Paper 3.1 A Mixed-Mode Vector-Based Dataflow Approach for Modeling and Simulating LTE Physical Layer

ABSTRACT
Long Term Evolution (LTE)
synchronous dataflow (SDF)
Mixed mode Vector-based Dataflow (MVDF)

1. INTRODUCTION
In SDF, a system is represented as a dataflow graph consisting of functional models.

The effort in using SDF/TSDF to develop physical layer reference designs, however, encounters fundamental limitations due to the constant rate constraint in SDF semantics.

4. LTE PHYSICAL LAYER ANALYSIS
In this section, we analyze LTE physical layer from dataflow point of view.

A transport block, denoted as a = a0, a1, . . . , aA−1, where A is the transport block size, is a sequence of bits to be transmitted in the shared channel to a user or a set of users.
