Alcatel-LucentandLG Electronicshave completed
Long Term Evolution (LTE)test calls using
Alcatel-Lucent's LTE system and mobile device prototypes from LG.
3GPP LTE technology is being designed to provide higher data
transfer speeds using less spectrum.
The companies tested super high-speed data transmissions
transmitting over a 10 MHz channel. The companies' trials are part
of a broader testing initiative that is being overseen by LTE/SAE
Trial Initiative (LSTI) group.
The collaboration between Alcatel-Lucent and LGE focuses on
ensuring the early availability of a stable, open and fully
integrated LTE ecosystem.
The companies carried out the tests with Bell Labs researchers
in Alcatel-Lucent's facility in Stuttgart, Germany.
