Private long-term evolution (LTE) refers to a cellular network system that provides individual network services independent of any carrier. It includes hardware, mobile core software, subscriber identification module (SIM) cards and network orchestration software that can be configured to support the specific requirements of an individual or an enterprise. Private LTE utilizes localized micro towers and small cells to provide enhanced connectivity, modify applications and reduce latency in the network. In comparison to public LTE, private LTE runs on its dedicated equipment and offers independent coverage, security, and performance. As a result, private LTE finds extensive applications across various industries, such as education, healthcare, manufacturing, oil and gas, energy and utility, retail and e-commerce, information technology (IT) and telecommunication.
