There were the first in the world field testing technologies LTE

Nortel and LG Electronics LTE transfer of technology from laboratories to the streets to implement the world's first test function handover (transfer a call from one base station to another in the process of motion) on technology LTE. Engineers research and development department of the Centre for Advanced Studies in Ottawa, Nortel demonstrated streaming high-definition video using a new mobile LTE-device company LG Electronics during the traffic on the highway at a speed of 100 km / h and movement between different zones covering. This achievement demonstrates the possibility of LTE-solutions from Nortel in real-world conditions and brings them out into the market, which is expected in late 2009.

Today presented the result shows that the LTE-Nortel solution can provide the same reliable coverage for mobile devices, which attracts both users of existing networks second and third generation, with greater network capacity, greater bandwidth and minimal time delay. Wireless networks provide continuous coverage and retain users connect with their movement, passing the signal from one site to another. Tests of wireless technologies LTE Nortel demonstrated the workability of this important function. LTE helps fill the gap between demand and capacity of operators, allowing you to create wireless broadband networks fourth generation, which can provide coverage for millions of mobile users.

The demonstration was held LTE opportunities based network consisting of multiple cells and sectors, using base stations LTE Nortel eNodeB and access gateways, based on ATCA. The possibility of interaction and Nortel network terminal device LG Electronics is based on standard 3GPP (Release 8). The first to reach that goal, Nortel is headed by the introduction of LTE for operators and their users. Thanks LTE-decisions from Nortel operators can a simple, efficient and economical way to move to provide broadband communication services to the fourth generation for their clients regardless of the type of wireless network, which today is the operator of cellular communication - CDMA, GSM, UMTS, or embark on the provision of services fourth-generation connection so operators, who only entered the wireless market.
