Optus connects first 700Mhz LTE call
news In an announcement this week, Optus revealed that it had been successful in connecting Australia’s first Long Term Evolution (LTE) call in the 700MHz ‘Digital Dividend’ spectrum band.
This signals the start of Optus’ 700MHz LTE trials in Bendigo, Victoria with its technology partner Huawei, in its bid to deliver faster mobile broadband services with superior coverage across existing networks. With this, Australia moves a step closer in Long Term Evolution, a key milestone in Optus’ technology goal to give its customers lower latency and swifter wireless data speeds.
This trial will help Optus to estimate the speed and coverage of 700MHz technology in comparison with other LTE technologies. The technology trials started this week shortly after Optus became the first Australian carrier to be allowed access to the Digital Dividend spectrum. Another significant element of the trial involves the facility to test various current Optus applications and services, including smartphone apps, IPTV, mobile TV services, HD video conferencing and low-latency gaming inside an LTE environment.
