[Moscow, Russia, December 22, 2020] recently, MTS of Russia and Huawei completed the world's first commercial application of smart 8t8r solution in Moscow. After commercial deployment in Moscow hot spot area, compared with the former 4t4r network, the network capacity gain is 1.9 times, and the average user experience gain is 2.1 times, which greatly alleviates the capacity pressure of the area and ensures the high-quality user experience. The successful commercialization shows the innovation ability of both sides and the determination of MTS Russia to build 5g ready 4G network for the future.

With the rapid development of mobile Internet applications, high-definition video, online games and other services pose a huge challenge to MBB network capacity. Smart 8t8r solution can help operators make the best use of existing site and spectrum resources, and greatly improve the wireless network capacity and user experience. This solution will be an important solution to meet the common capacity scenarios of operators.

Smart 8t8r solution includes SDA (software defined antenna), FDD dual band 8t8r RRU and Huawei innovative algorithm. This solution can realize 2G / 3G / 4G multi sector on-demand software upgrade and expansion with one hardware deployment, and support 5g smooth upgrade, which helps operators save fixed investment and operating costs. It is one of Huawei's important solutions for 5g evolution. Innovative SDA can realize flexible software configuration of 4t4r multi sector or 8t8r three sector. The primary antenna investment can flexibly support 2G / 3G / 4G / 5G three sector and multi sector coexistence. Network expansion and 5g evolution do not need to replace the antenna to protect customer investment. As the industry's first dual band 8t8r RRU, it also supports FDD 1.8GHz and 2.1GHz, saving tower space and rent. In addition, the module supports power sharing between different frequency bands and systems, which can improve the user experience of the community.

Dmitriy sivkov, director of MTS Moscow development department, said: "MTs in Russia aims to bring users the best communication experience and improve the quality of life through leading technology. The commercial effect of smart 8t8r effectively improves MTS wireless user experience, protects network investment, and provides more and better choices for network construction. MTS hopes to explore more technological breakthroughs and incubate with Huawei to build the best network. "
