Maybe it already does? They say capacity is allocated proportional to sustained rate when there's contention....do they mean "capacity" in bps or "capacity" in time slots. I'm thinking it's the latter because I have observed that if you improve the data rate of an individual SM he'll get more, which makes sense if the SM's capacity allotment is measured in timeslots rather than bits.

Where's Aaron Schneider when you need him?

LTE can be set for equal time or equal rate. Equal rate will drag down the 
thruput of all users.

Equal time will only impact the user with a poor signal. If everyones signal is 
great and one users radio signal is bad, that user only gets the thruput that 
can be crammed into his timeslot because his modulation is low. Everyone else 
continues as normal.

At least that is my understanding.

....any system with 20mhz channels + two chains + 256QAM can claim 100mbps.
Getting past that is going to be carrier aggregation (bigger channels) and 
MU-MIMO.

5x20mhz channels aggregated = 500mbps.

MU-MIMO can theoretically double capacity.  So there's your 1gig.
I'm not clear on how far you can count on MU-MIMO.  In theory it sounds 
promising.

....and yes, one person at MIMO-A QPSK is going eat up many times the capacity 
of a person at 256QAM MIMO-B no matter what wireless system you're using.  The 
best defense against that will be don't install bad connections.  Nothing new 
there.

If you're going to use 100mhz, you could of course install 5 AP's of your 
choice and claim you have a 500mbps system.

Hear talk of these 50 - 100+ mbps speeds per user and eventually 1
gbps.  How can LTE do that in 10 to 20 mhz of spectrum?  I assume if
you are offering 50 mbps package in a sector its safe to assume at
prime time there are going to be at the very least 10 people using it
in that sector at the same time?  Also assume some have less then
perfect connections to the tower using more air time.
