Backhaul Strategies for LTE 2010-2015 Report
Published on September 2010
Report Summary
The radical increase in demand for rich media content and bandwidth hungry applications has been the main driver in the
development of a high capacity, low latency mobile broadband system such as LTE. Coupled with the ever increasing capabilities of
new smartphone models the mobile broadband user of the next five years will become an extremely demanding consumer. Backhaul
systems need to devise new ways of transporting these volumes of data traffic for the overall networks to see any real-world benefit of
the increased LTE speeds into base stations and edge networks.
Visiongain's latest report on the global LTE Backhaul market analyses the worldwide consumer market by geographical region,
outlines the current technological advancements and offers predictions on future developments. The report interprets the commercial
implications of variations in the backhaul model across all critical world markets, outlining the major themes followed by both
incumbent and incoming operators.
This report contains all the important data required to succeed in the LTE backhaul market
