Uplink scheduling and adjacent-channel coupling loss analysis for TD-LTE deployment.

ABSTRACT: TD-LTE, one of the two duplexing modes in LTE, operates in unpaired spectrum and has the advantages of TDD-based technologies. It is expected that TD-LTE will be more rapidly deployed in near future and most of WiMax operators will upgrade their networks to TD-LTE gradually. Before completely upgrading to TD-LTE, WiMax may coexist with TD-LTE in an adjacent frequency band. In addition, multiple TD-LTE operators may deploy their networks in adjacent bands. When more than one TDD network operates in adjacent frequency bands, severe interference may happen due to adjacent channel interference (ACI) and unsynchronized operations. In this paper, coexistence issues between TD-LTE and other systems are analyzed and coexistence requirements are provided. This paper has three research objectives. First, frame synchronization between TD-LTE and WiMax is discussed by investigating possible combinations of TD-LTE and WiMax configurations. Second, an uplink scheduling algorithm is proposed to utilize a leakage pattern of ACI in synchronized operations. Third, minimum requirements for coexistence in unsynchronized operations are analyzed by introducing a concept of adjacent-channel coupling loss. From the analysis and simulation results, we can see that coexistence of TD-LTE with other TDD systems is feasible if the two networks are synchronized. For the unsynchronized case, some special cell-site engineering techniques may be required to reduce the ACI.

Project description:Estuaries on wave-dominated coasts generally comprise three sedimentary environments: fluvial sands and gravels derived from the catchment; marine sands characteristic of the beaches and nearshore; and silts and clays that accumulate in the sheltered central basin. Estuarine transition to deltaic form occurs when geomorphological maturity is achieved during coastal evolution. Sedimentary plains become infilled and a narrow channel connects the catchment and facilitates the transport of fluvial sediments to the coast. Here, we present modern sedimentary data that supports the idea that the wave-dominated Shoalhaven system in southeastern Australia has transitioned from an estuary to delta, transporting fluvial sediments to the modern adjacent beach and contributing to coastal progradation. A total of 141 bed channel and swash zone samples were collected from the estuarine channel of the Shoalhaven River and the adjacent Comerong Island and Seven Mile Beach, respectively. Surficial sediments were subject to grain size analysis, whereas random quartz grains from selected samples were used to indicate a qualitative degree of weathering using a scan electron microscopy (SEM). Additionally, selected samples were examined for mineralogical composition using x-ray diffraction (XRD) to provide understanding of sediment transport and provenance. The dataset, one of the most comprehensive modern sedimentary coastal records in Australia, can be used to understand the sediment dynamics and support a diverse range of coastal management decisions. The experiment design and analyses also serve as a model that can be replicated elsewhere to better understand fluvial delivery of sediments to the coast. The dataset and analyses presented here support the research article entitled "Evolution from estuary to delta: alluvial plain morphology and sedimentary characteristics of the Shoalhaven River mouth, southeastern Australia" [1], to which readers should refer to for interpretation.
