This document discusses and compares wireless communication technologies including OFDMA, SC-FDMA, CDMA, and LTE. It provides an overview of these technologies, how they have evolved over time, and their performance. Key points discussed include how LTE uses OFDMA for downlinks and SC-FDMA for uplinks, the benefits of MIMO techniques for improving spectral efficiency, and methods for estimating signal-to-noise ratio to enable adaptive modulation schemes. The document also includes figures comparing parameters of various wireless standards.
