With the considerable interest from the supporters of TD-SCDMA, a number of features to
make the mode of operation of TD-LTE more of an upgrade path for TD-SCDMA have been
incorporated. One example of this is the subframe structure that has been adopted within LTE
TDD / TD-LTE.
Summary
While both LTE TDD (TD-LTE) and LTE FDD will be widely used, it is anticipated that LTE
FDD will be the more widespread, although LTE TDD has a number of significant
advantages, especially in terms of higher spectrum efficiency that can be used by many
operators. It is also anticipated that phones will be able to operate using either the LTE FDD
or LTE-TDD (TD-LTE) modes. In this way the LTE UEs or user equipments will be dual
standard phones, and able to operate in countries regardless of the flavour of LTE that is used
- the main problem will then be the frequency bands that the phone can cover.
