A common evolution path…

Long Term Evolution (LTE) is

the next generation broadband

wireless technology for 3GPP

and 3GPP2 networks

What is LTE ?

OFDMA

MIMO

Flat IP

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 taste of 4G…

…based on highly efficient technologies

Enabling new applications,

lowering cost

Peer to peer applications

requiring high throughput

Online gaming

Flat fee trend

Increased link capacity

Multiple-input, multiple-output UL& DL.

Collaborative MIMO (UL).

Overcome multi-path interference

Flat, scalable

Short TTI: 1 ms (2 ms for HSPA).

Backhaul based on IP / MPLS transport.

Fits with IMS, VoIP, SIP
