World’s first ever D-LTE Femtocells demonstration was
conducted by Nokia Siemens Networks and China Mobile Communications Corporation
this month.
"User habits indicate that
the majority of mobile broadband capacity will be consumed inside homes and
offices where coverage is typically lower than outdoor spaces," said Huang
Xiaoqing, General Manager of China Mobile Research Institute. "Miniature
wireless base stations like Femtocells can improve the indoor service
experience of our customers. Furthermore, TD-LTE Femtocells can fully leverage
the advantages of TDD frequency, provide a fast and flexible indoor coverage
solution and effectively manage network capacity and cost."
Live video downlink streaming was demonstrated by Nokia
Siemens in the famous China Mobile's Research Institute laboratory. The
demonstration showed an increased xDSL speed through residential broadband
connection.
"LTE is around the corner and we are doing everything
to ensure its rapid deployment in networks around the world," said Stephan
Scholz, CTO at Nokia Siemens Networks. "This demo - the world's first
-highlights our innovative research leadership in LTE."
Nokia Siemens is further planning to expand its R&D
infrastructure in China. This will boost the commercialization of TD-LTE.
A latest research by AMR states that that femto cell technology market can touch of $3,712 million by 2020. If this is true, many
investors have a golden opportunity to invest and earn a high rate of return.
