Will LTE Device Performance Measure Up? What you should know before deploying LTE devices

Spirent’s Mike Keeley has been working closely with many of the early LTE market leaders. In this webinar he shares some insights and “lessons learned” on what you need to know before you deploy LTE devices.

In the webinar, Mike addresses:

• RF – will device performance measure up to the challenges of deployments in new spectrum bands?
• MIMO – will practical implementations deliver on the technology’s performance promise?
• Multi-Mode System Selection – how will devices handle simultaneous LTE, GSM, UMTS (and in some markets CDMA/EV-DO/eHRPD) networks?
• Data – what kind of data rates will LTE devices actually deliver under real-world conditions?
• Inter-RAT – will handovers between LTE and legacy Radio Access Technology (RAT) networks really appear seamless to a user?

More about LTE Deployment and Testing

What’s “beneath the surface” can hurt you during LTE deployment. There’s no question that LTE makes use of substantially different techniques and technologies in every element of its implementation. It’s also the case that some of the most important technical considerations are not very obvious.

Since many were not critical during 2G and 3G deployments, they are sometimes overlooked in planning for LTE. These hidden dangers can cause serious damage - unless you know what to look for and how to find it.
