Tire speed rating tells you the maximum service speed for a tire. A speed rating isn't, however, a recommendation to exceed speed limits, and doesn't indicate how well a tire handles or corners. The speed rating tells you the maximum speed capability of the tire when properly inflated.
LTE (telecommunication) Long-term evolution redirects here. For the biological concept, see Evolution and E. coli long-term evolution experiment. In telecommunication, Long-Term Evolution (LTE) is a standard for high-speed wireless communication for mobile phones and data terminals, based on the GSM/EDGE and UMTS/HSPA technologies. It increases the capacity and speed using a different radio interface together with core network improvements.
Long-Term Evolution. A wireless mobile radio technology designed to succeed 3G WCDMA/HSDPA/HSUPA (and also CDMA) technology. Its primary feature for users is faster data, although it also improves the efficiency and capacity of wireless networks. Although LTE is not the name of the standard itself, it is often used that way. The actual standard is called 3GPP Release 8 (or greater). LTE is considered by many to be a 4G technology, both because it is faster than 3G, and because it uses an all-IP architecture where everything (including voice) is handled as data, similar to the Internet. See: 4G The first version of LTE to be widely deployed was LTE Category 3. It supports download data rates of up to 100 Mbps.
