1.4Gbps 4G mobile call
Nokia Siemens Networks achieved data speeds exceeding 1.4Gbps using an LTE-Advanced (4G) system on 100MHz of aggregated spectrum.
The company said today (27 February 2012) in a press statement that the calls, involving huge file transfers and HD video streaming, hit peaks of 1.429 Gigabits-per-second.
“Although not aiming to replicate the feat in Barcelona, the breakthrough supports the company’s claim to being the mobile broadband specialist at Mobile World Congress 2012,” Nokia Siemens Networks said in a press statement.
“Taking advanced technologies – such as LTE-Advanced – to a higher level is hugely satisfying. This work shows the potential for operators moving to LTE and beyond to deliver ubiquitous mobile broadband that truly delights people,” said Marc Rouanne, the company’s head of network systems.
“Today’s 4G world record and everything we do at the event underscores our focus on leadership in mobile broadband.”
