Psc is 18 subcarriers and Nsym is 6, 7, and 5 OFDMA symbols. Logical Resource Unit (LRU) is the basic logical unit for localized and distributed resource allocations. Distributed Resource Unit (DRU) achieves frequency diversity gain by grouping of subcarriers which are spread across the distributed resources within a frequency partition. Localized Resource Unit or Contiguous Resource Unit (CRU) achieves frequency- selective scheduling gain by grouping subcarriers which are contiguous across the localized resource allocations within a frequency partition. 14 DL/UL Subchannelization and Permutation . Concurrent distributed and localized transmissions in the subframe – UL/DL DRU: tiles/tone-pair permutation ( similar to UL/DL PUSC in the legacy standard) – Sub-band CRU: localized resource with band selection (similar to band AMC in the legacy standard) – Mini-band CRU: diversity resource with dedicated pilots . Concurrent frequency reuse-1 and FFR – Up to 4 frequency partitions: one reuse-1 and three reuse-3 – Low power transmission is allowed on other segments’ reuse-3 frequency partitions . UL is similar to DL structure except – UL DRU use tile similar to PUSC tile (instead of subcarrier) – Legacy support with IEEE 802.16m PUSC mode (4x6 tile) 15 DL/UL Subchannelization and Permutation 16 Sub-band Mini-band Frequency CRU/DRU Subcarrier permutation Partitioning Permutation Partitioning Allocation CRU(FP0) 0 1 2 3 FP0 20 0 21 1 SB SB 2 PRU 0 0 DRU(FP0) 1 1 3 12 0 12 1 2 2 20 28 2 3 3 36 8 8 28 44 3 36 4 9 9 44 13 5 10 10 29 11 11 13 6 21 7 16 16 29 CRU(FP1) 8 17 17 8 9 18 18 9 10 19 19 FP1 24 24 8 10 11 11 12 25 25 9 16 13 26 26 10 17 48 Physical Resource Units Resource Physical 48 27 27 11 Units Resource Logical 48 14 18 15 32 32 16 19 16 33 33 17 17 34 34 18 18 35 35 19 DRU(FP1) 19 40 40 37 37 20 41 41 45 45 21 42 42 14 14 22 43 43 22 22 23 4 4 24 5 5 6 6 FP2 CRU(FP2) 25 24 24 26 7 7 25 25 27 26 26 28 MB PMB 27 27 29 12 12 32 32 30 13 20 33 33 31 14 28 34 34 32 15 36 35 35 33 20 44 30 34 21 13 38 35 DRU(FP2) 22 21 46 30 36 23 29 15 37 28 37 38 38 46 29 45 FP3 15 39 30 14 40 31 22 40 41 41 36 30 42 CRU(FP3) 42 37 38 40 43 38 46 43 41 44 4 39 15 5 42 45 44 23 43 46 45 31 6 4 47 46 39 7 5 47 47 23 6 31 39 7 47 DRU(FP3) 23 31 39 47 Multi-cell steps 17 DL/UL Pilot Patterns .

The systems deployed must be thoroughly tested and must conform to their standards. Software and network protocols are commonly tested with techniques like fuzzing, penetration testing, code review, conformance testing. With fuzzing, testers can send crafted inputs to monitor the System Under Test (SUT) for a response. 3GPP, the standardiza- tion body for the telecom system, produces new versions of specifications as part of continuously evolving features and enhancements. This leads to many versions of specifications for a network protocol like Radio Resource Control (RRC), and testers need to constantly update the testing tools and the testing environment.

    DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF RADIO RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN OFDMA NETWORKS Javad Zolfaghari Institute for Theoretical Information Technology RWTH Aachen University DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF RADIO RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN OFDMA NETWORKS Javad Zolfaghari A thesis submitted to the Department of Signal Theory and Communications, Technical University of Catalonia-Barcelona Tech, reviewed by Dr. Michael Reyer and Dr. Anna Umbert on 14th December 2013 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of master in Information and Communications Technology Master of Science in Electrical Engineering, Information and Communications Technology Institute for Theoretical Information Technology RWTH Aachen University I assure the single handed composition of this master’s thesis only supported by declared resources. Information derived from those resources has been acknowledged in the text and references are given in the bibliography. Aachen, 14th December 2013 Abstract Inter-cell interference is of great interest and one of the essential issues for wireless oper- ators who want to provide full coverage within their service area and guarantee a certain Quality of Service (QoS) to all users. In this thesis the resource allocation problem in an OFDMA based multi-cell network is formulated. Since no algorithm with polynomial running time exists due to non-linearity and combinatorial nature of underlying problem we adopted a heuristic approach with low computational cost and acceptable performance loss. We address specifically sharing available radio resources among users in terms of bandwidth allocation in order to suppress inter-cell interference. Besides, cell assignment and power allocation is foreseen. Performance of proposed schemes were evaluated by simulation network properly aligned with 3GPP LTE network.
