Comparison of Mobile Internet Access methods
Standard Family Primary Use Radio Tech Downlink (Mbps) Uplink (Mbps) Notes
802.16e WiMAX Mobile Internet SOFDMA 70 70 Quoted speeds only achievable at short range more practically 10Mbps symmetrical at 10Km with line of Sight. If Non line of sight the uplink speeds will be lower and the service will have a radius of around 2Km
HIPERMAN HIPERMAN Mobile Internet OFDM 56.9 56.9
WiBro WiBro Mobile Internet OFDM 50 50 Short range (<5km)
UMTS W-CDMA
HSDPA+HSUPA
UMTS/3GSM Mobile phone CDMA/FDD .384
3.6
.384
5.76
HSDPA downlink widely deployed. Roadmap shows HSDPA up to 28.8Mbps from the basestation . Users can expect downloads of 400 to 600Kbps but around 100Kbps uplink speeds.
UMTS-TDD UMTS/3GSM Mobile Internet CDMA/TDD 16 16 Reported speeds according to IPWireless
LTE UTMS UMTS/4GSM General 4G OFDM/MIMO (HSOPA) >100 >50 Still in development
1xRTT CDMA2000 Mobile phone CDMA 0.144 0.144 Obsoleted by EV-DO
EV-DO 1x Rev. 0
Rev. A
CDMA2000 Mobile phone CDMA/FDD 2.45
3.1
0.15
1.8
Proposed Rev. B improves downlink to nearly 5Mbps.

Notes: All speeds are theoretical maximums and will vary by a number of factors, including the distance from the tower and the ground speed (ie communications on a train may be slower than when standing still.) Usually the bandwidth is shared between several terminals.
