Nokia Siemens Networks demonstrated 1.3 Gbits throughput over TD-LTE

It was showcasing LTE-Advanced in Arlington Heights, Chikago (ex-Moto) labs.

"Using our commercial Single RAN Flexi base station hardware, we demonstrated a speed of 1.3 Gigabits per second (Gbps) throughput over TD-LTE by aggregating 60 MHz of spectrum. At this speed, we were able to show how we can help operators meet their customers’ increased uplink capacity demand through a new LTE-Advanced feature, Multi User MIMO (or MU-MIMO). This demonstration replicated our recent record speed demo in Beijing, but used a different configuration of the 3GPP specification – config1 – and included MU-MIMO uplink capabilities". \http://blogs.nokiasiemensnetworks.com

That is really cool result, especially if we take into account that it was used commercial hardware.
