Warda Ahmed, Sidra Anwar, M. Junaid Arshad · 2016
Mobile wireless communication is improving and getting mature day by day. Due to this, we need the improvement of high broadband wireless technologies. The 3GPP which means that 3 rd Generation partnership project is a standard which is developing System Architecture Evolution (SAE)/Long Term Evolution (LTE) architecture for the succeeding mobile communication systems. Many organizations are working to shift 3GPP LTE to LTE-Advanced network, leading to 4 th generation (4G) mobile networks. The present study conducted a literature review on security architectures of 3 rd Generation partnership project (3GPP), Long Term Evolution (LTE) and Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) networks. As well as their network security issues are also studied.
