On achieving the Shannon bound in cellular systems

Abstract: This contribution provides insight into the performance of the currently deployed 3G cellular systems HSDPA and WiMAX. In extensive measurement campaigns we measured the physical layer throughput of these 3G systems in different environments (alpine and urban) and compare the results rigorously to their upper bounds derived from the well known Shannon capacity. By separating the observed losses into a channel state information loss, a design loss, and an implementation loss, we gain more insight into the perfo… Show more

“…At a rate of 16 Mbit/s, the difference between achievable mutual information and simulated throughput is approximately 4 dB. These findings are similar to the results we obtained when analyzing the performance of WiMAX and High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) in [72]. Figure 10 furthermore shows that, for SNRs lower than 14 dB, the TxD mode outperforms OLSM.…”

“…We show both the absolute and relative losses for these scenarios. The interested reader will find detailed comparisons of WiMAX and HSDPA in both urban and alpine environments in [43]- [45], [47], and [48]. Additionally, (1 Â 1)-, (2 Â 2)-, and even nonstandard (4 Â 4)-element MIMO-aided HSDPA transmission results can also be found in [43]- [45] and [48].…”
