Hamsphire UK-based wireless test gear maker, Anite, Thursday announced that it has achieved a new mileston in the LTE-Advanced peak data rate throughput of 300 Mbps with 40 MHz bandwidth using three Component Carrier Aggregation ("3 CC CA"). Anite worked in close collaboration with a leading mobile chipset manufacturer to demonstrate the breakthrough bitrate on mobile.
LTE-A Carrier Aggregation enables mobile operators with limited contiguous frequency allocations to realise superior data rates by combining spectrum resources from various bands.
According to Anite, three carriers with downlink bandwidths of 20 MHz, 10 MHz and 10 MHz were used to achieve the 300 Mbps (Category 6) on Anite's Development Toolset. It added that ultimately, aggregation of three Component Carriers - with 20 MHz bandwidth each - allows mobile operators to deliver downlink data rates to end-users of up to 450 Mbps.
“The 3 CC CA achievement underlines how Anite's collaborative relationships with key industry players and its advanced technology roadmap accelerate the development of LTE-A CA chipsets and devices."
