Huawei Introduces Beyond LTE Technology For 30 Gbps

Shenzhen, China, March 20, 2012: Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, recently introduced its Beyond LTE technology, which significantly increases peak rates to 30Gbps - over 20 times faster than existing commercial LTE networks.

Mobile networks are developing at an unprecedented rate, said David Wang, president of Huaweis Wireless Network Business Unit. Future technologies will bring revolutionary advances in network evolutionhigher spectrum efficiency, wider spectrum aggregation, and faster access rates. Our Beyond LTE technology signifies the future of mobile broadband. Huaweis Beyond LTE technology achieves key breakthroughs in antenna structure, radio frequency architecture, IF (intermediate frequency) algorithms, and multi-user MIMO (multi-input multi-output). It significantly improves the spectrum utilization efficiency of mobile communications systems and the construction and operation efficiency of entire networks. Key features include:

Innovative antenna structure greatly improves performance and meets wideband requirements

Next generation direct radio frequency technology reduces costs and power consumption, and realizes ultra broadband carrier aggregation

Cutting-edge multi-antenna coding algorithm makes full use of MIMO (multi-input multi-output) channel capacity

According to recent data from the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), Huawei has had 265 LTE/LTE-A Core specifications approved since 2010, which is 20% of the total number approved and the most out of any other company in the industry. Huawei's dedication to sharing its technological and intellectual property continues to play a fundamental role in the development of the global LTE industry.
