Performance analysis of MIMO-LTE using various modulation schemes under different channels

International Telecommunication Union (ITU) approved that Long Term Evolution(LTE)-Advanced comes under fourth generation (4G) communications systems, with expected downlink peak data rates in excess of 1Gbps (for Release 10 and beyond). LTE PHYsical layer (PHY) specifications are introduced by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). In this paper, the performance analysis of MIMO-LTE networks using various modulation schemes under different channels. i.e., EPA 0Hz, EVA 5Hz, EVA 70Hz is presented. Further, Bit Error Rate (BER) of LTE is calculated by varying Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) for two different Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) schemes under different channels.
