Summary
Tokyo Institute of Technology announced today that in a joint outdoor experiment conducted recently with NTT DOCOMO, INC. (hereafter, “DOCOMO”), it succeeded in the world’s first packet transmission uplink rate of approximately 10 Gbps. The test, which is expected to help pave the way for future super-high-bit-rate mobile communications, took place on Ishigaki City in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan on December 11, 2012.
In the experiment, a 400 MHz bandwidth in the 11 GHz spectrum was transmitted from a mobile station moving at approximately 9 km/h. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology was used to spatially multiplex different data streams using eight transmitting antennas and 16 receiving antennas on the same frequency.
