March 23, 2010 - Detailed Research Demonstrates That Femtocells Improve the Operator Business Case for LTE & WiMAX Networks While Also Significantly Improving the User Experience and the Range

Philippines operator Globe Telecom is continuously upgrading its network and expanding its LTE TDD and LTE-FDD footprint to further strengthen mobile data infrastructure and deliver faster and more reliable wireless internet connectivity.

Huawei has commercially launched its E398 modem, the triple-mode LTE modem that supports LTE, 3G, and 2G network access.

Huawei today announced the launch of FusionNet, a new generation of network architecture for LTE-B, and next-generation SingleEPC solution at the 2013 Mobile World Congress (MWC). According to company, LTE-B architecture improves Cell Edge User (CEU) throughput by at least 500% with a series of multi-RAT

U.S. mobile operator Sprint has announced improved 3G and all-new 4G LTE network, which now includes Sprint Spark, in Chicago. According to sprint, the company undertook a massive initiative to “rip and replace” equipment from its 38,000 cell sites across the country.

Cellular base station architectures are shifting from traditional macrocells to distributed base stations and toward the growing use of small cell base stations. Number of LTE small cells shipments will surpass the number of LTE macrocells as early as 2014, predicts ABI Research. Company estimates that  127,000 LTE small cells would be sold against 113,000 by 2014.
