Your page During a press conference on Linderud in Oslo on Monday, demonstrated Netcom what they call the next generation mobile network – 4.5g. The company had also invited Minister of Transport Ketil Solvik-Olsen to shed luster on the occasion.
– Today we will try to set a world record for data transmission in the mobile network. We hope to reach 1 gigabit per second, says Norway boss in Telia Sonera and Netcom, Abraham Foss.
Background: How Does 4G?
Combines four frequency bands
To achieve this they use a special technique called “carrier aggregation”. It combines all four frequency bands company has licenses to use, 800, 1800, 2100 and 2600MHz simultaneously. And it is this technique called 4.5g.
– We use all 800, 1800 and 2600MHz band, and the two blocks constituting 2100MHz band, says Netcom coverage director Tommy Johansen DinSide.
Not the same as 4G +
Director of Coverage in Netcom, Tommy Johansen.
The news comes eight months after we became acquainted with the predecessor, 4G +, for the first time. It combines two frequency bands simultaneously, giving a theoretical maximum speed of 300Mbps.

– You can compare 4.5g with a highway. 4G is one file, 4G + is two files, while 4.5g whole 5 files, says Johansen.
TOPIC: New Technologies
The equipment missing
For the moment there is not commercially available equipment that can utilize such a speed 4G network. The only phones that support 4.5g, is according Netcom Huawei Ascend Mate 8 (heading) and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge – but these are limited to a maximum of 450 megabits per second, according to Netcom.
Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and Huawei Ascend Mate 8 supports 4.5g.
– Considering how quickly it came mobiles with support for 4G +, rains we that it does not take long before it becomes a good choice also of equipment supporting 4.5g, says communications director at Netcom, Henning Lunde, to DinSide.

Up 1.2 gigabits per second
In lack of equipment the company had therefore ahead of the record attempt set up a test rig consisting of multiple PCs and software TCP Monitor Plus. During the official test they reached a download speed of 950Mbit per second. It should, according Netcom be official world record for data transmission in a 4G network that is in commercial operation.
– However, we have measured over 1.2 gigabits per second at night, when the load on the network is as lowest, reveals Johansen.
That means 150 MB per second, or 30-40 MP3 songs in good quality on a single second, or an evening film in good quality at a very few seconds.
How many can get this speed once?
– Here we are talking about leveraging 4G technology to the maximum and route all availability to one device. But 4.5g also enables more with compatible equipment can get good speeds simultaneously, says Johansen.
