Interoperability Benefit #2
Interoperability will allow a greater number of carriers to make the leap to the next “G” and deploy 4G LTE wireless service, the most efficient wireless air interface in use in the market today. Using 700 MHz band holdings as a foundation for 4G LTE service, carriers will be able to upgrade their device offerings to customers to the latest technology and transition customers to newer devices over time. With an established LTE network, these carriers can more easily work to “re-farm” other spectrum holdings to LTE technology – enabling a carrier to make a more efficient use of their entire spectrum portfolio.
