At this week’s CTIA in Las Vegas, NVIDIA is showcasing its Tegra 4i mobile processor for mainstream smartphones with an integrated NVIDIA i500 LTE modem performing at 150 Mbps in the downlink.
Earlier this year at Mobile World Congress in February, the same demo was operating at 100 Mbps. The performance boost is achieved with a software update for NVIDIA’s software-defined radio technology.
Tegra 4i’s modem is also multi-mode — it delivers 4G LTE Advanced and is backward compatible with LTE Cat 3, 3G, and 2G.
