Nortel and LG Electronics are First in World to Demonstrate Mobile LTE Handover

Nortel press release
Nortel and LG Electronics have taken LTE from the labs to the streets to complete the world's first mobile LTE live air handover. Engineers at Nortel's Research and Development Centre of Excellence in Ottawa showed streaming HD video on an early LTE mobile device from LG Electronics while driving at speeds of 100 kms per hour and moving between coverage sites. This advancement shows the capabilities of Nortel's LTE solution in real world conditions and brings it closer to commercial readiness, which is expected by the end of 2009.
