With the commercial introduction of LTE TDD service, LG will build upon its expertise in 4G LTE by offering future device options utilizing this standard."

Benefits of LTE TDD

LTE TDD is designed to let data be received and transmitted on the same frequency, which according to LG it performs more like home broadband with a narrow band for uploading data and a wider band for receiving data, making it more efficient.

Long Term Evolution Time Division Duplex (LTE TDD) is the version of LTE that uses the TDD modulation scheme in unpaired spectrum, whereby the same frequency channel is used for both downlink and uplink communication and signals are timed to enable smooth delivery of data. In contrast, LTE uses frequency division duplex (FDD) in paired spectrum, with a separate channel for uplinks and downloads.
