Nokia Siemens Networks launches TD-LTE "6 Pipes" Remote Radio Head
Nokia Siemens Networks has introduced a Liquid Radio-based "6 pipes" remote radio head that can support a 6-sector TD-LTE site to deliver 80% more capacity and 40% more coverage as compared to traditional 3-sector sites. This enables higher data speeds, and reduces total cost of ownership by 40%.
"Our new, high-capacity 6 pipes remote radio head is a great addition to our TD-LTE RAN (Radio Access Network) portfolio and promises to take the TD-LTE experience to the next level. In addition to enabling a more flexible approach to TD-LTE, the new product delivers much higher throughput and lower latency than other offerings, to enable higher data speeds.
Subscribers can thus enjoy the same level of mobile broadband, anywhere and everywhere, no matter what applications they are using," said Tommi Uitto, Head, LTE radio access business line, Nokia Siemens Networks.
Nokia Siemens Networks' 6 pipes remote radio head is based on Liquid Radio architecture, which self-adapts coverage and capacity based on subscriber demand. The offering's unique 6 pipes beamforming feature mitigates signal loss due to interference. This helps deliver up to 50% higher data speeds and improved coverage, compared to 4-path radio heads, for subscribers in high-density areas, both indoors and outdoors. This feature also eliminates the need for additional sites, and reduces CAPEX, OPEX and site costs.
The offering is 3GPP standardized and is now commercially available globally.
