White Paper December 2008 Mobile LTE Network design with ICS telecom Software solutions in radiocommunications Abstract Currently, UMTS networks worldwide are being upgraded to High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) in order to increase data rate and capacity for downlink packet data. In the next step, High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) will boost uplink performance in UMTS networks. However, in order to ensure the competitiveness of UMTS for the next 10 years and beyond, concepts for UMTS Long Term Evolution (LTE) have been investigated. The objective is a high- data-rate, low-latency and packet optimized radio access technology. This white paper describes the main features of the LTE concept and how these features can easily be handled by ICS telecom. Today, the ICS telecom software is able to provide a full solution for the LTE network design as well as for the coverage simulations, interference and traffic analysis and regarding the MBMS (Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Services) network management.
