Comparing results across technologies needs to take simulation assumptions into considerations . UMTS/HSPA(+) and LTE results are based on NGMN or 3GPP evaluation methodology . CDMA 1X and EVDO simulations uses 3GPP2 evaluation methodology . CDMA spectral efficiency would be much higher using NGMN methodology compared to the results from 3GPP2 assumptions High level difference of evaluation methodologies 3GPP2 NGMN 3GPP Cell site-to-site 2.0 0.5 * 2.8* distance (km) Channel model Mix of Ped, Veh One channel model: Mix of Ped and and Rician Urban Macro 3km/h Vehicle models models * Values shown are used to generate previous spectral efficiency results. Other site-to-site distance can be used in 3GPP and NGMN methodology 4 Simulation Assumptions (2) . A total of 2 x 10MHz (20MHz total) spectrum allocation is assumed for all technologies . 7 EV-DO carriers . 2 WCDMA carriers . 1 LTE carrier (2 x 10MHz) . The spectral efficiency results are obtained in interference-limited scenarios typically seen in urban deployments . Rural deployments may not be interference limited . Traffic type is assumed to be full-buffer . Spectral efficiency results will be changed for different type of traffic, e.g. bursty traffic . Spectrum efficiency also depends on number of antennas and receiver type . UL results of HSPA rel 7 and DO rev A/B with full IC assume the BS receiver performing full interference cancellation of pilot, overhead and traffic channels . The number of receiver antennas of BS and mobile is limited to 2 or less, which is typical in current network 5.
