8 Why testing LTE at all? Some bullet points l LTE uses a complex physical layer with a high demand on testing, l OFDM is in general very sensitive to frequency and clock offsets, l SC-FDMA: verify that the PAPR 1) is really low(er) to minimize UL interference, l Bandwidths up to 20 MHz are used by LTE, which requires power amplifier and IQ modulators to have a flat frequency response, l Usage of higher-order modulation schemes (16QAM, 64QAM) requires high modulation accuracy even when noise, fading and interferences are present, l No transmit filter definition in LTE, as for 3G technologies, l In-channel performance (i.e. EVM) and out-of-channel performance (i.e. ACLR, SEM) requirements need to be met by the design, l Testing multiple use of antennas (MIMO) as part of performance requirements, l Transmit diversity, spatial multiplexing (closed-looped and open loop). 1) Peak-to-Average Power Ratio A. Roessler and G. Pfeifer February
