We have been attending the LTE World Summit, which takes place every late spring in Europe, for three years running. At each subsequent event the number of operators has increased and the hot topics have evolved from the theoretical – we think LTE works, but we aren’t sure – to the actual – here is how my commercial LTE network is performing. The 2011 event, which took place in Amsterdam, was no exception. Based on our active participation at the event and the meetings that we attended, we have come up with a list of this year’s hot topics, appropriately filtered to reflect the stuff that interests us the most. Key takeaways include VoLTE (or the lack thereof), 1800MHz for LTE, indoor solutions for LTE, device requirements, DC-HSDPA/HSPA+, vendor strengths, and TD-LTE.
