Doha Qatar Home of Ooredoo and 2014 ITU Telecom World
Nokia, Ooredoo Qatar and China Mobile have just announced at ITU Telecom World 2014 in Doha that they claim the world speed record for carrier aggregation on LTE achieving 4.1 Gbps.
They achieved this by combining 10X20 MHz carriers, a mix of TDD and FDD, twice the largest number of carriers currently specified by 3GPP.
Don’t expect to see these peak speeds on any commercial network any time soon but it does show what is possible if – and it is a big if – you have enough spectrum.
