This course covers in detail the radio air interface of an LTE network. A brief review of earlier 2G and 3G cellular systems, GSM, EDGE, HSPA, and UMTS is explored first. These earlier cellular systems are then compared and contrasted with the current architecture of LTE, with particular emphasis on the channels, signals, frame structures, modulation schemes, protocol stack and antenna techniques.
