2.5G TDMA (GPRS) 00’s

- PS data transfer ~ 50 kbit/s
2.75G TDMA (GPRS+EDGE) 00’s

- PS data ~ 150kbit/s
3-3.5G WCDMA (UMTS) and CDMA 2000 00’s

- PS & CS data transfer ~ 14-42 Mbit/s (HSPA/HSPA+), Voice, SMS
3.9G OFDMA (LTE/SAE) 10’s

LTE – Targets
High data rates
– Downlink: >100 Mbps
– Uplink: >50 Mbps
– Cell-edge data rates 2-3 x HSPA Rel. 6 (@ 2006)
Low delay/latency
– User plane RTT: < 10 ms RAN RTT (fewer nodes, shorter TTI)
– Channel set-up: < 100 ms idle-to-active (fewer nodes, shorter messages, quicker node
resp.)
High spectral efficiency
– Targeting 3 X HSPA Rel. 6 (@ 2006 )
Spectrum flexibility
– Operation in a wide-range of spectrum allocations, new and existing
– Wide range of Bandwidth: 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20 MHz, FDD and TDD
Simplicity – Less signaling, Auto Configuration e-NodeB
– ”PnP”, ”Simple as an Apple”
Cost-effective migration from current/future 3G systems
State-of-the-art towards 4G
Focus on services from the packet-switched domain
