L&T Infotech introduces LTE UE Stack

L&T Infotech has announced the availability of its 3GPP release LTE (Long Term Evolution) UE (User Equipment) protocol stack , helping to reduce time—to-market of LTE terminal devices. The solution comprises Access Stratum and Non Access Stratum (NAS) layers as defined by 3GPP standards. L&T Infotech's LTE UE stack is compliant to March '09 3GPP Release 8, LTE specifications. The design is modular to accommodate further releases of the Release 8 Standard. The data plane (MAC, RLC and PDCP) is extensively tested for all 8 Data Radio Bearers (DRBs) at UE simultaneously, with both Tx and Rx path configurations for various combinations of UM and AM mode. The Control Plane (RRC and NAS) supports L2/L1 configurations, bearer establishment, cell selection and mobility procedures. "L&T Infotech believes that LTE is the clear evolutionary path for existing technologies of 3GPP origin and also for 3GPP2, CDMA technology for meeting the IMT-Advanced requirements. Hence, L&T Infotech is committed to provide products and solutions to reduce time-to-market of LTE devices to operators, OEMs and chipset manufacturers,” said Sudip Banerjee, Chief Executive Officer, L&T Infotech.
