‒ 150 MB per month (up from 55 MB per month in 2010)
‒ average smartphone will generate 2.6 GB of traffic per month in 2016 (17x 2011)

6. LTE Is Significant Step Forward
• LTE provides 2 to 5 times greater spectral
efficiency than most advanced 3G networks
– Lower cost per bit
• Faster downloads
– Up to 100 Mbit/s initially
– Better user experience
• Reduced OPEX and CAPEX
– LTE base station cost <1/5 HSPA cost per user per
month (based on 10 Gbit/s per month)
– Energy efficient

7. LTE Market Rollout
• 592 Million LTE Subscriptions by 2016 (Source: Pyramid Research)
• 4G LTE Revenues Projected to Exceed $265 Billion
Globally in 2016 (Source: Juniper Research)
• 417 LTE Devices Announced (Source:GSA)
– From 67 companies
• 89 LTE operators have now launched commercial
services in 45 countries (Source:GSA)
– 80 FDD, 9 TDD
– Additional 61 expected to start
services during 2012
