Abstract: In this talk we first provide a detailed tutorial overview of the
PHY layer procedures, techniques and features in
LTE and their evolution towards
LTE-Advanced (Rel. 8-10). We will start with the revision of the fundamental basics of LTE, including the LTE frame structure for
TDD and
FDD, the reference and synchronization signal and the physical channels in uplink and downlink, as well as the synchronization,
Random Access and
HARQ procedures. We will further address the most important LTE PHY layer system blocks and requirements both from the base station (eNB) and user equipment (UE) perspective.
Finally, we provide a detailed overview on the available channel state feedback mechanism and reporting schemes devised in LTE and
LTE-A that enable efficient channel aware scheduling and multi-antenna operation.
Furthermore, based on the above, we will discuss here in great details the implications of the standardization work onto the PHY layer design. In this talk will specifically focus on multi-antenna techniques that are supported in LTE and illustrate the implementational aspect associated with these schemes. We will outline how multi-antenna techniques for interference mitigation have evolved in the LTE standard from merely interference randomization types of open-loop approaches in LTE towards powerful interference coordination and interfere suppression types of closed-loop schemes in LTE-Advanced.

Marius Pesavento (M'00) received the Dipl.-Ing. and
M.Eng. degree from
Ruhr-Universität Bochum,
Germany, and
McMaster University,
Hamilton, ON,
Canada, in
1999 and
2000, respectively, and in
2005 the Dr.-Ing. degree in
Electrical Engineering from Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany. Between 2005 and
2007, he was a
Research Engineer at
FAG Industrial Services GmbH,
Aachen, Germany. From 2007 to 2009 he was the
Director of the
Signal Processing Section at mimoOn GmbH,
Duisburg, Germany. In
2010, he became a
Professor for Robust Signal Processing in the
Communications Systems Group at the
Department of Electrical Engineering and
Information Technologies,
Darmstadt University of Technology,
Darmstadt, Germany. His research interests are in the area of robust signal processing and adaptive beamforming, high-resolution sensor array processing, transceiver design for cognitive radio systems, cooperative communications in relay networks,
MIMO and multi antenna communications, space-time coding, multiuser and multicarrier wireless communication systems (3G-4G), convex optimization for signal processing and communications, statistical signal processing, spectral analysis, parameter estimation and detection theory. Dr. Pesavento was a recipient of the
2003 ITG/
VDE Best Paper Award, the 2005
Young Author Best Paper Award of the
IEEE, and the 2010 Best Paper Award of the CROWNCOM conference. He is a member of the
Editorial board of the EURASIP Signal Processing
Journal and since
2012 he is a member of the
Sensor Array and Multichannel (
SAM) Technical Committee of the IEEE
SPS.
