Ericsson to Partner Bharti Airtel on 4G LTE Network
Swedish communications technology company Ericsson said on Thursday it has signed a deal to partner Bharti Airtel to offer 4G network technology, which is in its infancy in India.

"Airtel has selected Ericsson to be its partner in offering LTE (Long-Term Evolution, also marketed as 4G LTE) in India," Chris Houghton, head of Ericsson Region India, said in New Delhi at a company-organised event to launch the product solution.

LTE, is a standard for wireless communication of high-speed data for mobile phones and data terminals.

Bharti Airtel and Aircel have launched 4G services in a few cities on the 2300MHz band (TDD-LTE standard), while Reliance Jio Infocomm, the only company with a pan-India license, has not yet launched its services.

The Aditya Birla Group's Idea Cellular has inked a solutions data charging deal for Ericsson's Evolved IP Network (EIN) that delivers subscriber broadband services, such as triple-play, 2G, 3G, 4G and Wi-Fi over a unified IP transport.
