LTE DL Tput Calculation

The maximum data rate in LTE depends on the channel bandwidth, with higher bandwidths allowing for greater data rates. For example, with a 5 MHz channel the maximum downlink rate is 25.2 Mbps, using 300 subcarriers each carrying 6 bits per symbol over a 71.4 microsecond symbol duration. Similarly, 10 MHz and 20 MHz channels provide maximum downlink rates of 50.4 Mbps and 100.8 Mbps respectively, following the formula of subcarriers x bits per symbol / symbol duration.

The maximum data rate depends on channel bandwidth.

As LTE uses
different channel bandwidths both for FDD and TDD.

Let’s take the example for LTE using FDD, where channel bandwidth can
be 5 MHz, 10 MHz and 20 MHz. In LTE release 8 there is no carrier
aggregation, so let’s just consider simple cases.

Here we are calculating maximum data rate at the physical layer. The data
rate always depends on the channel bandwidth. For example, in case of 5
MHz channel bandwidth, 300 subcarriers are used.
For a perfect idle condition 64 QAM can be used. That means each symbol
is now allowed to carry 6 bits.
So the total bits carried by 300 subcarriers for the duration of a symbol
is 300 X 6 = 1800 bits.
Again 1 symbol is of 71.4 microseconds for LTE. So the data rate
is 1800 / 71.4 = 25.2 Mbps.

So the formula for calculating maximum data rate at physical layer is:

(Number of subcarriers X 6) / 71.4 microseconds

For 10 MHz using the same formula the maximum data rate in downlink is
50.4 Mbps and for 20 MHz it is 100.8 Mbps.
