With this demonstration the two companies showed that speed can be achieved by using multiple 20 megahertz carriers in LTE mobile networks. In total they used three carriers and 60 MHz frequency spectrum, of which one carrier was in the band from 1800 MHz, while the other two were located in the 2600 MHz band.

LTE Advanced is a significant upgrade of the standard Long Term Evolution (LTE), which would theoretically in ideal conditions enable transfer speeds to users of 3.3 Gbps.
