Chapter 4Changing Technologies
The technology trend is shifting toward providing faster data rates and lower latency connectivity (see the Figure 4.1), the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) “standards body” has developed a series of enhancements to create the “High-Speed Packet Access [HSPA] Evolution,” also referred to as “HSPA+.” The HSPA Evolution represents a logical development of the Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) approach and is the stepping stone to an entirely new 3GPP radio platform called 3GPP Long-Term Evolution (LTE). LTE offers several distinct advantages such as increased performance attribute(s), high peak data rates, low latency, and greater efficiencies in using the wireless ...
