Huawei has
opened its innovation centre and LTE demonstration in Bandung, in collaboration
with Telkomsel, a operator in Indonesia.
Utilizing
Huawei’s SingleRAN LTE solution, the downlink data rate can reach up to
71.4Mb/s with 10 MHz bandwidth. Indonesian telecom ministry officials and
Telkomsel executives witnessed LTE high spectrum efficiency.
Huawei worked
with Telkomsel on the construction of the new R&D facility to support
on-demand HD video, FTP throughput, live high-speed Internet, and digital
shopping mall demonstrations.
“Based on
customer-centric innovation, and by sharing intellectual property rights with
the industry and complying with international IPR rules, Huawei has become the
leading LTE industry player and a key contributor to LTE standards and
patents,” said Paul Michael Scanlan, vice president of Huawei South Pacific.
Huawei has
established more than 20 joint innovation centers with global leading operators
around the world, like this one with Telkomsel. The Chinese equipment vendor is
now leading the strong development of the LTE industry in Indonesia by
transforming advanced technologies into customer competitiveness and success in
business.
The
telecommunication sector in Indonesia has advanced at a rapid pace in the
recent years. While the mobile broadband market continues to flourish with the
growing pace of wireless data usage, operators around the world, including
those in Indonesia, are all facing a common challenge of limited mobile network
capacity and coverage.
Huawei, being Telkomsel’s
strategic partner, has already prepared Telkomsel for LTE by thoroughly
implementing its SingleRAN products in its network.
With Huawei’s
SingleRAN LTE system, a peak date rate of 71.6 Mb/s was achieved using a
channel bandwidth of 10MHz, and average throughput of over 70 Mb/s. Also, with
Huawei’s LTE system performance, over 10 MP3 songs can be downloaded in a
second. Huawei also demonstrated 32 simultaneous HD videos running on the LTE
system to show multi-user LTE performance.
According to the
latest Evolution to LTE report released on October 12, 2011, by the Global
mobile Suppliers Association (GSA), out of the 35 commercial LTE networks
launched globally, 18 of them use Huawei’s end-to-end SingleRAN LTE solution.
Huawei’s
contribution to LTE standards and patents has played a pivotal role in the
company gaining the lead in global LTE commercialization. As the largest
contributor to LTE standards and patents in the industry since 2010, Huawei
submitted more than 7,900 LTE/EPC (Evolved Packet Core) contributions to 3G
Partnership Project (3GPP), including more than 230 approved contributions of
LTE Core Specification.
