Abstract
This chapter fully describes the digital modulation process used in 4G, including OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) and SC-FDMA (Single-Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access), and related concepts such as Baud Rate, Symbol Rate, Sampling Time (TS), RB (Resource Block), RE (Resource Elements) and Frame. This chapter also discusses in detail the calculation of possible throughputs according to different parameters reaching up to 100 Mbps.
