Long Term Evolution a 4G
technology
⇒ What is LTE? Key driving factors behind 4G technology. LTE (Long Term Evolution) is a
fourth generation
(4G) standard for broadband mobile technology. This standard is developed to meet long term future requirements of higher data rates
, lower latency, better cell coverage and seamless handover.⇒ Seamless mobility in 4G. All IP is a unified network core for wireless operators to handle both voice and data. If the approach of
unified core
of all IP is adopted across majority of carriers globally, then mobility will become seamless.⇒ Evolved Packet Core (EPC) system architecture for all IP.
LTE is all- IP advanced core architecture proposed in
LTE is all-
release 8
of 3GPP to only process packets. The core is named as Evolved Packet Core (EPC).
