In Chapter 8, the LTE radio-interface architecture was discussed with an overview of the functions and characteristics of the different protocol layers. Chapter 9 then gave an overview of the time-frequency structure of LTE transmissions including the structure of the basic OFDM time-frequency grid being the fundamental physical ...
