The document discusses LTE in unlicensed spectrum and its relationship with Wi-Fi. It notes the massive shift to wireless traffic driven mostly by Wi-Fi. It also discusses why mobile operators are interested in unlicensed spectrum to overcome limitations of licensed spectrum. The document summarizes several simulations that have been done on the performance of LTE unlicensed versus Wi-Fi. It finds that LTE unlicensed generally has better spectral efficiency while Wi-Fi performance may be better under lighter traffic loads. Combining LTE unlicensed and Wi-Fi can provide higher overall capacity than Wi-Fi alone.
