Nokia Siemens Networks, a global enabler of telecommunications services, demonstrated the Time Division Duplex version of LTE (TD-LTE) using broadband wireless access (BWA) spectrum in India. They demonstrated high-definition video streaming and three-way video conferencing. Interoperable TD-LTE dongles from Samsung were used to achieve a peak throughput speed of 110 megabits per second (Mbps) and low latency in the range of 10-20 milliseconds. The company’s Flexi Multiradio Base Station and Evolved Packet Core were the base of the end to end demonstration.

The first video call by Gurdeep Singh, chief operating officer of Aircel, was conducted with the 4G mobile technology running on commercial hardware at the Nokia Siemens Networks’ Bangalore R&D facility. TD-LTE technology ensures high-speed mobile broadband connectivity and a superior performance from mobile applications across a wide range of devices. “Our TD-LTE trials across the globe prove our capability in driving rapid commercial TD-LTE network deployments aimed at facilitating a new wave of advanced mobile broadband services.” says Juha Lappalainen, head of mobile broadband sales at Nokia Siemens Networks.

The company is working towards TD-LTE development and commercialization, is fully prepared and committed to support the LTE activities. To achieve this, the company is in talks with many operators globally. They are actively participating in tests and trials for both Frequency Division Duplex LTE (FD-LTE) and TD-LTE technologies, while working with telecom operators and device manufacturers to strengthen the network.
