| NTT DoCoMo achieves 5Gbps Downlink in 4G field trials As America struggles with the transition to proper 3G networks, Japan continues to make strides towards the fourth generation of mobile phone networks. In field experiments, NTT DoCoMo, the largest mobile phone operator in Japan, achieved an approximate 5Gbps downlink data rate. That beats previous tests by a factor of two, as DoCoMo managed to achieve 2.5Gbps over a year ago in December 2005.
I wonder why the US and Canada are lagging behind, before they used to be pioneers in technology area. Hope the Politicians spend more to kick start these technologies soon, it will be good for the future. |
