Throughput calculation There are two methods in this document to show the throughput calculation, part one uses

carriers and part two uses slots. PART ONE As we know, there are 30 subchannels in downlink and 35 subchannels in uplink respectively, and TDD is 31:15. And, one subchannel in downlink includes 28 subcarriers (24 data subcarriers and 4 pilot subcarriers), counterpart in uplink has 24 subcarriers including 16 data subcarriers and 8 pilot subcarriers. Hence, there are 30(subchannel numbers)*24(data subcarrier numbers/subchannel)*28(symbol numbers in downlink frame exclude Preamble, FCH, DL-MAP and UL-MAP using compressed MAP) data subcarriers can be used to transmit data in one downlink frame, and 35(subchanenl numbers)*16(data subcarrier numbers)*12(symbol numbers in uplink frame exclude 3 symbols occupied by ranging region, ACK region and fast feedback region) data subcarriers can be used to transmit data in one uplink frame. Namely, there are 20160 data subcarriers in downlink and 6720 data subcarriers in uplink can be used to transmit data in one frame. According to constellation, QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM modulation order is 2, 4 and 6 respectively, which represents one subcarrier can carry 2bits, 4bits and 6bits. Considering the code rate like 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6, one data subcarrier with QPSK 1/2 can carry 2bits*1/2= 1bit, QPSK 3/4 can carry 2bits*3/4=1.5bits, 16QAM 1/2 can carry 4bits*1/2=2bits, 16QAM 3/4 can carry 4bits*3/4 = 3bits, 64QAM 2/3 can carry 6bits*2/3 =4bits, 64QAM 3/4 can carry 6bits*3/4 = 4.5bits, 64QAM 5/6 can carry 6*5/6=5bits. So in one frame, QPSK 1/2, QPSK 3/4, 16QAM 1/2, 16QAM 3/4, 64QAM 2/3, 64QAM 3/4, 64QAM 5/6 can transmit 20160 bits, 30240bits, 40320bits, 60480bits, 80640bits, 90720bits, 100800bits in downlink respectively, and QPSK 1/2, QPSK 3/4, 16QAM 1/2, 16QAM 3/4 can transmit 6720bits, 10080bits, 13440bits, 20160bits in uplink respectively. From the calculation above all, the downlink throughputs are: QPSK 1/2: 20160bits/frame*200frames/second = 4032000bits/second = 3.84Mbps QPSK 3/4: 30240bits/frame*200frames/second = 6048000bits/second = 5.76Mbps 16QAM 1/2: 40320bits/frame*200frames/second = 8064000bits/second = 7.69Mbps 16QAM 3/4:60480bits/frame*200frames/second = 12096000bits/second = 11.53Mbps

64QAM 2/3:80640bits/frame*200frames/second = 16128000bits/second= 15.38Mbps 64QAM 3/4:90720bits/frame*200frames/second = 18144000bits/second= 17.30Mbps 64QAM 5/6:100800bis/frame*200frames/second = 20160000bits/second= 19.22Mbps and, the uplink throughputs are: QPSK 1/2:6720bits/frame*200frames/second = 1344000bits/second = 1.28Mbps QPSK 3/4: 10080bits/frame*200frames/second = 2016000bits/second = 1.92Mbps 16QAM 1/2: 13440bits/frame*200frames/second = 2688000bits/second = 2.56Mbps 16QAM 3/4: 20160bits/frame*200frames/second = 4032000bits/second = 3.84Mbps. PART TWO Simplifying the calculation process, lets calculate the throughputs by slots. According to the protocol, one slot in downlink frame includes one subchannel and two symbols while one slot in uplink frame includes one subchannel and three symbols. So, there are 30*28/2 = 420 slots in downlink frame and 35*12/3=140 slots in uplink frame respectively. As calculated above, one slot has 48 data subcarriers both in downlink frame(24 data subcarriers/symbol *2symbols) and uplink frame (16 data subcarriers/symbol * 3 symbols). Assuming MPR(modulation order product code rate) is 1, one slot can carry 48bits. As we know, the modulation order of QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM is 2, 4 and 6 respectively, so the MPR of: QPSK 1/2 = 2 * 1/2 = 1 QPSK 3/4 = 2 * 3/4 = 1.5 16QAM 1/2 = 4 * 1/2 = 2 16QAM 3/4 = 4 * 3/4 = 3 64QAM 2/3 = 6 * 2/3 = 4 64QAM 3/4 = 6 * 3/4 = 4.5 64QAM 5/6 = 6 * 5/6 = 5 So we can draw that the downlink throughputs are: QPSK 1/2: 48bits/slot*420slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 3.84Mbps. QPSK 3/4: 48bits/slot*420slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 5.76 Mbps

16QAM 1/2: 48bits/slot*420slots/frame*200frames/second * MPR = 7.69Mbps 16QAM 3/4: 48bits/slot*420slots/frame*200frames/second * MPR = 11.53Mbps 64QAM 2/3: 48bits/slot*420slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 15.38Mbps 64QAM 3/4: 48bits/slot*420slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 17.30Mbps 64QAM 5/6: 48bits/slot*420slots/frame*200frames/second*MPR = 19.22Mbps. and, the uplink throughputs are: QPSK 1/2:48bits/slot*140slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 1.28Mbps QPSK 3/4:48bits/slot*140slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 1.92Mbps 16QAM 1/2:48bits/slot*140slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 2.56Mbps 16QAM 3/4:48bits/slot*140slots/frame*200frames/second *MPR = 3.84Mbps
