Indoor LTE uplink cell planning considerations for symmetrical and unsymmetrical MIMO techniques

Uplink planning considerations for LTE FDD networks is considered to be essential, providing guaranteed service minimum requirements at cell edge by considering operator determined minimum throughput. Uplink user throughput is mostly degraded due to in-band interference, depending on neighbor cell load conditions and on the same time is increased due to higher MIMO rank configuration. In this paper uplink simulation analyses have been conducted...
