VoLE Overview

Volte provides voice calling over LTE networks by using IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) and session initiation protocol (SIP) signaling. It establishes radio bearers for voice calls that ensure quality of service. The volte architecture runs SIP signaling over the LTE physical layer, which uses OFDM and adaptive scheduling to provide high data rates and low latency. This allows voice calls to be made over LTE's packet-switched network rather than requiring circuit-switched fallback.

HISTRY OF CELLULAR TECHNOLOGY
Multiple Access Technologies
LTE – Targets
› High data rates
– Downlink: >100 Mbps
– Uplink: >50 Mbps
– Cell-edge data rates 2-3 x HSPA Rel. 6 (@ 2006)
› Low delay/latency
– User plane RTT: < 10 ms RAN RTT (fewer nodes, shorter TTI)
– Channel set-up: < 100 ms idle-to-active (fewer nodes, shorter
messages, quicker node resp.)
› High spectral efficiency
– Targeting 3 X HSPA Rel. 6 (@ 2006 )
› Spectrum flexibility
– Operation in a wide-range of spectrum allocations, new and
existing
– Wide range of Bandwidth: 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20 MHz, FDD and
TDD
› Cost-effective migration from current/future 3G systems
› State-of-the-art towards 4G
LTE Physical Layer
Δf=15kHz User #2 scheduled
User #1 scheduled

› Downlink: Adaptive OFDM and OFDMA User #3


scheduled
– Channel-dependent scheduling and link adaptation
in time and frequency domain

frequency 180 kHz


› Uplink: SC-FDMA with dynamic bandwidth (Pre-coded OFDM)
– Low PAPR  Higher power efficiency
– Reduced uplink interference (enables intra-cell
orthogonality )

› Multi-Antennas, both RBS and terminal frequency

– MIMO, antenna beams, TX- and RX diversity, interference rejection


– High bit rates and high capacity TX RX

• Flexible bandwidth
– Possible to deploy in 6 different bandwidths
up to 20 MHz
1.4 3 5 10 15 20 MHz
› Harmonized FDD and TDD concept
– Maximum commonality between FDD and TDD FDD-only Half-duplex FDD TDD-only
fDL fDL fDL/UL
› Minimum UE capability: BW = 20 MHz

INTRODUCTION TO VOLTE
• LTE is a packet only architecture
designed to improve data performance
. It does not support CS voice or
Video call.
• In order to accommodate voice on
LTE , two approach were taken i.e.
CSFB (Circuit Switch Fall Back) and
VOLTE (Voice over LTE)
• GSMA voice over LTE has evolved as
a preferred standard for a telephony
solution in LTE that has been
accepted by the operator community .
• GSMA has defined Voice over LTE
VOLTE END-TO-END (SIMPLIFIED VIEW)

Mobile Originator : “A “ Mobile Terminator: “B”


VOLTE RADIO BEARER SETUP
BEARER MANAGEMENT FOR QOS

• Each QCI is related to certain transport


characteristics .
• Out of 256 possible QCIs , 9 of them have been
standardizes
SIP SIGNALING

• SIP (Session Initiation


Protocol) is an application
layer protocol.
• It runs on TCP, UDP and
SCTP.
• It has been developed and
defined by IETF ( Internet
Engineering Task Force).
• It is used for IMS Signaling.
SIP REQUEST MESSEGES
• REGISTER : Used by a UA to
indicate its current IP address and
URLs for which it would like to
receive calls.
• INVITE: Used to establish a media
session between agents.
• ACK: Confirms reliable message
exchanges.
• CANCEL: Terminate a pending
requests.
• BYE : Terminate a session between
two user in a conference.
