Chapter 10: LTE URLLC performance

Abstract

This chapter shows the performance of LTE URLLC, comparing the technology to the existing 5G requirements put up by ITU (IMT-2020). Each 5G requirement applicable to URLLC is presented, together with the performance of LTE. Fulfilling the requirements involve both analytical calculations based on the existing design as well as system level and link level simulations. The performance evaluation includes user plane latency. Control plane latency and reliability evaluations. It is concluded that LTE can fulfill the 5G URLLC requirements.
