ZTE wins two prestigious awards at MWC in Barcelona

Xinhua, February 24, 2016 Adjust font size:

Chinese telecommunication giant, ZTE won two prestigious awards at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) which is currently held in Barcelona.

Tuesday saw ZTE win the Best Mobile Technology Breakthrough Award and the Outstanding Overall Mobile Technology Award for its Pre5G massive MIMO technology.

Pre5G massive MIMO technology aims at improving the efficiency of the inalambric spectrum and improves network capacity.

In a commercial network, the average single-carrier peak rate of Pre5G Massive MIMO exceeds 400 Mbps and increases spectral efficiency by four to six times as compared with that of existing 4G networks.

Pre5G Massive MIMO uses beamforming technology to expand from 2D to 3D coverage, while adapting well to different environments, such as high-rise buildings, hotspot macro coverage, stadium coverage, and last-mile scenarios in order to dramatically improves overall network quality.

Waiman Lam, from ZTE's Marketing Department, told Xinhua on Monday that the company was optimistic of winning one of the awards, as it had done in 2015.

Last year saw ZTE win the prize for Best Mobile Enabled Consumer Electronics Device for its ZTE Smart Projector.

The 2016 MWC has seen ZTE present its ZTE Blade V7 and ZTE Blade V7 lite smartphones and an intelligent portable projector, the Spro Plus.

The MWC is the most influential gathering in the world mobile industry, with this year even bringing together 2,100 exhibitors and around 94,000 visitors between Feb. 22 and 25. Endit
