Correct Answer Neither 1 nor 2
The correct answer is Neither 1 nor 2.
- LTE or Long Term Evolution is a series of 4G network standards that were agreed in 2008. Hence Statement 1 is Not Correct.
- LTE improved on the radio technology of 3G’s WCDMA and introduced OFDM or Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing.
- ITU (The International Telecommunication Union) recognises the lack of clarity in the term 4G and has determined LTE - Advanced and WirelessMAN-Advanced or WiMax 2 as “True” 4G.
- VoLTE is a technology update to the LTE protocol used by mobile phone networks.
- Under LTE, the infrastructure of telecom players only allows transmission of data while voice calls are routed to their older 2G or 3G networks.
- VoLTE is both data and voice technology. Hence Statement 2 is also Not Correct.
- Basically VoLTE systems convert voice into the data stream, which is then transmitted using the data connection.
