Task 2. Let's compare the 4G LTE and 5G NR systems from a Doppler-shift perspective and study the significance of a scalable subcarrier spacing in 5G NR. In LTE, the subcarrier spacing of an OFDM transmission is fixed to 15 kHz , while in 5G NR the subcarrier spacing is scalable: in a basic situation one can choose values \(15\mathrm{kHz},30\mathrm{kHz}\) ja \(\mathbf{60 ~ k H z}\) for carrier frequencies below 6 GHz , and values \(\mathbf{60 ~ k H z},120\mathrm{kHz}\) ja 240 kHz for higher frequencies. Moreover, let's consider that the LTE works at the 800 MHz band and 5 G NR at 3.5 GHz band and 28 GHz (millimeter wave) band.
a) Compute the maximum Doppler-shift (in Hz) for LTE ja 5G NR bands by assuming four different mobile speeds: \(4\mathrm{~km}/\mathrm{h}\)(pedestrian),\(50\mathrm{~km}/\mathrm{h}\)(urban vehicular),120\(\mathrm{km}/\mathrm{h}\)(highway vehicular) ja \(300\mathrm{~km}/\mathrm{h}\)(high-speed train)
b) A fundamental requirement for using OFDM is that the channel remains (practically) constant during one OFDM symbol. Compute the channel coherence time (50\% correlation) for different speeds and frequencies.
c) Compute the duration of an OFDM symbol (without guard times) for different subcarrier spacings (both LTE and 5G NR) and compare the symbol duration with the channel coherence time for different speeds/frequencies. Is the duration of OFDM symbols always smaller than the channel coherence time with different speeds/frequencies? For example, would 5G NR at 28 GHz work properly with 15\(\mathbf{k m}/\mathbf{h}\)?
