MIMO
In a Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) system, the edge throughput and average cell throughput targets are 10 times higher than the LTE Rel-8 targets. The newly launched collaborative multipoint (CoMP) reception in LTE-A and previously adopted beamforming technology are possible ways to enhance system performance in terms of edge throughput, while the higher-order single-user multiple-input, multiple-output (SU-MIMO) and multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) are the possible dominant technologies introduced in LTE-A to enhance the peak and ...
