What is the difference between LTE Home Internet and FIOS?

Basically, since LTE has been designed to operate in licensed bands, the centralized scheduling performed by LTE eNodeBs saturates all the channel resources, while Wi-Fi stations refrain from transmitting if the channel is sensed busy.


Simulation results show that LTE system performance is slightly affected by coexistence whereas Wi-Fi is significantly impacted by LTE transmissions.


obtained for that model demonstrate the fact that WiFi is significantly degraded by a nearby LTE system, while LTE degradation is minimal as long as the WiFi system is within carrier sense range.


However, the proposed standard may cause coexistence issues between LTE and Wi-Fi, especially in the case that the latter does not use frame aggregation.


LTE-Advanced (also known as LTE Release 10) significantly enhances the existing LTE Release 8 and supports much higher peak rates, higher throughput and coverage, and lower latencies, resulting in a better user experience.


It is further revealed that the initial backoff window size tuning of LTE-LAA could be a preferable option for achieving fairness between LTE-LAA and WiFi in practical scenarios as it requires less system information and achieves better precision.


The experimental result shows that our proposed LTE-WiFi aggregated system gives better performance and provides high bandwidth as compared to single LTE.


For those scenarios where the gateway itself does not have a wired Internet connection, LTE is a candidate solution due to its high spectral efficiency, bandwidth, and coverage.


Then, Wi-Fi operation is severely affected when in coexistence with LTE.


The licensed-assisted access-based long term evolution (LAA-LTE) is a promising solution to provide enhanced LTE services by sharing unlicensed bands with WiFi systems.
