pdcp status report & discard timer

in LteWorld Forum

Hi All,

I am not getting clear idea , when we should use pdcp status report ? Whether it is used only during the re-establishment( i.e handover ) or in all the general cases .
And same with the discard timer. Whether timer should be started in all the cases in RLC AM mode . Please reply as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Lohith

LTE resource grid at www.paul.wad.homepage.dk/LTE/lte_resource_grid.html‎ has bug ?

in LteWorld Forum

I believe the tool in
http://paul.wad.homepage.dk/LTE/lte_resource_grid.html

has a bug. When 1.4 MHz and 4 PDCCH OFDMi symbol are generated for 1 antenna port configuration, the RS signals for the 2nd port (which must be assumed if actual config has only 1 port), are not being reserved. Instead, they are marked as being assigned for PDCCH, which I think is wrong ?

Resource Block pair

in LteWorld Forum

Hi !

I read in the book of E.Dahlman "4G LTEi/LTE-A for Mobile Broadband" that the minimum allocation unit for the scheduler is a Resource Block Pair (two RBs contugous in time domain).

However, I noticed that in the tables of determination of Transport Block Size (TBS ) in 3GPPi specs, the granularity of RBs allocated is only one RB.

LTE OFDMA Physical layer basic question

I have only recently started understanding the PHY layer of ODFMA based LTEi. Visualizing what exactly happens at Layer 1 is a little more challenging than at protocol stack level.

Dear All,

How do we ensure Backhauling for Small Cell sites? Normally it should be done wirelessly, but what about interference?

Thank you in advance

X2 Interface in LTE

in LteWorld Forum

Hi Friends,

The X2i interface enables eNodeBs de to communicate directly between each other whitch is good for Interference management (especially in HetNets) and seamless HandOver. I read that it is a logical interface not hard one. So I want to understand how it is done softly and whitch protocol is used? Do someone have an idea about this?

Thanks in advance.
