[1] LTE
Long-Term Evolution. The name for the wireless communications standard devised by members of 3GPP, including Fujitsu and NTT DOCOMO.
[2] 4x4 MIMO
Multiple-input, multiple-output. MIMO, a core technology underlying LTE, is a spatial multiplexing technology that uses multiple antennas transmitting/receiving different signals on the same frequency. The 4x4 MIMO which employs four antennae at both the transmitting base stations and receiving mobile station, can dramatically increase wireless communications speeds without increasing frequency width.
[3] 3GPP
3rd Generation Partnership Project. The partnership project that produced the detailed specification for IMT-2000 W-CDMA. Standards-setting organizations from around the world developed a common standard to be used in all nations and regions in the form of the standard developed under 3GPP. Includes many companies and organizations as members, including the world's leading mobile carriers.
[4] Pre-coding MIMO
The MIMO transmission method adopted as a standard by 3GPP. A technology where the receiving handset sends feedback regarding its reception characteristics to the wireless base station to optimize MIMO transmissions.
