Applications

3GPP - UMTS - LTE

The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is a collaborative effort among telecommunications associations to make globally applicable third generation (3G) and more recently fourth generation (4G) mobile phone system specifications. 3GPP specifications are based on the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) specification.

The groups leading the standardization of 3GPP are the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), the Association of Japanese Radio Industries and Businesses/Telecommunication Technology Committee (ARIB/TTC), the China Communications Standards Association, the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions (North America) and Telecommunications Technology Association (South Korea).

Another term commonly seen is 3GPP/LTE. LTE stands for Long Term Evolution and it is the name given to a project within the 3GPP to improve the universal mobile telecommunications standard (UMTS). The LTE project resulted in Release 8 of the UMTS standard, including extensions and modifications of the UMTS system. LTE Advanced is a more recent project that addresses the 4G technology requirements, such as increased data rates and reduced latency.
