LTE

Long Term Evolution (LTE) delivers a highly compelling user experience with ultra-broadband speeds and almost instantaneous responsiveness for mega multimedia applications. For operators, LTE provides a much improved business proposition with incredible spectrum flexibility, significant added capacity and a platform for delivering premium applications cost effectively in both developed and emerging markets.

Leveraging our latest OFDM platforms, the Motorola LTE portfolio offers a smooth migration for both 3GPP and 3GPP2 operators. Motorola’s LTE solution provides operators with a reliable and leading edge end-to-end solution for their next generation mobile broadband networks.

What is LTE?

LTE is the next generation network technology for 3GPP (GSM/EDGE and UMTS/HSPA) and 3GPP2 (CDMA and EV-DO) operators. LTE is comprised of two main elements; the EUTRAN (Evolved UMTS Radio Access Network) and the EPC (Evolved Packet Core).
LTE Standards are scheduled to be finalized by the end of 2008 with the first commercial deployments expected to take place in late 2009 or early 2010.

Motorola's extensive expertise in mobile broadband innovation including OFDM technologies and collapsed IP architecture and our commitment to Media Mobility is illustrated through our status as the #1 contributor to the standards development for LTE for RAN 1 & 2 and our extensive global LTE trial activities.

With expected data rates in excess of 160Mbps and very low latency, LTE will provide significant improvements to the user experience. LTE's Evolved Packet Core is IP centric and technology agnostic, will allow operators to provide common applications and services across other fixed and wireless access technologies. LTE, with its added capacity and simplified architecture will deliver cost effective voice and data services and will also benefit from high levels of spectrum flexibility, making it very well suited for deployments by operators in both developed and emerging markets.
