Vodafone Germany and Huawei test LTE in 790-862MHz

Vodafone Germany is to test LTE technology in the digital dividend band this summer using Huawei kit as part of a new alliance between the two companies.

The trial with Huawei is Vodafone Germany's second major initiative in this area. In May, the operator teamed with German public broadcaster WDR and the federal government of North Rhine-Westphalia to launch LTE services in rural areas in the region using digital dividend spectrum. In February, rival German mobile operator E-Plus partnered with Ericsson and the German state Mecklenburg-Vorpommern to launch a mobile broadband pilot using digital dividend frequencies.
