplink communication of LTE as it helps in reducing terminal power consumption* '''MIMO (Multi-Input Multi-Output)'''** Helps in obtaining increased data rates with usage of many antennas.* '''System Architecture Evolution(SAE)'''** New core network architecture to verify support the search strategyhigh-throughput / low latency LTE access system** Simplified network architecture** All IP network** All services are via PS domain only, No CS domain** Support mobility between multiple heterogeneous access system* '''Fractional frequency reuse'''** Helps in reusing the frequency so that spectral efficiency can be improved ==Taxonomy==<mm>[[LTE-taxonomy.mm]]</mm> ==Major players in the ETSI list for LTE==[[Image:etsifa.jpg|centre|1000px|]] ==Ranking of ETSI patents==

In one method, at least one data symbol stream is received for transmission from a plurality of antennas. Each data symbol stream is scaled with a respective weight corresponding to the amount of transmit power allocated to that stream. The scaled data symbol stream(s) are multiplied with a transmit basis matrix to provide a plurality of transmit symbol streams for the plurality of antennas. The transmit basis matrix (e.g., a Walsh-Hadamard matrix or a DFT matrix) is defined such that each data symbol stream is transmitted from all antennas and each transmit symbol stream is transmitted at (or near) the full power for the associated antenna. |-valign = "top"

For each transmitting antenna in an OFDM transmitter, pilot symbols are encoded so as to be unique to the transmitting antenna. The encoded pilot symbols are then inserted into an OFDM frame to form a diamond lattice, the diamond lattices for the different transmitting antennae using the same frequencies but being offset from each other by a single symbol in the time domain.

|Call admission priority control determination device and mobile wireless communication system
|When more than one terminal is present in the same cell and these terminals communicate with one base station, the wireless resources of that base station are shared among the plural terminals. As a result, the communication rate becomes lower than when communication is performed by only one terminal. Thus, there is a problem that the use of the femtocell base station by other users deteriorates the quality of communication by specified terminal users such as the femtocell base station administrator.
|It can be solved by a call admission priority control determination device including a registration table containing base station ID numbers of base stations and an ID number of a high-priority first terminal, and a call admission determination unit that determines call admission with reference to the registration table, wherein, when a connection request or a switching-over request for a third terminal has been received from a base station control device, the call admission determination unit, on the basis of this request, references the registration table and determines whether or not call admission for the third terminal is to be permitted.

|Femtocell basestation scrambling code selection
|The mobile network operator may allocate only a small number of scrambling codes for use by all of the deployed femtocell basestations, and in fact it is possible that there may be only one scrambling code allocated for use by all of the femtocell basestations in an operator<nowiki>’</nowiki>s network, and so there is a possibility that two femtocell basestations that are located very close together may need to use the same scrambling code.
|A method for reducing the possibility of interference between femtocell basestations that are located very close together may need to use the same scrambling code which includes method of selecting a scrambling code, for use in a basestation of a cellular communications network, the method comprising: receiving from a management system a list comprising at least one allowed scrambling code for femtocell basestations; and detecting, in information broadcast by at least one macrocell basestation, at least one allowed scrambling code available in an area containing the basestation.

|Access control method for cellular networks comprising femto-cells
|It is not necessary that the femto system may know at each time the cell locations of all user equipments camping in its area because it will be unable to track those user terminals entering the femto-cell while in the Idle Mode, and also taking into account the fact that up to 6 minutes might be necessary for the user terminal to trigger its periodic location update. Because of this it would not be possible to distribute paging messages from the Core Network to individual femto-cells without running the risk that paging may not be received by the user equipment addressed thereby.
|A method is provided to control access of user terminals to a femto system which includes Non Access Stratum (NAS) Mobility Management (MM) messages as well as Access Stratum (AS) Radio Resource Control (RRC) messages.

|Using global cell identifier for handover in a combined femto-cell/macro-cell environment
|When large number of femto cells compared to the number of macro cells is present, it is not possible to ensure that all the femto cells within the coverage area of a macro cell have individual and different frequencies and scrambling codes. So in a combined femto cell-macro cell environment, the macro cell RNC will be unable to determine, from the measurement report received from the UE, which cell (either a femto cell or macro cell) was measured.
|A method is provided which includes a network element for a cellular communication system, network element comprises a receiver for receiving a message that comprises a measurement report from a wireless communication unit. The network element further comprises signal processing logic, operably coupled to the receiver, for processing the received measurement report and extracting a global cell identifier therefrom, so the inventive concept provides an improvement to the use of measurement reports, which may be used to facilitate handover between cells in a cellular communication system.
