LTE uses two different radio links for downlink and uplink, that is, from tower to device, and vice versa. For the downlink, LTE uses an OFDMA (orthogonal frequency division multiple access), which requires MIMO.
What you are referring to is called plaque, and it's a hallmark of atherosclerosis or arteriosclerosis (they both mean the same thing). Basically, cholesterol deposits end up lining the interior walls (lumen, intima) of the arteries narrowing the opening.
Atherosclerosis is a disease in which plaque builds up inside your arteries. Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood to your heart and other parts of your body. Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood. Over time, plaque hardens and narrows your arteries.hese arteries supply oxygen-rich blood to your heart. Plaque narrows the coronary arteries and reduces blood flow to your heart muscle. Plaque buildup also makes it more likely that blood clots will form in your arteries. Blood clots can partially or completely block blood flow.
