Flexible bandwidth assignment in LTE supports
- A.
TDMA
- B.
FDMA
- C.
TDMA and FDMA
Correct Answer
C. TDMA and FDMAExplanation
Flexible bandwidth assignment in LTE supports both TDMA and FDMA. TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) is a technique that divides the available frequency into time slots, allowing multiple users to share the same frequency band by transmitting in different time slots. FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access) divides the available frequency into different frequency bands, allowing multiple users to transmit simultaneously on different frequency bands. LTE's flexible bandwidth assignment allows for efficient utilization of the available spectrum by dynamically allocating time slots and frequency bands to users based on their needs, ensuring optimal use of the resources and enhancing overall network capacity.Rate this question:

A resource block in LTE has
- A.
A bandwidth of 180 kHz and a duration of 1 ms
- B.
A bandwidth of 15 kHz and a duration of 0.5 ms
Correct Answer
A. A bandwidth of 180 kHz and a duration of 1 msExplanation
In LTE, a resource block refers to the smallest unit of allocation in the frequency domain. It has a bandwidth of 180 kHz, which means it can accommodate a certain amount of data. The duration of a resource block is 1 ms, indicating the time it takes to transmit the data within that bandwidth. Therefore, the correct answer is that a resource block in LTE has a bandwidth of 180 kHz and a duration of 1 ms.Rate this question:

The advantage of DFTS-OFDM over OFDM is
- A.
Having higher spectrum efficiency
- B.
Reducing cubic metric for uplink transmission and enabling higher terminal power amplifier efficiency
Correct Answer
B. Reducing cubic metric for uplink transmission and enabling higher terminal power amplifier efficiencyExplanation
DFTS-OFDM has an advantage over OFDM because it reduces the cubic metric for uplink transmission and enables higher terminal power amplifier efficiency. This means that DFTS-OFDM is able to improve the efficiency of power amplifiers used in transmitting signals, leading to a reduction in the amount of distortion and interference in the uplink transmission. This ultimately results in better overall performance and higher efficiency in terms of power usage.Rate this question:

The advantage of OFDM over DFTS-OFDM is
- A.
Having higher spectrum efficiency
- B.
Reducing cubic metric for uplink transmission and enabling higher terminal power amplifier efficiency
Correct Answer
A. Having higher spectrum efficiencyExplanation
OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) has a higher spectrum efficiency compared to DFTS-OFDM (Discrete Fourier Transform Spread-OFDM). This means that OFDM can transmit more data within the available bandwidth, allowing for increased capacity and improved utilization of the frequency spectrum. By efficiently utilizing the spectrum, OFDM enables higher data rates and better overall performance in wireless communication systems.Rate this question:

LTE is
- A.
A circuit switching system
- B.
A packet switching system
- C.
A packet and circuit switching system
Correct Answer
B. A packet switching systemExplanation
LTE stands for Long Term Evolution, which is a standard for wireless broadband communication. It is widely used for 4G networks. LTE is a packet switching system, which means that data is divided into small packets and transmitted over the network. This allows for more efficient use of network resources and faster data transfer speeds. Unlike circuit switching systems, which establish a dedicated connection for the duration of a call, packet switching systems can handle multiple connections simultaneously. Therefore, the correct answer is that LTE is a packet switching system.Rate this question:

The number of packets required to perform hybrid ARQ with soft combining is
- A.
Two or more packets
- B.
One packet
Correct Answer
A. Two or more packetsExplanation
Hybrid ARQ with soft combining is a technique that combines multiple packets to improve the reliability of data transmission. In this technique, if errors are detected in a packet, instead of discarding it, the receiver stores the packet and combines it with subsequent packets to recover the original data. Therefore, to perform hybrid ARQ with soft combining, two or more packets are required to be transmitted.Rate this question:

In inter-cell interference coordination ICIC two neighboring base stations cannot use the same frequency bands to communicate with a terminal
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
In inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC), neighboring base stations can use the same frequency bands to communicate with a terminal. ICIC techniques are designed to mitigate interference between adjacent cells, allowing them to share the same frequency resources efficiently. This helps to improve overall network capacity and performance. Therefore, the statement that two neighboring base stations cannot use the same frequency bands in ICIC is false.Rate this question:

The number of packets required to perform hybrid ARQ is
- A.
Two or more packets
- B.
One packet
Correct Answer
B. One packetExplanation
Hybrid ARQ (Automatic Repeat Request) is a communication protocol that combines both forward error correction and retransmission techniques to ensure reliable data transmission. In the context of this question, the correct answer is "one packet" because hybrid ARQ can achieve error correction and retransmission with just a single packet. This is possible by including redundancy in the packet itself, allowing the receiver to detect and correct errors without the need for additional packets.Rate this question:

At a low SINR scenario, multiple antennas should be used as
- A.
MIMO
- B.
Receive and transmit diversity
Correct Answer
B. Receive and transmit diversityExplanation
In a low SINR (Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio) scenario, the signal quality is poor and the chances of interference and noise are high. By using multiple antennas, such as in MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) systems, both receive and transmit diversity can be achieved. Receive diversity helps in improving the signal quality by combining the signals received from multiple antennas, reducing the impact of interference and noise. Transmit diversity, on the other hand, allows the transmitter to send multiple versions of the same signal from different antennas, increasing the chances of the receiver capturing a good quality signal. Therefore, using multiple antennas in a low SINR scenario improves the overall performance and reliability of the communication system.Rate this question:

At a high SINR scenario, multiple antennas should be used as
- A.
MIMO
- B.
Receive and transmit diversity
Correct Answer
A. MIMOExplanation
In a high SINR scenario, using multiple antennas through MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology can improve the overall system performance. MIMO allows for the transmission and reception of multiple data streams simultaneously, increasing the data rate and improving the overall signal quality. By using multiple antennas, MIMO can achieve spatial multiplexing, which helps to combat fading and interference, resulting in a more robust and reliable wireless communication system. Additionally, MIMO can also provide transmit diversity, where multiple antennas are used to transmit the same signal, enhancing the signal strength and reducing the impact of fading.Rate this question:
