ELEN E6771 Final Assignment
Due date: Wednesday 5pm EST, March 9, 2018
How: Please use appropriate editors (MS word, pdf …) to present your work (no
hand writing please).
Exercise 1 (Create your 5G essay)
Be creative! Use your imagination to create a 5G scenario which allows a 5G gNB to

graciously support the following services (consistent with the targets of Figure 1):
- 3 users performing file downloads at rates of 100 Mbps
- 3 users performing file uploads at rates of 50 Mbps
- 10 users requiring ultra-reliability and radio latency under 1 ms and minimal
transmission rate of 50 kbps whenever active
- 100000 IoT sensors with 10 years battery life, where each IoT sensor needs
to wake up every 5 minutes to transmit 5 bits of information
Use appropriate drawings and calculations to demonstrate your ideas.
Note: Feel free to make assumptions that are consistent with 5G spectrum,
architecture, bandwidth, subframe, slot, symbols, etc. Due to the diversity of
assumptions allowed to be made, the expectation is that the essay will be student
specific.

Exercise 2 (OFDM Fundamentals)
This is an extension of the “E6771/OFDM Fundamentals 1” problem statement (for

which the complete mathematical framework & solution was provided by the
instructor). This was referred as “Channel transmission: Case 1 – no con-channel
interferers”. It was an ideal case, where only a single user is active in the channel.
The following more practical case with activity for several users (yet in perfect
timing and synchronization conditions as in Case 1) is considered in this exercise:
Channel transmission: Case 2 – In the presence of co-channels interferers (no

timing and synchronization errors)
For Case 2, desired signal, radio channel and noise are subject to the same
assumption as in “OFDMA Fundamentals 1”. The only difference with respect to
“OFDM Fundamentals 1” is the presence of interferers in the channel. In formal
mathematical terms, I(t) is the resulting signal from all interferers, which gets
added to the AWGN noise, as illustrated in Figure 1.

z(t ) = h(τ , t ) * s(t ) + I (t ) + n(t ) = ∫ h(τ , t)s(t −τ )dτ + I (t) + n(t)
0
The range of integration in this convolutional integral (* denotes the convolution

operator) has been limited to [0, τmax] because the channel impulse response is
zero elsewhere.
The following assumptions are being made:
- the channel is considered quasi-static during the transmission of the m-th
symbol, implying:
h(τ , t ) = hm (τ )
- the maximum excess delay, τmax, is smaller than the cyclic prefix
τ max < Tguard
1.a: Find the expression of the output demodulated signal represented by the m-th
symbol on the k-th OFDM subcarrier, noted by zk,m.
1.b: Find the CINRk,m, which is the subcarrier to noise and interference ratio for
the k-th OFDM subcarrier during the m-th symbol.
Hint: Assume a limited number of interferers, N. Assuming that the j-th interferer
transmits its m-th symbol on the k-th OFDM subcarrier, resulting in the complex
symbol denoted as d ( j ) k , m , the resulting m-th OFDM symbol for the j-th interferer is
represented mathematically as following:
  M2 
j 2π  f c +
k 
 ( t − mTs ) 
 
Re ∑ d k , me
( j)  TFFT   mT − T ≤ t ≤ mT + T
d m (t − mTs ) =   k = M
( j)
 s g s FFT
  1

 0 otherwise
This signal from the j-th interferer propagates through its own radio channel
g ( j ) (τ , t ) . Note that each interferer is characterized by its own channel with
specific amplitude and phase components. However, since the transmissions occur
on the same type of environment, the delay profile is the same for desired signal
and interferers, and all channels experience the same delay spread.
The generic channel impulse response for the j-th interferer is represented as:
g ( j ) (τ , t ) = ∑ β ( j )i (t )e − jθ δ (τ − τ i (t ))
( j)
i (t )
where β ( j ) i , θ i and τ i represent the amplitude, phase and delay, respectively,

( j)
for the i-th path of the j-th interferer.
