What is LTE ?
Robust modulation in dense environments
OFDMA (DL) / SC-FDMA (UL) Increased spectral efficiency. Simplified Rx design Cheaper UE Scalable - go beyond 5 MHz limitation

A common evolution path

OFDMA
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the next generation broadband wireless technology for 3GPP and 3GPP2 networks

Increased link capacity

Enabling new applications, lowering cost


Peer to peer applications requiring high throughput Online gaming Flat fee trend

MIMO

Multiple-input, multiple-output UL& DL. Collaborative MIMO (UL). Overcome multi-path interference

Flat, scalable

Flat IP

Short TTI: 1 ms (2 ms for HSPA). Backhaul based on IP / MPLS transport. Fits with IMS, VoIP, SIP

A taste of 4G
* Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access

based on highly efficient technologies
