Implementation of LTE Networks in Indian Terrain: Practicality and Throughput Evaluation

Jayasankar.S, Ann Susan Varghese

Abstract: Long Term Evolution is the upcoming mobile technology that is going to serve 862M subscribers in India with its ultrafast data speed. Indian vendors already invested almost 100000 crore so as to develop the infrastructure to serve this exploding subscribers in India. This paper checks the maximum data that can be delivered with the infrastructure with an eye towards the Indian terrain and vegetation with some propagation models and the noise and interference effects. Monte Carlo Analysis Methods are adopted and Prediction tools and a Monte Carlo Analysis tool for Communication system is used for the simulation. An RF planning approach for LTE network in India especially in Kerala using Atoll software.
