Abstract

In recent, the LTE(Long-Term Evolution) mobile communication system has been commercialized and a variety of service is being provided. Comparing to the old wireless access systems such as 3G mobile communications, in particular, the LTE system supports a service requiring a high transmission rate by providing broadband wireless access. In order to understand the possibility of successful support of a multimedia service such as IPTV(Internet Protocol Television) through the LTE system, it is necessary to understand the mechanism that decides the transmission rate supported by the LTE system. This paper, therefore, discusses on the relationship between a number of metrics such as CQI and BLER that affects the transmission rate with the measurement results from the field tests.

최근 LTE(Long-Term Evolution) 이동통신시스템이 보급되어 본격적인 서비스가 제공되고 있다. 특히 LTE 시스템은 3G 시스템 등 과거 이동통신시스템 대비 월등한 전송 속도를 보장함으로써 높은 전송 속도를 요구하는 서비스도 이동단말을 통해서 제공될 수 있도록 하고 있다. 향후 IPTV와 같은 멀티미디어 서비스가 LTE 시스템을 통해서 제공되기 위해서는 실제 사용 환경에서 LTE 시스템이 보여주는 전송 속도의 변화에 대한 기본적인 이해가 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 CQI와 BLER과 같은 무선 품질 지표가 LTE 시스템의 전송 속도에 영향을 미치는 체제에 대해서 살펴보고 실측 결과를 통해서 이를 검증한다.
