LTE is the Most Important Direction for the Telecoms Industry Says GSA
LONDON, September 27, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
The scale of interest and investment worldwide confirms LTE as being the
most important direction for the telecoms industry, according to Alan
Hadden, President of the GSA.
In a recent interview with Telecoms IQ

, Hadden explained, "LTE is the catalyst
for extending the benefits of broadband internet access to the mass market
in all regions, and will help to narrow the digital divide. LTE is the
fastest developing mobile communications technology ever and represents the
next user experience of mobile broadband by offering higher downlink and
uplink speeds, more capacity and, importantly, much lower latency."
Hadden continues, "The primary drive towards LTE from operators comes
from the need for more network capacity, performance management and improved
efficiencies to drive down the unit cost of delivering traffic."
There are an estimated 237 operators in 85 countries investing in LTE
with 174 network commitments, 63 pre-commitment trials and studies and more
than 26 commercial LTE deployments. Additionally, there are expected to be
93 LTE networks in service by the end of 2012 (source: GSA).
Telecoms IQ's LTE Deployment Strategies conference (
http://www.ltedeploymentstrategies.com), to be held in London 8th - 11th
November 2011, will provide insight into the issues operators face when
migrating to LTE.
The conference will showcase how operators are justifying the business
case for deploying LTE networks today and how they are overcoming the
challenges of deploying an LTE network that delivers the best ROI.

- Kerstin Guenther, Senior Vice President, Mobile and Fixed
Network Affairs, Deutsche Telekom
