Wireless operator Taiwan Mobile has selected Nokia Solutions and Networks to deploy its multi-band LTE network. NSN will also deploy LTE-Advanced Carrier Aggregation technology to increase bandwidth and network performance by combining the 700 MHz and 1,800 MHz spectrum bands, LteWorld reports.

Taiwan Mobile is deploying LTE using the 700 MHz spectrum band. This band provides an excellent basis for high quality indoor cell and rural area coverage and supports LTE devices that are already widely available. The operator is also implementing additional capacity using the global 1,800 MHz band and will aggregate the two frequencies in high-density areas for high throughput.

Under the contract, NSN will implement its Flexi Multiradio 10 Base Stations, Evolved Packet Core technology and NetAct network management system. The agreement also covers network planning and optimization services.
