Chinese telecommunications equipment manufacturer Huawei Technologies and mobile operator Netcom have launched a mobile broadband internet connection over a live commercial LTE network in Oslo, Norway. The live LTE network demonstration in Oslo, between a laptop PC with a 4G modem and public internet/intranet, included downloads of high resolution photos, music, movies and mobile business applications, at higher speeds than most fixed internet accesses currently available. Via the LTE MIMO and OFDM technologies, the download peak data rate can reach 150 Mbps in one LTE cell with multiple terminals. This is the second LTE trial network in the TeliaSonera group, after the company opened a site in Stockholm with Ericsson last month.
