LTE Category 6
LTE Cat.6 - LTE Advanced with up to 300 Mbps
LTE Cat.6 allows transfer rates of up to 300 Mbps in the download and up to 50 Mbps in the upload. The mobile standard is the first category of LTE Advanced. Technically, LTE Cat-6 realizes its high 4G speed via MIMO (Multiple Input - Multiple Output) and Carrier Aggregation (2 x 20 MHz). In the multi-antenna technology uses 2 x 2 antennas. A typical feature of LTE Cat-6 is above all the carrier bundling. The classic LTE uses only the multi-antenna technology MIMO, which limits the transmission rates of the current 4G networks. LTE networks with category 6 have already been launched worldwide.
Carrier Aggregation(in short: CA) is one of the typical LTE technologies applied for LTE Category 6. Carrier aggregation plays a fundamental role in particular when the mobile device operates in a congested network and therefore the available band is shared among many devices. While in this condition, the theoretical maximum data rate is not achievable and the possibility of aggregating more channels results in a higher data rate for CA enabled devices.
How Does Carrier Aggregation Work?
With carrier aggregation, different bandwidths can be combined to provide greater throughput. With LTE Cat 6, 20 MHz of bandwidth produces a maximum speed of 150 Mb/s. Carrier aggregation allows operators to combine multiple, separate LTE carriers to achieve greater bandwidth and thereby data throughput. For example, 20 MHz of bandwidth from one LTE band can be combined with another 20 MHz from another band (Scenario 2, Interband CA) to achieve a total of 40 MHz bandwidth or a maximum data rate of 300 Mb/s. In a similar way, sections of bandwidth can also be combined within a single LTE band (Scenario 1, Intraband CA).
