Over with the newer 4G technology, LTE, the early interest has been firmly focused on mature mobile markets, especially Europe. Huawei has added yet another trial to its growing list in the region, carrying out a live test with Telefonica O2 UK. The companies achieved a peak downlink of 150Mbps in a trial in the Slough area west of London, as part of the broader six-country LTE tests being conducted by Telefonica, with most of the active vendors, across Europe and Latin America.
In Stockholm, Huawei has an early deployment with TeliaSonera, but the operator has gone live in the downtown area of the Swedish capital with its other - and more established - vendor, Ericsson. TeliaSonera customers are being issued with Samsung LTE dongles to test the network. Kenneth Karlberg, president and head of mobility services at Telia, said: "Thanks to the successful cooperation with Ericsson we can offer 4G to our customers in Stockholm earlier than originally planned."
