Introduction to LTE

Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the standard for wireless broadband communication for mobile devices and data terminals.

Key Features

  • OFDMA: Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access for the downlink.
  • SC-FDMA: Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access for the uplink.
  • MIMO: Multiple Input Multiple Output antenna technology.

Stay tuned for more deep dives into LTE architecture!
