All mobile broadband standards supported by the chip meet 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) specifications.
This again all goes back to the 3GPP standard and how Intel has implemented it.
Samsung's LTE solution is fully compliant with the latest 3GPP LTE Rel-8 standard.
"We applaud 3GPP for rightly concluding the Band 23 question, " said Jeff Blum, DISH Senior Vice-President and Deputy General Counsel.

Samsung has proven its leadership in next generation mobile technology and has a long history of involvement in the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).
There seems to be a dispute between how many channels are included in the 3GPP specification and how many channels are discussed in the Samsung patent.
Compliant with all 3GPP specifications, the BCM21892 combines a full-featured cellular baseband with a world-band radio in a footprint that is approximately 35 percent smaller than current industry solutions.

The camera can take stills or even video, 3GPP video so you can email it off to your friends' computers, or even their GSM phones if you want to share the love.
Endorsed by the 3GPP as the official way to burn wireless rubber in the next few years, LTE is a progression of GSM's UMTS platform, making it an ironic choice for CDMA stalwart Verizon and a huge blow for the CDMA Development Group's competing UMB standard.
