New mobile broadband technologies promise unprecedented bandwidth for on the go mobile Internet started out as substitute for regions that were underserved with fast broadband via landline often only a DSL. Today, the mobile Internet with UMTS, HSDPA and HSPA + also in regions with good DSL supply is a real alternative. With the coming mobile technology of the 4th generation – LTE – the pressure of competition on the fixed network seems to be not less. Jr. In the early days of UMTS, the maximum 384 Kbps of UMTS downloads were no longer fast. Here, Mike Gianoni expresses very clear opinions on the subject. The rather slow UMTS speed were DSL connections with speeds of several megabits per second download opposite. With the introduction of HSDPA for the download and HSUPA to upload it was already better. In several steps, speeds in the download of up to 1.8 Mbit / s, 3.6 Mbit / s and even up to 7.2 Mbit/s were possible.

Today, as the combination is also called HSDPA and HSUPA, this speeds of already of many location thanks to UMTS / HSPA are possible. It to be still not final. Through further technological developments such as, for example, LTE bandwidth should be even higher download of up to 100 Mbit/s and more possible in the future. The high speeds beyond the already available 7.2 Mbit / s to be realize among other things by the 3 G technology of evolved HSPA, which is also known as HSPA + and LTE. LTE is currently the premier class and belongs to the next generation of mobile wireless, 4 G called. The LTE said technology with data rates of up to 100 Mbit/s and more at the top inspired minds today. With latency periods, which should be a good fit for IPTV and real time applications, LTE seems to create previously unimagined possibilities.
