If you didn’t look you might have missed it. If the letters LTE just passed your field of vision at CTIA you might have missed the next evolution in wireless technology. LTE or Long Term Evolution is being positioned as the successor to 3G.
Technically speaking, LTE is a modulation technique that is the latest variation of Global Systems for Mobile Communications (GSM) technology. It was dubbed “Long Term Evolution†because it is viewed as the natural progression of High-Speed Packet Access (HSPA), the GSM technology that is currently used by carriers such as AT&T to deliver 3G mobile broadband.
