The specification of the Home Evolved NodeB (Home-eNB), which is a small base station designed for use in residential or small business environment, is currently ongoing in 3GPP LTE (Long Term Evolution) systems. One of the key requirements for its feasibility in the LTE system is the mobility management in the deployment of the numerous Home-eNBs and other 3GPP network. In this paper, we overview the characteristic of Home-eNB and also describe the mobility management issues and the related approaches in 3GPP LTE based Home-eNB systems.

With the continued evolution of third-generation cellular systems and the introduction of 3GP P LTE, there is considerable progress for the new mobile wireless markets. Recently, 3GPP LTE standards are accelerated by mobile operators supporting LTE deployment and special working groups such as LSTI are working for LTE IOT and trials. In this paper, we introduce the current status of LTE activities in the mobile communications industry.

One of the recent noticeable evolutions in mobile communication systems is that wideband-codec is deployed rapidly in VoLTE (Voice over Long Term Evolution) service or HD voice. This paper is concerned with next generation HD voice or VoLTE service that is coined to describe high quality communication with super-wideband voice codec. 3GPP EVS (Enhanced Voice Service) Codec is being standardized to develop the super-wideband voice codec. This paper deals with the codec design constraints, performance requirements, the status of standardization, and finally perspective on VoLTE service in future.

Due to the increasing demand of network convergence, in future, hybrid/integrated satellite and terrestrial systems will play an important role. In that case, compatibilities between the satellite and terrestrial systems are very important for efficiency of the systems. 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) is one of the 4G system. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce the design of interleaver for mobile satellite system based 3GPP LTE specification. The 4G system including the LTE specification adopted adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) schemes for efficient usage of resources, and the updating interval of resource allocation is an order of msec. However, because of the long round trip delay of satellite systems, we cannot employ the same AMC scheme specified for the terrestrial system, and thus it cannot effectively counteract to short term fadings. Therefore, in order to overcome these problems, we propose an interleaver scheme combined with AMC. We present the interleaver design results considering mobile satellite system based on the LTE and analyze the simulation results.

Despite the exponential throughput improvement in mobile communications systems, their ability to satisfy requirements of state-of-the-art and future applications of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is still under investigation. Challenges are mainly due to the inadequacy of third generation partnership project (3GPP) networks to support large amounts of devices simultaneously, while the number of AMI end-devices and the frequency of their data transmission increase with new AMI-based applications. In this introductory survey, innovative and future AMI applications and their communication requirements are first reviewed. Then, we identify challenges of 3GPP long term evolution (LTE) in enabling future AMI applications. More importantly, the latest improvements to LTE-A standard release 12 and 13 are reviewed and analyzed with regards to their potential to improve the quality of LTE-enabled AMI. It is found that 3GPP enhancements on machine type communications (MTC) standards will significantly enhance AMI communications. Beyond MTC specifications, non-MTC-specific enhancements such as carrier aggregation and multi-connectivity for user equipment will also contribute greatly to improving reliability and availability of AMI devices. The paper's focus is towards improved backhaul support for innovative and future AMI applications, beyond traditional automatic meter reading.

보다 높은 기술적 요구사항을 지니는 차세대 통신 시스템의 무선 접속 기술은 직교 다중파 전송 방식(OFDM)과 다중안테나 기술로 특징 지워진다. 현재 전세계적으로 고속 광대역 접속을 위한 이런 핵심 기술들은 IEEE 802.16,20, 3GPP, 3GPP2와 같은 국제 표준단체에서 표준 기술로 보편적으로 고려되고 있다. 다양한 표준 단체에서 경쟁적으로 차세대 이동 통신 표준 시스템을 개발함에도 불구하고, 3GPP LTE(Long Term Evolution) 시스템은 전세계적인 통신 기반환경과 일관된 시스템 진화과정을 고려 할때 가장 주목 받는 시스템으로 부각되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 차세대 통신 시스템의 실현 기술에 대한 기술적 정당성과 향후 차세대 통신 시스템의 한축을 이루게 될 3GPP LTE의 표준 동향 및 전망에 대해 알아본다.

3GPP long-term evolution(LTE) band 2.3~2.4 GHz is adjacent to 2.4~2.5 GHz band for WLAN, and therefore compatibility study of the two systems is desirable. We propose a dynamic system simulation methodology to investigate the effect of WLAN interference on LTE systems. As capturing space/time/frequency changes in system parameters, the dynamic system simulation can exactly predict real system performance. Using the proposed methodology, we obtain LTE downlink throughput loss for the frequency separation between the two systems. Throughput loss under 1 % is obtained from guard band over 11 MHz(single channel allocation) or 10 MHz(three channel allocation).

3GPP는 HSPA와 같은 라디오 액세스 기술의 개선을 바탕으로 다가오는 수 년 동안 높은 경쟁력을 가질 것으로 예측된다. 그러나 3GPP에서는 급속히 발전되는 정보통신서비스를 효율적으로 제공하기 위해, 3GPP R6 기술과 비교하여 사용자와 사업자의 비용을 줄이면서도 고품질의 다양한 서비스를 제공하는 새로운 이동통신기술의 필요성을 인식하고, 낮은 전송 지연(low latency), 높은 전송률(high data rate), 시스템 용량과 커버리지를 개선하는 3G long term evolution 표준기술 작성을 시작하였다. 이에 따라 지난 2004년 말부터 3GPP에 참여한 사업자, 벤더, 연구소 등은 2007년 6월 표준규격작성완료를 목표로 LTE와 SAE에 대한 연구를 진행해 오고 있다. 이들 연구는 상호 운용성을 제공하기 위한 기술적 솔루션을 최소로 하면서 불필요하게 중복되는 필수 특성들을 줄이고 다양한 액세스 네트워크 사이에서 모빌리티를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 본 문서에서는 2006년 3월까지 진행된 3GPP의 표준화 및 기술 동향에 대해살펴본다.
