Shanghai, China – 3 June 2015
In yet another affirmation of Nokia Networks’ prowess and expertise in small cell deployments, China Mobile Shanghai selected the company to implement its TD-LTE Advanced HetNet solution at Auto Shanghai 2015. The event was held at the China Expo Complex, which is the world’s largest building. Nokia Networks implemented its Flexi Zone TD-LTE small cells to ramp up China Mobile’s network capacity to manage the immense amount of wireless data traffic generated by 1 million visitors. Due to Nokia Networks’ extensive technical knowledge and services expertise, subscribers enjoyed an unmatched mobile broadband experience, enhanced by best-in-class network availability, coverage and capacity.
During the course of the 10-day event, the peak hours saw 100,000 simultaneous TD-LTE users, as most of the 1 million visitors used multiple applications to share pictures and videos. With macro parity, and complemented by Nokia Smart Scheduler, Flexi Zone TD-LTE small cells ensured excellent network availability while managing wireless data with up to 600 simultaneous active TD-LTE users per cell – setting an industry benchmark in terms of indoor small cell performance.

Notes:
* The compact, multi-technology, modular and weatherproof Nokia Flexi Multiradio 10 Base Station is an award winner and supports a throughput of 10 Gbps. It enables energy-efficient base station sites with a 70% improvement in power consumption compared to traditional cabinet-based sites.
** Nokia Flexi Zone enables operators to increase capacity by deploying clusters of access points in hot spots and zones. The award-winning Flexi Zone is an LTE/Wi-Fi-capable solution which complements macro networks with an underlay of small cells at the street and indoor level. This provides significant performance benefits, macro co-existence, traffic offloading, simplified backhauling and low O&M impact. So operators can provide a remarkably rich customer experience in urban capacity problem areas while keeping the total cost of ownership much lower than conventional small-cell deployments.
