ME602 Assignment 2
Literature review on LTE advanced and 4G
The 4G cellular networks are the current cellular mobile technology. The upcoming 5G cellular network technology is being developed based on the 4G network. Therefore, it is very crucial to extend your knowledge on 4G networks. In this assignment, you will review the 4G/LTE networks from five perspectives, which are:
1- A brief historical background of LTE, advancement towards 5G and the 5G requirements
2- LTE core network
a. Building blocks, interfaces and their functionality (mention but do not provide detail
on the protocol stacks).
b. Similarities and differences between 4G and 2G/3G core networks
To get broader perspective, look at the LTE network diagrams shown in Figures 1. MME (Mobility Management Entity)
SGW (Serving Gateway)
PGW (PDN Gateway)
Figure 1. LTE core network (www.iphase.com)
3- LTE eNodeB functionality and its interconnections
4- The physical layer of the air interface including:
a. An introduction to OFDM/SC-FDMA.

b. Framing and resource blocks
c. Carrier aggregation
d. The system parameters including the allocated bands, modulations etc.
5- Logical channels and their mapping to physical channels
The report must have the following sections
