Total: 500MHz
17% of spectrum below 3GHz
Small portion compared with industry size
6
Current wireless systems
• Below 3GHz, many different usage
– Broadcasting (TV, radio )
– Special Mobile Radio
• Ship, Railway, Taxi, Truck, Electricity, Gas
– Public radio
• Military, police, ambulance,・・・
– Satellites
• LEO, Mobile satellites, GPS
– Amateur radio
– Wireless LAN, PAN
– And so on
• Too many systems !

7
From national economy viewpoint
• Government should maximize economical value
of spectrum
• Mobile systems are far more spectrum efficient
than other systems
– Late comer
– Very high traffic demand compared with spectrum
allocated
• Each system has its own requirements, but many
of then can be covered technically by mobile
systems
8
SMR system trends
• SMR systems are based on either TRTRA or iDEN,
– Police, ambulance, disaster warning, train, ship, taxi,
electricity, gas,,,,
• They need to change to broadband systems
• There are many independent SMR systems, each
of them has a small chunk of spectrum
– This makes broadband difficult
– Infrastructure cost is high, because many overlapped
coverage by independent systems

9
SMRs should adopt LTE for broadband
• LTE can provide wireless broadband service with
high spectrum efficiency, much higher than SMRs
• Cellular systems will converge to LTE
– Because of its market size, cost of equipment will
come down , even if it is complicated
• LTE will keep evolving
– Big industry effort is spent on 3GPP to make LTE
system better
– Even if some function is not in LTE now, it will be
included in the future

12
Additional requirements to LTE
• Most SMRs require exclusive spectrum resource
– This can be realized appropriate resource allocation.
TDMA is an example
– It can be introduced to LTE
– High reliability is also required
• Many SMRs require group call function
– LTE already have eMBMS
• Some SMRs require strong security
– LTE security is reasonably strong
– If necessary, it can be enhance by higher protocol
13
Running LTE SMR (1)
• Currently, SMR license is divided into small pieces
– Each company has 100KHz or 200KHz band
• A new operating company, handling many SMR
license should be established and that operator
should deploy broadband LTE
– FirstNet is a good example
– The operator should guarantee traffic to previous
license holders
• Several business models are possible
14
Running LTE SMR (2)
• There will be surplus frequency resource for
new services since LTE spectrum efficiency is
higher than current SMR
• Who will use the surplus resource on what,
should be determined based on LTE network
investment
• Business model should be deeply discussed

15
700MHz band allocation in US

Band 17: AT&T:LTE


Band 13: Verizon:LTE
Band 14: Public Safety Broadband
Military, police, ambulance,, combined broadband
Operator will be the FirstNet, part of government

16
Basic FirstNet concept

• A new band is allocated for broadband public safety in


US
– 99% area coverage of US
• FirstNet will provide service
– FirstNet is a new US organization to run braodband public
safety
• Technology is LTE
• FirstNet will share the network with mobile operators
– To reduce the investment on base stations
• US government made some functional request to 3GPP

17
Restoration form a disaster

・On emergency, communication tool is very important


・Special consideration should be paid on safety wireless

18
Introduction of Very Low Rate

Expand the coverage of non-damaged base station


Activity has started in 3GPP under M2M WI

19
TV broadcast should be LTE based
• Currently, digital TV systems use their own
transmission method
– US, JAPAN, EU, China has their own standards
• All digital TV should be TD-LTE based
– Two-way communication capability on TV will help a
interesting TV program a lot
– Ratio can be 20 down, 1 up link
– No technical difficulty exist
– Global standard
– Internet TV, Mobile TV will be much simpler

20
TV broadcast should be LTE based
• TV White Space will be effectively used by two
way communications
• Spectrum license holder can be broadcaster or
other people
• 3GPP WI: L-band for Supplemental Downlink
in E-UTRA and UTRA is a starting point of this,
same as MediaFLO.

