Heterogeneous Networks – White Paper Summary

Fostering a successful ecosystem for the deployment of LTE/SAE as the next generation mobile network (NGMN) and its related services is a major goal of the NGMN Alliance’s Ecosystem Working Group. As part of the working group’s findings it identified that one of the important areas for further investigation is that the deployment of NGMN is expected to be an evolution that will see NGMN being deployed alongside existing networks in the form of heterogeneous networks.
