Book description
A practical guide to LTE design, test and measurement, this new
edition has been updated to include the latest developments
This book presents the latest details on LTE from a practical and
technical perspective. Written by Agilent's measurement experts, it
offers a valuable insight into LTE technology and its design and test
challenges. Chapters cover the upper layer signaling and system
architecture evolution (SAE). Basic concepts such as MIMO and SC-FDMA,
the new uplink modulation scheme, are introduced and explained, and
the authors look into the challenges of verifying the designs of the
receivers, transmitters and protocols of LTE systems. The latest
information on RF and signaling conformance testing is delivered by
authors participating in the LTE 3GPP standards committees.
This second edition has been considerably revised to reflect the most
recent developments of the technologies and standards. Particularly
important updates include an increased focus on LTE-Advanced as well
as the latest testing specifications.
