LTE Explained

LTE Explained Course

LTE Explained is a two day introductory LTE training course. The training explains the evolution of LTE from the 3G and 3.5G networks through the Long Term Evolution, LTE technology standard.

The standards for LTE along with the associated System Architecture Evolution standards are being defined by the Third Generation Partnership Project, 3GPP. These provide an evolutionary route for UMTS network operators from 3G to 4G, fourth generation mobile networks.

The LTE Explained training course briefly reviews the technology roadmap from 2G through to 3.5G technologies and then explores the LTE technology and the corresponding core network evolution to explain how these technologies will enhance telecommunications services and applications.

A global outlook is provided by an analysis of the 3GPP2 standards family as well as an overview of WiMAX standards and their possible role in the future landscape of mobile services.
