The trials, which are scheduled to commence in the first half of 2010, will take place over a period of six to nine months. The trials will lay the groundwork to establish a regionally compatible LTE network to facilitate growth in the mobile broadband business for the SingTel Group, which now serves a mobile-user base of more than 273 million across its various markets.. LTE base stations and core network equipment will be installed for detailed field tests that will evaluate the features and end-to-end performance of the technology. SingTel will conduct tests for a wide range of scenarios and conditions, including different frequency bands and urban environments. Six leading network vendors have been invited to participate in the LTE trials: Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson, Huawei, NEC, Nokia Siemens Networks and ZTE. For the trial, Alcatel-Lucent confirmed that it will provide an end-to-end solution including the radio access network (eUTRAN), the Evolved Packet Core (EPC), IP service routing network elements as well as operation, administration and maintenance (OAM) systems. Alcatel-Lucent will also provide professional services including project management, planning, installation & commissioning, integration and test plan execution. http://www.singtel.com 18-Nov-09     Learn How to Get Your Video on this Site Recent Broadband Wireless News Alcatel-Lucent Acquires OpenPlug, Extending its Application Enablement Strategy 9/1/2010 Clearwire Offers Pay-As-You-Go Mobile Broadband, $5/Day 8/30/2010 NSN Partners with Telefónica on Smartphone Experience Lab 8/30/2010 Ceragon Notes Mobile Backhaul Order from Leading Indian Carrier 8/30/2010 SK Telecom Selects ALU's MPLS-TP Packet Optical Backhaul 8/27/2010 AT4 Wireless Establishes LTE Test Lab in Taiwan 8/26/2010 Chile's Movistar Upgrades with NSN's HSPA+ 8/26/2010 Malaysia's Maxis Selects Huawei for FTTH 8/26/2010 List of Carriers Planning LTE Deployment Tops 100 8/26/2010 Telia Launches Commercial LTE in Gothenburg 8/25/2010 California Works with Sprint on First Mobile Alert System 8/25/2010 WSJ: Corporate America Adopting Apple's iPad 8/24/2010 Telecom Italia Tests LTE in Turin 8/24/2010 Virgin Mobile USA Offers $40 Unlimited Prepaid Mobile Broadband 8/24/2010 Tata Teleservices selects NSN for 3G 8/23/2010 > More news...     Search  this site   Search the Web   Get Your Column Published Emergency Response and Wireless Location Systems by Manlio Allegra Interview: NSN's Sue Spradley on LightSquared's Wholesale Mobile Data Paradigm by Sue Spradley Mobile Backhaul Transition Requires New Testing by Joe Zeto Cybersecurity Requires Public/Private Coalition by Greg Oslan A Rethinking of Cloud Services and Network Architecture by Jim Theodoras Delivering Scalable Video Solutions <br><i> Advantages of SVC-Optimized QoS</i> by Andy Singleton   E-mail Newsletter Subscribe Now
