Let's see 4G LTE releases over the years...
• Release 8 (2008): Introduced base LTE capabilities, including high peak data rates (up to 300 Mbps downlink, 75 Mbps uplink), improved spectral efficiency, flexible bandwidth options, and lower latency compared to 3G.
• Release 9 (2011): Enhanced aspects of Release 8, such as carrier aggregation (combining multiple frequency bands for increased bandwidth), improved handover (switching between cell towers), and support for multicast/broadcast services.
• Release 10 (2011): Introduced LTE Advanced, marking a significant step forward. It brought features like wider bandwidth support, further carrier aggregation enhancements, and MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) antenna technology for increased capacity and efficiency.
• Release 11 (2013): Continued improvements on LTE Advanced, focusing on enhanced interoperability with Wi-Fi, power saving features, and self-organizing network (SON) functionalities for network optimization.
• Release 12 (2014): Furthered LTE Advanced capabilities, including support for Voice over LTE (VoLTE) calls, machine-type communication (MTC) for low-power devices, and coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission for improved coverage and capacity.
