Abstract: Due to the advancement of telecommunication platform, users are now demanding new applications such as Online Gaming, mobile TV, Web 2.0, and to meet this requirement operators needed to design more flexible network. For the implementation of this network, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) started working on Long Term Evolution (LTE) and proposed a system which has larger bandwidths, low latency and packet optimized radio access technology. The answer to the bandwidth hungry wireless applications was LTE with its distinct access technology Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA).With OFDMA as the radio access Technology, LTE has very promising features, like bandwidth scalability and both FDD and TDD duplexing methods. The major challenge in LTE is offering a greater coverage by providing higher data rates over wider areas. The changes and contributions of LTE make sure that the users are able to request and use more mobile applications like interactive TV, mobile video blogging, advanced games or professional services. The transition of LTE i.e from the 3rd generation (3G) to the 4th generation (4G), has achieved great capacity and high speed of mobile telephone networks.
