The most latest generation of chipsets is being used to efficiently mix TDD and FDD mid-band spectrum on a time basis. Now, Airtel, MediaTek, and Nokia have announced the successful conclusion of these trials.
At Airtel‘s tech lab, an experiment with the goal of optimizing uplink performance was carried out. Uplink speeds of 300 Mbps were reached, creating a new standard for 5G network performance. It emphasizes Airtel’s dedication to provide cutting-edge solutions that satisfy the constantly expanding needs of a connected world.
By aggregating frequency bands of 2.1 Ghz (n1) and 3.5 Ghz (n78), the trial improved UL speeds. This innovative technique dramatically improves the uplink performance for demanding use cases by more effectively dynamically switching the uplink transmission across two carriers in TDD and FDD spectrum.
Randeep Sekhon, Chief Technology Officer, Bharti Airtel said, “At Airtel, continuous innovation remains the bedrock of all our product and service offerings. This trial not only stands testament to our philosophy of enhancing our state-of-the-art network infrastructure and delivering an unmatched 5G user experience but will also greatly enhance our network’s uplink performance, resulting in faster data speeds and improved connectivity.”
Dr. Ho-Chi Hwang, General Manager of Wireless Communication Systems and Partnerships at MediaTek, said: “We are thrilled to collaborate with Bharti Airtel and Nokia on this groundbreaking trial in India where our Dimensity 5G mobile platform played a crucial role in achieving the highest uplink speeds on Airtel’s 5G network. This partnership underscores our commitment to delivering cutting-edge technology that enhances the connectivity experience for users.”
Tarun Chhabra, Country Manager and Head of Mobile Networks Business at Nokia, India, said: “We are proud to partner with our long-term partner Airtel on this ground-breaking project. Uplink Tx switching will pave the way for superior 5G networks, enabling seamless data transfer in mobile devices and driving demand for data-intensive applications like XR. We congratulate Bharti Airtel for achieving this milestone and pushing the boundaries of connectivity to new realms.”
The Novel UL Tx Switching Technology
In order to meet the needs of high-demand use cases like video conferencing, live streaming, and massive file uploads, the novel UL Tx switching technology promises faster connectivity, an improved user experience, and increased network efficiency. MediaTek supplied the user equipment for this advanced experiment, while the Indian telecom giant employed equipment from Nokia’s next-generation 5G AirScale radio range, affirmed its official release.
