Boosting Upload Speeds from Smartphones to Networks
Uploading 4K video from a smartphones is the next frontier but what's slowing down the revolution? Digital signal processing expert Will Strauss explains likely fixes.
As smartphone users, we are used to watching news videos, downloading apps and games and viewing YouTube clips every day. However, we are increasingly sending our own videos to YouTube, and the company says that 300 hours of video is now uploaded every minute.

With powerful 12 MP+ cameras with 4K video now becoming the norm, our networks have to accommodate drastically increasing upload traffic.
There are three ways to increase LTE upload speeds.
