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
