Most of the 3G UMTS networks use a frequency division duplex scheme where uplink and downlink transmit simultaneously and use different frequencies. However time division duplex, TDD where uplink and down link use the same frequency but transmit at different times has some distinct advantages in some circumstances .
Read moreWhat’s the difference between TDD LTE and FDD LTE?
LTE-FDD implies that downlink and uplink transmission take place in different, sufficiently separated, frequency bands, while TDD implies that downlink and uplink transmission take place in different, non overlapping time slots.
Read moreWhat is the advantage of FDD?
Following are the benefits or advantages of FDD: ➨It is proven technology for voice traffic . It is designed for symmetric traffic and do not require guard time like TDD. ➨It uses paired spectrum on continuous basis for both the directions and hence it can achieve higher rates for similar distances as TDD system.

In general, FDD is considered better for coverage, while TDD is better for capacity .20 Nis 2021
Read moreWhy do TDD bands have an advantage over FDD when it comes to MIMO operation?
The main reason is that, as we already know, different frequencies encounter different channel effects . Thus, as TDD fosters uplink/downlonk on the same frequency band, the result is better channel estimation as compared to FDD. FDD in contrast, utilizes different frequencies for each transmissiom direction.
Read moreWhat is TDD in 4G?
TDD means the transmission and reception occur on the same frequency , but each only for a split second, alternating between the two. That’s great for mobile Internet use, because you can use more of the bandwidth available for either downloading or uploading, whichever you happen to be doing.2 Ağu 2013
Read moreDoes LTE use FDD or TDD?
LTE is able to utilise both frequency division and time division, FDD & TDD (TD-LTE) forms of duplex to accommodate the uplink and downlink. LTE can utilise both FDD – frequency division duplex and TDD – time division duplex, often referred to as TD-LTE.
