S1-U Gateway Gateway
• 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.
• 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).

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

– Subframe length is 1 ms
• 1ms subframe consists of two 0.5ms slots (can hop on slot boundaries)
– 7 SC-FDMA symbols per 0.5 ms slot
• 6 SC-FDMA symbols used to carry data
• center SC-FDMA symbol used for the data demodulation reference signal
(DM-RS)
– Downlink MIMO
• Supports Spatial Multiplexing, MU-MIMO, and Transmit Diversity
– Uplink MIMO
• Initial release of LTE will only support MU-MIMO
with a single PA at the UE desire to avoid
multiple PAs at UE

PCRF (TS 23.203): Charging functions in PCRF
Policy Rule − Charging correlation: binds UP (per SDF)
− A rule applied as a filter (TFT) to map traffic to IMS signaling layer (useful for
SDFs to to an EPS bearers and volume metering, for example)
− Providing charging instructions Charging in P-GW
Extremely flexible model − Per SDF statistics collection based on
charging rules provided by the PCRF
− Dynamic policy control
− Online charging through diameter credit
Policy push: UE <> application control (Gz)

to be used and what Policy Rule − Offline charging (Gy)
should be installed by the PCRF Other P-GW functions
on the P-GW − Gate control: allows/disallows SDF

(VoLTE) SRVCC HO DRVCC allows network
• 3G<>LTE PS HO required if IMS independent HO to 2G/3G outside
over 3G is also supported LTE coverage
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.
