Huawei has improved on the best, the company has said in a press release, claiming that it has developed a new technology “Beyond LTE technology, which significantly increases peak rates to 30Gbps – over 20 times faster than existing commercial LTE networks.”
The breakthrough comes in improvements to antenna design, RF architecture and multi-user MIMO, the keys to achieving breakneck bandwidth speeds.
Current LTE standards, including the yet-unreleased LTE Advanced, max out at around 3.3Gbps, which tower over the existing 300Mbps max we can achieve using 20Mhz 4×4 MIMO on our existing architecture.
Not much else is known about the impending boost to our already-quick RF renaissance other than to say it will likely be backward-compatible with LTE-Advanced to some extent. The first LTE-A rollouts are expected in the next two to three years.
