LTE UE Guide

The internal architecture of the user equipment for LTE is identical to the one used by UMTS and GSM which is actually a Mobile Equipment (ME). The mobile equipment comprised of the following important modules:
  • Mobile Termination (MT): This handles all the communication functions.
  • Terminal Equipment (TE): This terminates the data streams.
  • Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC): This is also known as the SIM card for LTE equipments. It runs an application known as the Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM).
A USIM stores user-specific data very similar to 3G SIM card. This keeps information about the user's phone number, home network identity and security keys etc.
