LTE subscribers to hit 90 million this year, 1 billion in 2017

GSM and CDMA took more than a decade to grow to where they are now, but LTE will expand much faster, and it’s expected to have 90 million people using the 4G standard by the end of this year and 1 billion by 2017, according to Strategy Analytics. This will make 4G LTE the fastest adopted wireless technology so far.
“LTE is one of the key tools to deliver this improvement, with the early volume in LTE devices an encouraging sign for operators looking to maximize return on their LTE investments,” Rudd said.
