Motorola сегодня объявляет о своих достижениях в области коммерциализации решений TD-LTE. Компания будет участвовать в совместном продвижении этой технологии с операторами сотовой связи в Китае, в рамках пилотных проектов TD-LTE, намеченных на 2009 год. Это должно подчеркнуть намерения Motorola продолжать развитие направления TD-LTE в интересах операторов Китая, а также операторов всего мира, работающих с технологиями TDD.

Motorola отмечает, что намерена и далее поддерживать обе технологии - TD-LTE и FDD-LTE. Motorola планирует обеспечить поддержку "экосистемы" LTE в 4Q08 до середины 2010 года.

Компании предстоит нелегкая конкурентная борьба, совсем недавно свое решение LTE-TDD продемонстрировала канадская Nortel. а Huawei Technologies показала унифицированное решение TD/FDD.
