MIMO Principle
Transmission
Over NTx x NRx (ideally) uncorrelated paths Theoretical maximum rate increase factor = Min (NTx , NRx)
In a rich scattering environment; no gain in LOS environment Practical gain in urban areas = 1.2 to 1.5 for 2x2 MIMO Boosting capacity (DL and UL) and peak burst rate (DL),
Sensitive to SINR
Allowing multi-layer transmissions with up to four streams MU-MIMO: allocation of different streams to different users
MU-MIMO SU-MIMO In UL: only MU-MIMO no SU-MIMO Choice for MIMO mode at the Node B side
Restricted by the UE capability (e.g. number of RX antennas) Adapted slowly (e.g. once in a com, or every xiple of 100ms)
Rank adaptation (and/or antenna subset selection) is supported for evaluation The number of codewords transmitted to a UE is controlled through rank adaptation
MIMO channel state information Channel quality indicator (CQI), which may be used by the Node B to decide a MCS level(s).

Hence, they are invisible to the higher layers (except for parameter configurations). The MME, PCRF and xGW are virtually identical for FDD and TDD systems
Differences are in eNB and terminals with respect to FDD and TDD due to the difference in air interface design/physical layer. Therefore, it is beneficial to exploit this similarity to build one system that can support FDD and/or TDD.

H-ARQ
Uplink H-ARQ
Unlike FDD, where the number of HARQ processes is always 8, in TDD the number of HARQ proceses depends on the UL/DL configuration. In TDD, time between grant and corresponding UL transmission, and between the UL transmission and the corresponding Ack/Nack varies with a minimum of 4 subframes. In TDD, when subframes allocated to UL exceed DL, multiple PHICH can be transmitted in same DL subframe corresponding to multiple UL subframes. In TDD, when subframes allocated to UL exceed DL, UL grant sent in DL subframe can correspond to transmission in multiple UL subframes as indicated by UL index in UL grant.
Downlink H-ARQ
Unlike FDD, where the number of HARQ processes is always 8, in TDD the number of HARQ proceses depends on the UL/DL configuration. In TDD, time between the DL transmission and the corresponding Ack/Nack varies with a minimum of 4 subframes. In TDD, when subframes allocated to DL exceed UL, multiple Ack/Nacks are bundled or multiplexed into one UL subframes on PUCCH or PUSCH. New field (DAI - Downlink Index Assignment) is added to the DCI information to indicate the number of DL transmissions to be grouped in one Ack/Nack response/
