LTE-TDD Network

The two basic ideas behind LTE-TDD are that more data comes in to a phone than goes out from a phone, and that transmissions to and from the phone should share the same frequency.

Samsung Electronics has been selected as one of the equipment and solution providers for the LTE-TDD network establishment project of Sprint, the third-largest mobile carrier in the United States. Sprint is planning to provide LTE-TDD services with its newly-procured 2.6GHz frequency band. As Samsung Electronics is selected to take part in the American LTE-TDD equipment market, the Korean market’s transition to LTE-TDD is expected to pick up some speed.

Samsung Electronics announced on October 31 that it will supply its base station equipment and solutions to Sprint from December this year, with Alcatel-Lucent and NSN. The three companies are scheduled to supply Light Radio solutions and antennae, cables, and engineering services for network establishment and the like, according to the LTE-TDD base station commercialization plan of Sprint. 

Back in 2010, Samsung Electronics provided Sprint with the Samsung MBS, which is a CDMA and LTE-FDD multi-mode base station. At this time, it reconfirmed its reputation as a leading LTE equipment supplier by winning the LTE-TDD network project.
