The fastest speeds out there
The fastest speeds out there are on Ericsson's LTE Advanced network, as demonstrated in a trial for Swedish regulators in Stockholm. The system, based on commercial hardware, was operating on a test frequency provided by the PTS. This enabled Ericsson to demonstrate LTE Advanced functionality such as carrier aggregation of 3 x 20MHz (60MHz aggregated) over the air in a mobile environment for the first time.
