In the latest version of "The Mother of All Network Benchmark Tests," Signals Research finds that AT&T's LTE network performs "markedly better" that Verizon's LTE network in early tests in several markets, while noting that LTE performance overall lags somewhat due to an immature ecosystem and lower-quality early LTE devices. "Once normalized for channel bandwidth and MIMO, not to mention taking into consideration network loading, the performance differences across all technologies were relatively modest in the downlink," notes the report. "In a few cases, DC-HSDPA outperformed LTE, even without making these adjustments and EV-DO Rev A outperformed HSPA+." The firm noted that LTE upstream speeds are where the technology tends to notably outperform predecessors.
