Motorola, is set to unveil its latest innovation, the 3GPP device, to the media, which is aimed at providing long term evolution (LTE) standards, the company has announced.
According to a statement from Motorola, the LTE will provide users with personal media experience similar to that of fixed line broadband, both in terms of bandwidth and latency. This means applications delivered on fixed line can be available on air within a short space of time.
The newly introduced LTE standards are planned for completion by the end of this year.
According to the research carried out by Motorola, LTE will be combined through the use of Motorola advanced technology and expertise that includes chipset, network and video head-end solutions, and professional services.
The Motorola LTE ecosystem will enable true media mobility, delivering innovative applications to operators to increase revenue and gain a competitive advantage.
According to Motorola experts, the operators will be faced with having to make a decision on their next generation network upgrade; while HSPA+ may seem a natural and easy upgrade to support the growing demand on data services, it will require a significant investment to replace the legacy equipment and upgrade ancillaries. It will, however, bring only limited benefits compared to next-generation LTE.
LTE not only brings the realisation of true mobile broadband experience nearly anywhere, it also allows operators to introduce new exciting services, among them HD-video blogging, HD video on demand, media mobility, online gaming, and others, and brings a significantly improved business proposition (2.5 times capacity, lower cost per bit, spectrum flexibility, media mobility, flat IP architecture, and end-to-end QoS).
“Motorola is uniquely positioned in LTE thanks to our years of experience in OFDM and mobile broadband innovation. Our WiMAX leadership position and the common technical features with LTE give Motorola the ability to bring to market an early and field-tested LTE end-to-end solution – like our third generation OFDM broadband platform that is common to WiMAX and LTE.
“Motorola’s LTE solution is comprised of the common wireless broadband platform and a selection of radio options that include MIMO and smart antennas. The portfolio includes frame based-mounted radios, remote radio heads and tower top radios to support a wide variety of LTE deployment scenarios across newly available spectrum as well as existing GSM and CDMA spectrum,” reads a statement made available to ITNewsAfrica.com on Thursday.
Motorola’s leadership in LTE is demonstrated by its position in LTE RAN standard contribution, LTE trial activity with leading operators, and membership in the LTE/System Architecture Evolution (SAE) Trial Initiative (LSTI)
