If Long Term Evolution (LTE) goals are to be believed, then network equipment vendors and service providers will be seeing improved spectral efficiency, lowered costs, offering increased applications, and integrating with more open standards. While some vendors say that they expect to have their LTE rollouts ready as early as the end of 2009, most believe it will not happen until early 2010.
Once the LTE project is complete, mobile phone handsets and other mobile devices will be able to download data almost ten times faster than what is currently available. Since more mobile users are downloading video, TV, and other high-bandwidth data onto their phones, it is no surprise that the world’s biggest mobile phone vendors, network equipment manufacturers, and carriers have agreed to adhere to the LTE-based fourth-generation technology.
