Four leading operators which together represent more than 200 million mobile subscribers – Verizon, Telstra, kt and EE have joined hands to form the LTE-Broadcast Alliance to push for global support for LTE-Broadcast (LTE-B) services from all device makers.
LTE-B, also known as evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (eMBMS), enables a mobile operator to send a single stream of data to all mobile users in one area, as opposed to sending an individual stream to each user.
