BT Group, Nokia and Qualcomm combined for what was claimed as the first test of 5G carrier aggregation using five components in Europe, a technology expected to achieve improved capacity and greater downlink speeds for users in high demand areas.<\/p>\n
The trial took place at BT\u2019s R&D facility on live spectrum using Nokia kit and a device sporting a Qualcomm Snapdragon modem. It formed part of the operator\u2019s preparation for the launch of its EE brand\u2019s standalone 5G network later this year.<\/p>\n
Tests of the system achieved downlink speeds of 1.85Gb\/s using three FDD carriers aggregated with two TDD ones. They had a combined bandwidth of 150MHz.<\/p>\n
Nokia and BT claimed the use of five component-carrier carrier aggregation (5CC CA) would boost data rates in high demand areas by \u201ccombining all mid-band radio spectrum\u201d when a standalone 5G device requires high-speed connection.<\/p>\n
When EE\u2019s standalone network launches the operator will also have the ability to use a \u201clow frequency sixth carrier to provide a superior experience in more places, including indoors,\u201d the duo added.<\/p>\n
The test represents the latest demonstration of carrier aggregation<\/a> conducted between the partners as BT prepares to launch standalone 5G<\/a>, a technology the operator\u2019s chief networks officer Greg McCall has highlighted numerous times as one it would not bring to market until it was able to provide a sufficiently differentiated service<\/a>.<\/p>\n In its statement today, McCall said it wanted to build \u201cfurther on the benefits of carrier aggregation in delivering greater throughput and speeds to customers. This is particularly important as more and more devices come to market with 5CC CA capabilities\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are focused on maximising our spectrum assets to deliver the very best experience to our customers with that in mind,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n UK rival Vodafone announced the limited launch of its standalone 5G network last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n The post High fives all round for Nokia,
