Downlink MIMO in 3GPP LTE/LTE-Advanced and IEEE 802.16m

  • Published : 2009.11.30

Abstract

3GPP LTE/LTE-A and IEEE 802.16m have recently been submitted to ITU as IMT-Advanced candidates. MIMO is one of the core technologies that enable both standards to achieve the tough requirements specified by ITU. This paper provides an introduction to the core downlink MIMO features of both standards.
