SK Telecom to boost LTE network with more spectrum
2014-02-17 22:51:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Korean telecommunications carrier SK Telecom plans to build additional 1.8 GHz base stations to ensure nationwide coverage for its LTE and LTE-Advanced networks by the end of this year. The rollout of this 20 MHz LTE service will offer speeds of up to 225 Mbps. SK Telecom has also announced it has been granted approval to use 10 MHz of 2.1 GHz bandwidth for LTE. The operator plans to deploy LTE-Advanced Carrier Aggregation technology to combine the 10 MHz in the 800 MHz band, 20 MHz in the 1.8 GHz band, and 10 MHz in the 2.1 GHz band to support speeds of up to 300 Mbps. SK Telecom won 30 MHz of 2.1 GHz spectrum in a 2010 auction. The operator will begin building base stations for LTE in the 2.1 GHz band in the second quarter, making the network available for commercialisation as soon as supporting handsets come to market. Until then, SK Telecom will apply Multi Carrier technology to these 2.1 GHz base stations to support its existing LTE networks.

Minucci confirmed as Telecom Italia chairman until April
2014-02-07 09:30:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Telecom Italia confirmed the appointment of Aldo Minucci as the company's new chairman at its board meeting held on 06 February, a post he is only expected to keep until April when all directors are due to be re-elected. Minucci is currently the company's vice chairman and has been acting chairman since Franco Bernabe resigned in October. In comments made to financial website First Online, the new chairman said that he would represent the interests of all shareholders over the next three months and that it was unlikely that he would stay on as chairman after the shareholders' meeting scheduled for 16 April because "there is a need to give more space to independent personalities." At the meeting, the board of Telecom Italia also confirmed that it had agreed on a procedure that would introduce new safeguards for shareholders should it decide to sell its Brazilian mobile unit TIM Brasil. In a subsequent statement the company said that the new procedure would apply to all transactions with a value exceeding EUR 2 billion.
