LTE is just LTE (1 band being used). LTE+ is LTE with Carrier Aggregation which basically means it is using multiple LTE bands at the same time which increases speeds.

Easier explanation is the old highway analogy. LTE means you are using a 1 lane highway whereas LTE+ means you are using the freeway with 3-4 lanes at once to have traffic go across .
