3GPP LTE (Long Term Evolution) is a standard within the Third Generation Partnership Project to further evolve the UMTS mobile phone standard to cope with future requirements. Moving to LTE includes increasing efficiency, lowering costs, improving services, use of new spectrum opportunities, and having a better integration with other open standards. LTE is not yet fully standardised, but it will result in the new evolved release 8 of the UMTS standard in the near future.
The SORBAS 3GPP LTE Test-UE is designed for testing evolving LTE mobile communications infrastructure and networks. It has the capabilities of a 3GPP LTE mobile terminal, with additional advanced test interfaces and features, making it an ideal tool for network infrastructure equipment developers and operators.
