Motorola will carry groundbreaking Long Term Evolution (LTE) work.

Samsung Electronics is expanding its portfolio of silicon for cellphones at a time when its handset division is tapping a broader set of chip vendors. Specifically, the company is working on basebands for both Long Term Evolution (LTE) and mobile WiMax networks as well as media accelerators. The company is developing WiMax and LTE chips to lower costs of its handsets and reduce its exposure to pat...

Samsung Electronics is expanding its portfolio of silicon for cellphones with basebands for Long Term Evolution and WiMax and media accelerators at a time when its handset division is tapping a broader set of chip vendors.

Motorola, beset by bad news this year, said today it will expand Long Term Evolution (LTE), WiMAX and Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) deployments in 2009. Motorola’s LTE unite says it was the first company to demonstrate handoff between CDMA EV-DO Rev-A and LTE technologies in a with VoIP calls and streaming video. Motorola’s handoff demonstrate how

NTT DOCOMO, INC. announced it has successfully developed a trial large-scale-integration (LSI) chip that consumes less than 0.04 W of power yet supports multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)* signal detection and decoding for downlink transmissions at 100 Mbps, the speed required for the forthcoming mobile system known as Super 3G**, or Long Term Evolution (LTE), approved by

LTE (Long Term Evolution) was supposed to significantly lag behind WiMAX, but the technology gained significant momentum in 2008. The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has completed the majority of specifications for standardization of LTE next-generation technology, meaning the full Release 8 standard is on track for completion by March. And a number of operators, including Ve...

While we're still all dreaming of the joy that will be LTE, the Long Term part of Long Term Evolution is still weighing pretty heavily on us. AT&T's Mark Siegel went on record saying that AT&T is currently testing -- unlike Rogers completed rollout in Canada -- some 7.2 Mbps speeds in Chicago that may eventually speed up to 14.4 Mbps. Sadly, there's no mention if thi...

AT&T Mobility is in no hurry to transition to Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology. In response to accelerated next-generation rollout schedules by Sprint Nextel Corp.

The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has "frozen" the development of Long Term Evolution as part of Release 8. This means the LTE standard is essentially set, and the 3GPP will ratify the final version in March 2009. This ...

Japan largest operator, NTT DoCoMo, announced that its side successfully inventing a trial Large-Scale-Integration (LSI) chip that consumes only 0.04 W or less power for Long Term Evolution (LTE), the next generation network. It is two weeks after the rival, KDDI, revealing its intention of using LTE for its future network. The chip supports multiple-input multiple-output ...
