Abstract
High data rate requirements of the Long Term Evolution - Advanced (LTE-A) systems can be achieved by adopting advanced Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna techniques on both uplink and downlink. The LTE air-interface supports multiple-antenna transmit arrays and different modes of multiple antenna transmissions. In this paper, performance of different MIMO techniques is evaluated using QualNet network simulator. The MIMO techniques considered for performance evaluation are SingleInput/Multiple-Output (SIMO), Open Loop Spatial Multiplexing (OLSM) and Space-Frequency Block Coding (SFBC). The performance metrics considered are throughput, delay and jitter.
