IntroductionWelcome to the world of LTE!

What is LTE?

• LTE is the next generation of Mobile broadband technology

• Data rates of 100 Mbps

• It is the next level after UMTS 3G technology

• Works with IP!

Advantages•Provides low latency

•Higher network throughput

•Increased data transfer speed

•More cost effectiveness

•Improvements over 3G network

LTE v/s Other technologies

2G (14.4 Kbps

)

2.5G (384 Kbps

)

3G (14.4 Mbps

)

LTE (115 Mbps

)

4G (1 Gbps

)

2G to 4G Evolution and data download rates

Technical ArchitectureWhat is an LTE Network made up of?

LTE Technologies

•OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) for downlink

•SC-FDMA (Single Carrier – Frequency Division Multiple Access) for uplink

•MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output)

•SAE (System Architecture Evolution)

LTE Network Elements

•Evolved Node B (eNB) Supports air interface Provides radio resource management

functions

• Serving Gateway (SGW) Provides Mobility Responsible for Routing and Forwarding

LTE Network Elements (Continued)•Packet Data Network Gateway (PDN GW)

Provides connectivity to Internet Provides QoS and mobility between 3G and

non-3G networks•Mobility Management Entity (MME)

Manages mobility and provides security Operates in control plane and provides

authentication

Business Case for LTE

• What is the LTE market opportunity and implications for the broader ecosystem, including equipment providers, operators, and device manufacturers?

• What are the revenue incentives and investment implications for operators who adopt LTE?

ConclusionWhat does the future hold for LTE?

LTE Future and Uses

•Mass deployment to begin around 2012

•Devices which are covered under LTE are – Mobile phones, laptops, cameras, camcorders

•Assured interoperability with older wireless technologies such as GSM, WCDMA/HSPA, CDMA, TD-SCDMA

LTE Advanced

•Mobile Communication Standard As a major enhancement of the 3GPP LTE

Standard•Peak data rates of 1 Gbps to meet IMT

Advanced standards for 4G•Ability to leverage advanced topology

heterogenous networks such as Picocells and Femtocells

•Improves capacity and coverage and provides large bandwidth upto 100 MHz of spectrum

Conclusion
