2. Agenda Introduction Performance targets for LTE-Advanced
LTE-Advanced technology components
Outlook
Conclusion

3. Wireless evolution 1990–2011

4. Performance targets for LTE-Advanced and IMT-Advanced

5. LTE-Advanced technology components
Carrier aggregation
Improved MIMO schemes
Coordinated multiple point transmission and reception
Relaying
Local area optimization features

6. Carrier aggregation
LTE-Advanced maximum bandwidth in contiguous deployment

7. Carrier aggregation
LTE-Advanced non-contiguous spectrum deployment

8. Improved MIMO schemes

9. Coordinated multiple point transmission and reception

10. Relaying

11. Local area optimization features
Support for heterogeneous networks
LTE self-optimizing networks

12. Gigabit/s is real Ericsson - 900+ Mbps
60 MHz of aggregated bandwidth
Ericsson's commercial base station RBS 6000
Nokia Siemens Networks Gbps
100 MHz of aggregated bandwidth
NSN’s commercial Flexi Multiradio 10 Base Station

13. LTE-A – is not revolution, it is evolution
Users should not expect 1 Gbps speeds on their phones next year
Operators do not have 100 MHz of spectrum
No way to use 8 antennas in UE devices

14. Where to use Cars or Trains DSL in rural areas with LTE-Advanced
Improve efficiency wireless connections
Decrease of costs

15. Conclusion
