4G Mobile Broadband Evolution: 3GPP Release 10 and Beyond - HSPA+ SAE/LTE and LTE-Advanced provides detailed discussions of Release 10, including the significant new technology enhancements to LTE/EPC (called LTE-Advanced) that were determined in October 2010 to have successfully met all of the criteria established by the International Telecommunication Union Radiotelecommunication Sector (ITU-R) for the first release of IMT-Advanced. IMT-Advanced, which includes LTE-Advanced, provides a global platform on which to build next generations of interactive mobile services that will provide faster data access, enhanced roaming capabilities, unified messaging and broadband multimedia. The paper also provides detailed information on the introduction of LTE-Advanced and the planning for Release 11 and beyond. Release 10 is expected to be finalized in March 2011, while work on Release 11 will continue through the fourth quarter of 2012.

Hi this shows one more steps towards 4G mobile broadband but i am trying to bring indian presoective here only 3G is available that also in selected cities,it might be posible that we can bring direct 4G or later version?
ReplyDeleteYes, I dont think this should be a problem.
ReplyDeleteOne advantage with the Indian operators is that they were quite late for 3G so their equipment should already be capable of just software upgrade to LTE/LTE-A. Ofcourse some hardware would need changing if the spectrum changes from 3G are big.
