Upgrading a mobile network: From 3G to WOC or LTE 2.6

The throughputs and capacities guaranteed by the 3rd generation systems are less than the ones requested by the mobile users. The LTE networks provide greater capacities and data rates but it is forecasted that these features will not be sufficient in the next few years. In this paper we proposed a revolutionary 5th generation communication system capable of 1Gbps data links. We present the architecture, basic parameters and system features and also a detailed comparison for coverage between LTE 2.6 and WOC systems.
