Title: TD-LTE Evolution and Future 5G Directions
Abstract:
TD-LTE
has
been
regarded
as
an
important
milestone
for
the
Chinese
telecommunication
industry
in
the
4G
era,
and
it
has
received
considerable
attention
around
the
world
and
has
shown
astonishingly
fast
development
in
recent
years.
This
presentation
presents
TD-LTE
status
and
its
standardization
evolution.
Furthermore,
in
order
to
meet
the
requirement
of
the
information
society
in
2020
and
beyond,
a
new
generation
(5G)
mobile
broadband
system
is
promoted.
After
presenting
an
overview
of
5G
including
scenarios,
KPIs
and
technology
roadmaps,
this
presentation
pays
attention
to
TDD’s
role
in
5G
and
finally
presents
a
series
of
TDD
priority
technologies,
such
as
massive
MIMO,
ultra
dense
network,
high
frequency
bands,
flexible
spectrum
sharing
and
also
Pattern
Division
Multiple
Access
(PDMA).
Finally,
this
presentation
points
out
that
TDD
will
play
a
more
important
role
in
5G.
