OREANDA-NEWS. Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd. today announced that it has developed the world's first technology to optimize the allocation of wireless base stations for LTE-Advanced. This design technology determines the ideal placement of base stations through simulations to ensure a smooth communications environment for users.

Data traffic now makes up the bulk of mobile communications, creating a need for design methods that can allocate base stations for optimal communications speeds. But with coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission, which is expected to be a part of the emerging communications standard LTE-Advanced, there is no confirmed method for rapidly calculating the user's communications speed, which is a barrier to designing base station allocation for LTE-Advanced. Fujitsu Laboratories has now developed an algorithm that can rapidly calculate user communications speeds, even with CoMP.

When base stations are allocated using this technology, the same communications speeds can be attained as with other methods, but with 30% fewer base stations, while resolving connection difficulties in mobile communications.
