DL Reference Signal - cont.
• 2D RS sequence is generated as the symbol-by-symbol

product of a 2D orthogonal sequence (OS) and a 2D pseudo
-random sequence (PRS).
– 3 different 2D OS and ~170 different PRS.
– Each cell (sector) ID corresponds to a unique combination of on
e OS and one PRS ⇒ ~510 unique cell IDs.
• CDM of RS for cells (sectors)of the same eNodeB (BS)

– Use complex orthogonal spreading codes.
• FDM of RS for each antenna in case of MIMO

DL MIMO
• Support up to 4x4 configuration.
• Support for both spatial multiplexing (SM) and Tx diversity (TxD).

– SM
• Unitary precoding based scheme with codebook based feedback
from user.
• Multiple codewords
– TxD: SFBC/STBC, switched TxD, CDD (Cyclic Delay Diversity)
considered.
• MU-MIMO supported.

Basic Idea of Unitary Precoding
• Parallel decomposition of a MIMO channel

Single Carrier FDMA
• What is Single Carrier FDMA (SC-FDMA)?
– Utilizes single carrier modulation and frequency domain
equalization.
– Has similar performance and essentially the same overall structur
e as those of OFDMA system. Also, referred to as DFT-spread
OFDMA.
– Has low PAPR because of its inherent single carrier transmitter
structure.
– An attractive alternative to OFDMA, especially in the uplink
communications where lower PAPR greatly benefits the mobile
terminal in terms of transmit power efficiency.

UL Reference Signal
• Two types of UL RS
– Demodulation (DM) RS ⇒ Narrowband.
– Sounding RS: Used for UL resource scheduling ⇒ Broadband.
• RS based on Zadoff-Chu CAZAC (Constant Amplitude Zero

Auto-Correlation) polyphase sequence
– CAZAC sequence: Constant amplitude, zero circular auto-
correlation, flat frequency response, and low circular cross-
correlation between two different sequences.

UL RS Multiplexing - cont.
• DM RS
– For SIMO: FDM between different users.
– For SU-MIMO: CDM between RS from each antenna
– For MU-MIMO: CDM between RS from each antenna
• Sounding RS
– CDM when there is only one sounding bandwidth.
– CDM/FDM when there are multiple sounding bandwidths.


Cell Search
• Cell search: Mobile terminal or user equipment (UE) acquires
time and frequency synchronization with a cell and detects
the cell ID of that cell.
– Based on BCH (Broadcast Channel) signal and hierarchical SCH
(Synchronization Channel) signals.
• P-SCH (Primary-SCH) and S-SCH (Secondary-SCH) are transmitt

ed twice per radio frame
(10 ms) for FDD.
• Cell search procedure
1. 5 ms timing identified using P-SCH.
2. Radio timing and group ID found from S-SCH.
3. Full cell ID found from DL RS.
4. Decode BCH.

Cell Search - cont.
Example: 10-MHz UE in 20-MHz cell site, SCH bandwidth = 1.25 MHz and BCH bandwidth = 1.25 MHz

entire 20-MHz spectrum
Step 2: BCH
BCH reception reception

using assigned spectrum
Step 3:

assigned by the system and initiates
data transmission

Random Access
• Non-synchronized random access.
• Open loop power controlled with power ramping similar to

WCDMA.
• RACH signal bandwidth: 1.08 MHz (6 RBs)
• Preamble based on CAZAC sequence. UE eNB
