Introduction
In November 2004 3GPP began a project to define the long-term evolution of UMTS cellular technology. Related pecifications are formally known as the evolved UMTS terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) and evolved UMTS terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN). First version is documented in Release 8 of the 3GPP specifications. Commercial deployment not expectedbefore 2010, but there are currently many field trials.

Introduction
LTE Targets
Higher performance
100 Mbit/s peak downlink, 50 Mbit/s peak uplink
1G for LTE Advanced Faster cell edge performance Reduced latency (to 10 ms) for better user experience Scalable bandwidth up to 20 MHz
Backwards compatible
Works with GSM/EDGE/UMTS systems Utilizes existing 2G and 3G spectrumand new spectrum Supports hand-over and roaming to existing mobile networks
Reduced capex/opex via simple architecture
reuse of existing sites and multi-vendor sourcing
Wide application
TDD (unpaired) and FDD (paired) spectrum modes Mobility up to 350kph Large range of terminals (phones and PCs to cameras)

LTE Architecture
LTE encompasses the evolution of:
the radio access through theE-UTRAN the non-radio aspects under the term System Architecture Evolution (SAE)
Entire system composed of both LTE and SAE is called the Evolved Packet System (EPS) At a high-level, the network is comprised of:
Core Network (CN), called Evolved Packet Core (EPC) in SAE access network (E-UTRAN)
A bearer is an IP packet flow with a defined QoS between the gateway and the User Terminal (UE) CN isresponsible for overall control of UE and establishment of the bearers

Main logical nodes in EPC are:
PDN Gateway (P-GW) Serving Gateway (S-GW) MobilityManagement Entity (MME)
EPC also includes other nodes and functions, such:
Home Subscriber Server (HSS) Policy Control and Charging Rules Function (PCRF)
EPS only provides a bearer path of a certain QoS, control of multimedia applications is provided by the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), which considered outside of EPS E-UTRAN solely contains the evolved base stations, called eNodeB or...
