An Introduction of 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE)
Outline
What is LTE ?
In Nov. 2004, 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership
Project) began a project to define the Long-Term
Evolution (LTE) of Universal Mobile
Telecommunications System (UMTS) cellular
technology
Higher performance
Backwards compatible
Wide applications
History of LTE
LTE is a standard for wireless data communications
technology and an evolution of the GSM/UMTS standards.
The goal of LTE was to increase the capacity and speed of
wireless data networks using new DSP (digital signal
processing) techniques and modulations.
A further goal was the redesign and simplification of the
network architecture to an IP-based system with
significantly reduced transfer latency compared to the 3G
architecture.
The LTE wireless interface is incompatible with 2G and 3G
networks, so that it must be operated on a separate wireless
spectrum.

History of LTE(Contd)
LTE was first proposed by NTT DoCoMo of Japan
in 2004, and studies on the new standard officially
commenced in 2005.
The LTE standard was finalized in December 2008,
and the first publicly available LTE service was
launched by TeliaSonera in Oslo and Stockholm on
December 14, 2009 as a data connection with a
USB modem.
Samsung Galaxy Indulge being the worlds first
LTE smartphone starting on February 10, 2011.

History of LTE(Contd)
Initially, CDMA operators planned to upgrade to
rival standards called UMB and WiMAX
But all the major CDMA operators (such as
Verizon, Sprint and MetroPCS in the United States,
Bell and Telus in Canada, au by KDDI in Japan,
SK Telecom in South Korea and China
Telecom/China Unicom in China) have announced
that they intend to migrate to LTE after all.
The evolution of LTE is LTE Advanced, which was
standardized in March 2011. Services are expected
to commence in 2013.
