Abstract
In parallel with ongoing standardization of third generation partnership
project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution – Advanced (LTE A), also referred as 4G,
the discussion on next generation beyond 4G (B4G) radio access technologies is
already active. Purpose of B4G system, expected to be available in 2020, is
to cope with the exponential increase of mobile data traffic. In this paper we
analyze the feasibility of LTE-A and wireless local area network (WLAN)
physical frames against B4G requirements and discuss how the B4G environment,
radio channel properties and evolved component technology affect the design of
the physical layer frame. We analyze the B4G physical subframe numerology
including aspects such as time division duplex (TDD) switching time and cyclic
prefix (CP) duration. The proposed numerology allows to design a
B4G-optimized TDD physical subframe structure which further enables reaching
the very tight physical layer round trip time (RTT) requirements.
