EPC & LTE: Key Features
EPC is the resulting core network architecture from the 3GPP initiative to develop a new
flat(ter) network architecture tailored to better deliver broadband and real-time packet-
switched services
–Reduced latency relative to current UMTS system.
• Reduced number of nodes for lower transport delay
–Network simplification relative to UMTS
• No circuit-switched domain, no dedicated channels
–No single point of failure + load sharing and redistribution capabilities
LTE is the resulting Air-interface from the 3GPP initiative to develop a new OFDMA based
RAN/air-interface to provide:
–Bandwidth scalability of 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15 & 20 MHz high-efficiency OFDMA carriers
–Latency reduction to less than 10 ms through smaller frame durations
–TDD and FDD duplexing mode support
–Significant peak & cell-edge data throughput improvements
–Advanced antenna support (e.g. MIMO, SDMA)
–Self Optimizing Networks (SON)
–Wide range of QoS and Mobility support
EPC/LTE is standardized in Rel-8
Backwards compatibility with UMTS/HSDPA was NOT a priority for EPC/LTE
Goal of EPC/LTE is to Define New Flat(ter) Network Architecture (IP) and OFDMA
RAN/Air-Interface to Improve Broadband and Real Time Packet Switched Services

• S1-MME: Reference point for the control plane protocol between E-UTRAN and MME.
• S1-U: Reference point between E-UTRAN and Serving GW for the per bearer user plane
tunnelling and inter eNodeB path switching during handover.
• S2a: It provides the user plane with related control and mobility support between trusted non-
3GPP IP access and the Gateway.
• S3: It enables user and bearer information exchange for inter-3GPP access network mobility in
idle and/or active state. It is based on Gn reference point as defined between SGSNs.
• S4: It provides related control and mobility support between GPRS Core and the 3GPP Anchor
function of Serving GW and is based on Gn reference point as defined between SGSN and
GGSN. In addition, if Direct Tunnel is not established, it provides the user plane tunnelling.
• S5: It provides user plane tunneling and tunnel management between Serving GW and PDN
GW. It is used for Serving GW relocation due to UE mobility and in case the Serving GW needs
to connect to a non-collocated PDN GW for the required PDN connectivity.
• S6a: This interface is defined between MME and HSS for authentication and authorization.

LTE/EPS Standard Reference Points (2 of 2)

• S7: It provides transfer of (QoS) policy and charging rules from PCRF to Policy and Charging
Enforcement Point (PCEF) ) in the PDN GW.
• S7c: It provides transfer of (QoS) policy information from PCRF to the Serving Gateway
• S8: It is the roaming interface in case of roaming with home routed traffic. It provides the user
plane with related control between Gateways in the VPLMN and HPLMN.
• S10: This interface is reference point between MMEs for MME relocation and MME to MME
information transfer.
• S11: This interface is reference point between MME and Serving GW.
• S12: Reference point between UTRAN and Service GW for user plan tunneling when Direct
Tunnel is established. Usage of S12 is an operator configuration option.
• SGi: Reference point between the PDN-GW and the packet data network. The packet data
network can be a private or public data (IP) network or an intra-operator packet data network,
e.g. for provision of IMS services.
• S101: This interface is the signaling interface between the EPC MME and the evolved HRPD
Access Network (eAN/PCF).

LTE Uplink: DFT-SOFDMA-1

 DFT spreading of modulation symbols reduces PAPR, but also leads to the possibility of
inter-symbol interference (ISI)
 In OFDM, each modulation symbols “sees” a single 15 kHz subcarrier (flat channel)
 In DFT-SOFDM, each modulation symbol “sees” a wider bandwidth (i.e. m x 180
KHz)  if channel is frequency selective within allocated bandwidth the we get ISI
– Equalization is required in the SC-FDMA receiver
– Simple one-tap frequency domain equalization facilitated by use of CP

− default traffic flow templates assigning (see 36.300 – QoS model)
− Per UE and per APN Aggregate Maximum Bit-Rate (AMBR)
− (possibly) stores subscriber profiles which are then used by the PCRF (policy manager)

3GPP)
− The same HSS used in IMS in which case the interface is S6a and is build on diameter

EPS Bearer (36.300, section 13.1):


 An EPS Bearer is an end-to-end tunnel defined to a specific QoS
− A default bearer is defined at UE initial attach; radio resources are removed if UE goes idle
− A dedicated bearer is created via signaling for specific services
 The QoS model is built on the EPS bearer which has 4 parameters associated to it:
− QoS Class Identifier (QCI): is an integer which provides an index into a table providing forwarding
treatment for that bearer
− Allocation and Retention Priority (ARP): which provides pre-emption priority in case of contention
− Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR): separately for both DL & UL. Note an EPS-bearer can be non-GBR
− Aggregate Maximum Bit Rate (AMBR): specifies DL & UL bit rates for an aggregate EPS bearer
 Service data flows (SDF) are specific packet flows identified by 5-tuple to a service requiring special treatment
 SDFs are mapped into EPS bearers at the UE (for UL) and at the PGW (for DL) via Traffic Flow Templates (TFT)
which are a set of filter rules

VOICE MIGRATION OPTIONS FOR WCDMA AND
CDMA OPERATORS
VCC = Voice Call Continuity VoLTE = Voice (IMS-based VoIP) over LTE
CSFB = Circuit Switched FallBack SVLTE = Simultaneous (1x Circuit) Voice and LTE
SRVCC = Single Radio VCC DRVCC = Dual Radio VCC

Option Description Comment


Attractive as a means of re-
UE is registered in LTE and is using all the CS infrastructure.
CS Fall-back
(CSFB)
paged over LTE but takes call in
CS Precludes simultaneous LTE data
and voice
Simultaneous voice and data LTE No network awareness needed.
SVLTE
Dual Radio Non-standard

Standard 3GPP IMS and LTE features Call control for voice services is
to improve voice capacity replicated in the IMS domain and is
Voice/SMS Usage Options: interworked with CS domain, via
over IMS • Hand-down to CS domain via SRVCC.
(VoLTE) SRVCC HO DRVCC allows network

TERMINOLOGY

• Dual receiver, Dual transmitter devices used by SVLTE, DRVCC


• Dual receiver, Single transmitter devices used by CSFB
• Single receiver, Single transmitter devices used by CSFB, SRVCC

Paging Technique:
“S102” - page is tunneled over S102 to the UE on LTE. UE only monitors LTE and
switches to 1x if it receives a tunneled page.
“1x” means the call is routed to 1x, the UE listens to 1x and gets the page on 1x.
Setup Technique:
“S102” - 1x traffic channel is set up via tunneled signaling while the UE is on LTE.
“1x” - traffic channel is setup via the 1x access channel.
Suspend LTE: the UE explicitly suspends LTE operation during the circuit call and
resumes upon completion.
