5G-XCast released its deliverable D3.1 on LTE-Advanced Pro Broadcast Radio Access Network Benchmark

5G-XCast shares its WP3 deliverable D3.1 “LTE-Advanced Pro Broadcast Radio Access Network Benchmark”.

This report defines technical requirements for the WP3 on Radio Access Network (RAN) for the use cases of the four vertical sectors on Media & Entertainment, Public Warning, Automotive, and
Internet of Things. The selection of the Key Performance Indicators (KPI) and evaluation methodology for the RAN benchmark has been aligned with one defined by the ITU-R for the IMT2020 RIT evaluation process. The main target in the performance evaluation of the technical KPIs has been the technical standard 3GPP Rel’14 LTE-Advanced-Pro specification for both Point-to-Point (PTP) and Point-to-Multipoint (PTM) transmission modes. For PTM the evaluation has includes SCPTM, eMBMS (MBSFN) and ATSC 3.0 systems. The selected test environments are representative of the WP2 use cases and are also aligned to the test environments as defined in the IMT-2020 evaluation guidelines. The performance evaluation will serve as the benchmark to compare with the performance of 5G-Xcast new radio solutions developed throughout the project.
