Using a single RAN prototype LTE advanced 80MHz wideband radio with CA, MIMO, CoMP Huawei was able to produce extremely fast speeds with low latency.
At a recent Telstra briefing chief operations Officer Michael Rocca told ChannelNews that Telstra’s LTE trials were well advanced and depending on spectrum availability the Company was confident of being able to deliver 100Mbps over the Telstra LTE network.
Currently Optus is testing LTD in the Sydney suburb of Pymble.
Rocca said the Telstra’s LTE technology will boost its Next G network wireless speeds up to 172Mbps.
In the USA Seattle police are trialling LTE technology that will if implemented allow them to stream live video back and forth between headquarters and a vehicle on the road. In Australia video shot via a police car is currently stored in the vehicle until it returns to base.
Currently Labor is proposing that $43 Billion is spent on a 100 Gps fibre to the home network while the opposition is proposing an investment of $6.5 Billion into a Wireless based broadband network.
