70 Mbps LTE trials successful
Motorola today announced successful completion of its joint Over-the-Air (OTA) trial with operators as part of the collaborative Time Division Duplex Long-Term Evolution (TD-LTE) commercialisation.
According to Motorola it is the first company to complete download throughput up to 70 megabits per second (Mbps) in a 20 megahertz (MHz) bandwidth channel. It further achieved mobility and hand-over with live applications and multi-User Equipment (UE) testing under one sector. All trial results have been submitted to the LTE/System Architecture Evolution (SAE) Trial Initiative (LSTI).
“Motorola is committed to broadband and 4G developments, and supports both TD-LTE and Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) LTE. We’ve made significant progress in TD-LTE commercialisation as demonstrated by these trials,” said Dr. Mohammad Akhtar, vice president and general manager, Home and Networks Mobility, Motorola China.
“The development milestone we’re announcing today shows that Motorola remains on track to come to market early with field-proven, end-to-end LTE solutions to support TDD and FDD deployments. It represents our latest efforts to fulfill Motorola’s commitment to support operators around the world in delivering true media mobility experiences to consumers at home and on the go.”
Motorola’s says that its success in these trials and competency in TD-LTE has been built upon its commercialised Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) solutions and a number of LTE successes.
Equipment involved in these trials is based on Motorola’s second-generation OFDM products including Motorola’s Base Band Unit (BBU) that supports TD-LTE, FDD-LTE and WiMAX, and features a Remote Radio Unit (RRU) that supports 2×2 Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO).