21
PMSE should be LTE based
• PMSE (Program Making Special Event) is a
communication system to deliver TV signal to
center site
• If it is LTE based, it can use cellular LTE system,
when spectrum resource is available.
• Currently, TV white space usage is under
consideration.
• If both broadcasting and PMSE are LTE based,
white space can be used very effectively
22
Wireless LAN can be LTE based
• Wireless LAN physical layer can be LTE layer 1
– Wireless LAN chip is already produced enough
– Cost down effect LTE WLAN is not so large
– Interwork between LTE-WLAN will be easier
• WLAN MAC should be CSMA-CA based
– CSMA-CA is essential for unlicensed band
– 3GPP may better consider introduction of CSMA-
CA to LTE

23
What should not be LTE based
• PAN (Personal Area Network) should not be
changed to LTE
– For a short distance communications, spectrum
efficiency is not an issue
– In many cases, cost and power efficiency is more
important than spectrum efficiency for PAN
– LTE is not designed for such a purpose

24
Summary on LTE convergence
• Most of the wide area wireless systems are better
evolved to LTE
• This does not mean mobile operator should
control most of the spectrum
– There should be considerations on non-economic
value
• If most of the systems deploy LTE, there will be a
vast economical benefit as a whole
• US FirstNet is the starting point of this activity
– US may introduce LTE TV broadcasting as well
25
Conclusions
• High speed transmission in higher frequency is
important, but we should look at lower frequency
optimization as well
• LTE will be applied to almost all wide area
wireless systems
– US will lead this through FirstNet
– Broadcasting will (may?) be LTE based as well
• Next change to mobile radio technology is to
increase flexibility so that it can be applied to
many other wireless systems

WHY- Plentiful Resources but low Efficiency

WHAT- LTE on unlicensed spectrum

How – Key Tech. and Industry Development

HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. 华为保密信息,未经授权禁止扩散 Page 8


U-LTE: Basic Principles
What to be inherited from the LTE merits
 Basic architecture: centralized scheduler & coordination between nodes
 Basic system BW, multiple access techniques (OFDMA on DL, SC-FDMA on UL)
 Basic numerology
 Basic mobility, security, QoS, etc.

Fit unlicensed: Self-Protection Fit unlicensed: Fairness

 Guarantee its quality of communication Guarantee the spectrum usage by the other
• coexists with the other unlicensed systems, unlicensed systems as fair as possible
such as WiFi, Bluetooth,
• multiple nodes or devices of coexist
closely without planning.

U-LTE: Three Use cases
Type 1: Pico with co-located Licensed & unlicensed
CA

Type 2: Macro with co-located or inter-site (with RRH) Type 3: Macro with co-located Licensed & unlicensed
Licensed & unlicensed CA CA

unlicensed spectrum has smaller range than licensed spectrum unlicensed spectrum has similar range with good Beamforming

Note: The node transmission power is based on regulation requirements of Co-existence and Radiation safety

Key point-1: Unlicensed Secondary carriers Design
 Option 1: DL only unlicensed carrier (FDD Pcell or TDD Pcell )

 Option 2: DL+UL unlicensed carrier (FDD Pcell or TDD Pcell)

 If the QoS can be guaranteed, it is inclined to occupy unlicensed spectrum first.

Key Point-2.1: Inter operator interference
 Each operator has the equal right to access the unlicensed spectrum but without
coordinated geographical isolation among different eNodeBs.

 Principal: Sensing or coordinating before using


 It is beneficial to coordinate the occupying and releasing spectrum among different
operators
 Solution: Over-the air seems the only feasible way for coordination
 X2 or wired line are not available between different operators
 Static agreement can not be flexible

Key Point-2.2: Principal on Coexistence with WiFi
 Capacity Analysis :
 When the load become higher, the throughput of standalone WiFi decreases while the throughput of standalone
LTE still increases due to the different scheduling mechanisms.

 Besides the difference of scheduling mechanisms, due to HARQ, link adaptation based on receivers’ SINR, and
periodic transmission of common channels in LTE, it is deduced that if LTE directly coexists with WiFi on the
same unlicensed carrier, LTE will finally kick WiFi off when load is high.
