Huawei Unveils LTE-B Vision FusionNet at MWC

February 26, 2013 |
BARCELONA -- Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology provider, today announced the launch of a new generation of network architecture for LTE-B, FusionNet, at the 2013 Mobile World Congress (MWC). This new architecture improves CEU (Cell Edge User) throughput by at least 500% with a series of multi-RAT, multi-band and multi-layer HetNet enhancements to realize No-Edgeâ„¢ networks of seamless high-speed coverage.

Over the next 10 years, mobile data traffic capacity is expected to grow over 500 times. Such explosive levels of data traffic growth will undoubtedly present unprecedented challenges to current MBB network architecture, whereby how to improve and maintain a seamless user experience will dominate future technical development.

Huawei’s FusionNet concept for LTE-B comprises several core technologies, including multi-stream aggregation, interference coordination, traffic adaption and spectrum efficiency optimization. FusionNet coordinates existing LTE and LTE-A deployments and technologies (including CoMP and carrier aggregation) to realize a total fusion of multi-RAT, multi-band and multi-layer networks. A core benefit of FusionNet is drastically reducing network CAPEX and OPEX.

The FusionNet vision is one of end users enjoying high speeds with anywhere, anytime access to reliable mobile broadband services. It realizes ultra-wideband, zero waiting and ubiquitous connectivity network capabilities to bring end users high-speed and high-quality connections for a seamless, simple and service-enhanced mobile broadband experience.

Also at the 2013 MWC, Huawei unveiled its Ultra Node prototype design for future mobile broadband base stations. Ultra Node enhances the spectrum utilization and overall network efficiency to realize 50 Gb/s peak data speed in a single node. Its core technologies (including an innovatively redesigned antenna structure) greatly improve antenna performance, satisfy wideband and high network performance capacity demands, reduce networks costs and power loss, realize multi-stream aggregation of ultra-widebands, and allows for greater channel capacity given implementation of a more advanced multi-antenna encoding algorithm.

Since 2010, Huawei has contributed 362 LTE, LTE-A and LTE-B proposals for 3GPP LTE standards, nearly 20% of the global total and more than any other contributor. Huawei’s formulation and development of LTE, LTE-A and LTE-B standards mark new milestones in the development of LTE worldwide.
