Abstract:

Recently,a new technology called LTE-U proposed by 3GPP is under study. It aims to relieve the pressure in licensed spectrum. Firstly,an overview of LTE-U was presented,and then the working frequency spectrum and design principles were analyzed. The possible deployment scenarios and operation modes of LTE-U were also summarized. The difficulties in deploying LTE-U and existing solutions were discussed particularly. Finally,several possible future research directions of LTE-U were presented.

Key words: LTE, LTE-U, unlicensed band, co-existence
