LTE has proved itself to be more challenging than its other counterpart\'s technologies and it\'s often been referred to as the leap into a new generation technology - fourth Generation (4G). When compared to other existing 4G technologies like Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), it has shown superiority in terms of high mobility, back-ward compatibility with older generations, and also it supports both paired and unpaired spectrum, these factors makes it a dominant network of choice amongst mobile operators today. Starting from this premise, it is vivid that all aspects of LTE topics are worth investigating for both the industrial and academic communities. This work evaluates the performance of the paired used for Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) and unpaired used for Time Division Duplex (TDD) spectrum in LTE in terms of mobility, an important factor to consider in mobile cellular networks. This is when a mobile user is moving while active; the user\'s velocity causes a doppler effect, a phase shift in the frequency of the signal transmitted along each signal path which leads to fading. This work characterizes users\' mobility speed based on real-life scenarios average 5 km/h for pedestrian, average 70 km/h for mobile users on vehicle speed and average of 300 km/h for mobile users on high speed train. It has compared the TDD and FDD performance in terms of bit error rate (BER) with respect to signal noise ratios (SNR), a fundamental parameter to access the quality of digital transmission, considering different modulation schemes across different fading channels.
