Motorola Announces Significant Progress on TD-LTE Trials, Further Accelerating TD-LTE Commercialization
BEIJING – Motorola’s (NYSE: MOT) Home & Networks Mobility business announced that Motorola is the first company to successfully complete and pass the time-division duplex long-term evolution (TD-LTE) key functionalities test initiated by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). The testing measures high-bandwidth network capacity and a number of key TD-LTE features, demonstrating another milestone of collaborative industry efforts on TD-LTE commercialization. This significant advancement also reaffirms Motorola’s commitment to deliver next-generation networks to meet the future needs of TDD spectrum operators in China and around the world.
Motorola’s key trial achievements include:
• High performance in system equipment platforms such as reaching a peak throughput in excess of 100 megabits per second (Mbps)
• Successful demonstration of key TD-LTE features including hand-over, multi-antenna, quality of service (QoS), power control and more
• Adoption of third-party user equipment (UE) test to guarantee standard compliance
Motorola is now ready to begin multi-site/multi-UE testing through the TD-LTE field trials.
MIIT established a TD-LTE working group in June 2009 with China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom, as well as other key industry partners including system manufacturers, chipset manufacturers and terminal equipment manufacturers, taking a leadership role to provide a stronger driving force for the TD-LTE industry chain. Motorola is actively engaged in these efforts by leveraging its TDD technology expertise and rich experience in commercialized Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) solutions, once again demonstrating its leadership position in TD-LTE. This also follows the recently announced selection by China Mobile Communications Corporation (CMCC), where Motorola was selected as the primary TD-LTE solution partner to provide indoor coverage for all major pavilions at the World Expo 2010 Shanghai China.
Motorola has world-class research and development (R&D) facilities devoted to TD-LTE development, including two R&D centers in China, which enable a prompt response to customer requirements. Motorola’s Wireless Broadband Access Solutions (WBAS) Hangzhou Center and Wideband Base Transceiver Systems (WBTS) China Center have been working with Chinese operators for many years and can provide valuable insights on local needs. By leveraging their unique understanding and strong technical base, Motorola is able work closely with other key industry players to develop a globally competitive TD-LTE industry.
“Motorola is committed to broadband and 4G developments and has made significant progress in TD-LTE commercialization in 2009," said Dr. Mohammad Akhtar, vice president and general manager for the Wireless Networks division of Motorola’s Home & Networks Mobility business in Asia Pacific. “The trial success at this stage announced today once again demonstrates the maturity of our TD-LTE solution. The achievement also demonstrates the cellular community’s readiness to move into networks that make true personal broadband on the move a reality. We are looking forward to carrying this commitment into 2010 and leading the market in further development and deployment of TD-LTE technology.”
Motorola remains on track on its LTE ecosystem plan and is now making steady progress on TD-LTE commercialization. Recently, Motorola demonstrated the world’s first live TD-LTE drive tour in Geneva at ITU Telecom World 2009. Earlier, Motorola also announced the successful completion of its joint Over-the-Air (OTA) trial with operators as part of the collaborative trials scheduled throughout 2009.
Motorola’s LTE Solution
Motorola continues to build its LTE momentum with the demonstration of LTE expertise during the world’s first TD-LTE live drive demo at ITU Telecom in Geneva. This follows successful live LTE drive experiences earlier this year in Barcelona, Las Vegas, and Sweden. Motorola has been selected by KDDI as a key vendor to help develop and implement KDDI’s nationwide LTE network. Motorola also is engaged in LTE trial activity with other operators in North America, Europe and Asia, and operates anLTE trial network and testing lab in Swindon, UK.
Motorola’s LTE solution is comprised of its OFDM broadband platform and a selection of radio options that include multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and smart antennas. It also features Motorola’s advanced self-organizing network (SON) solution. Motorola's WBR 500 series LTE eNodeB offers flexible deployment options with frame based-mounted radios, remote radio heads and tower top radios to support a wide variety of LTE deployment scenarios across numerous spectrum bands to meet the needs of the global market.
Motorola’s LTE portfolio also includes its evolved packet core (EPC) solution - the Wireless Broadband Core (WBC) 700 portfolio, backhaul, network management solutions, video solutions that monetize LTE investment, and a complete portfolio of professional services. The Motorola WBC 700 is comprised of Motorola’s mobility management entity (MME), packet and serving gateways (P-GW and S-GW), and a policy and charging rules function server (PCRF).
Motorola's LTE portfolio has won multiple awards, including its EPC and advanced SON solutions being named recipients of the 2009 4GWE LTE Visionary Award. In addition the SON was recognized in the Service Management category at the 2009 CTIA Wireless E-Tech Competition, EPC as a finalist in the 2009 InfoVision Awards, and the eNodeB received a 2009 Next Generation Networks Leadership Award.
