4G vs. LTE: "Culture clash" 07-17-08 \| The Economist [Rob, in your opinion, is it even wise to assume that there will even be a discernible difference between the two, with time?] As “third generation” (3G) networks proliferate, the focus shifts to 4G WHAT would the technology industry be without standards wars? Like a city without sex, some might argue. But not all fights are winner-take-all battles like the one between VHS and Betamax in videotapes, or Blu-ray and HD DVD in high-definition video discs. Sometimes there need not be a loser, and the din of battle may drown out the real issues—as in the fight between WiMAX and LTE. These are the main contenders for the next generation of wireless networks, known as “fourth generation” (4G) networks. Many equipment-makers are already working on 4G technology, even though consumers in many countries have yet to experience the 3G sort. And hardly a week passes without news from the battlefront. This week ELRO, a Danish utility, awarded a contract for a nationwide WiMAX network in Denmark; and Verizon Wireless, an American operator, said it would launch an LTE network in 2010.
