These days a lot is heard about LTE or WiMAX, but not many people can tell their actual difference. Apart from being a 4G technology, what else do you know about LTE or WiMAX?
4G platforms is the latest battlefield for the top telecommunication companies as you can witness it through their attractive packages and offers. Both Verizon and Sprint are selling 4G but, why do they call it as LTE or WiMAX? Well, the answer is too descriptive but I have simplified it for you...
The first fact to be noted is that they are the strongest rivals and secondly they are nowhere related to each other. The recent launch of LTE is the latest standard in the GSM family, just after the evolutionary EDGE, UMTS, HSPA (combined HSDPA and HSUPA) and HSPA Evolution (HSPA+). WiMAX is the popular telecommunication protocol that was launched with many revisions from time to time over the years.
