SK Telecom announced that it was awarded
"Outstanding LTE Contribution" and "Outstanding Overall Mobile
Technology – The CTO's Choice' at the GSMA Global Mobile Awards 2014,
the industry's biggest and the most prestigious award.
This year, SK Telecom was recognized for its technology leadership
gained through continued developments of advanced network technologies
including LTE-Advanced and contribution to set the global standards for
LTE and LTE-Advanced services.
'Outstanding LTE Contribution' recognizes the company that developed
the most innovative and groundbreaking LTE technologies over the past
year. This year's recognition is meaningful in that SK Telecom received
this award for two years in a row. The company received 'Outstanding LTE
Contribution' for its '4G LTE with PETA Solution' last year.
Moreover, SK Telecom was chosen as the winner of the 'Outstanding
Overall Mobile Technology - The CTO's Choice' award. The award, chosen
by a distinguished panel of judges consisted of Chief Technology
Officers of 16 mobile operators around the globe, is presented to the
overall winner from six winners ('Best Mobile Infrastructure', 'Best
Mobile Technology Breakthrough', 'Best Cloud Based technology for
Mobile', 'Best Mobile Identity, Safeguard & Security
Products/Solutions', 'Best Solution for Growing Smaller or Independent
Networks', 'Outstanding LTE contribution') under the category of Best
Mobile Technology.
Since launching the nation's first LTE in July 2011 and world's first LTE-Advanced in June 2013,
SK Telecom has been constantly upgrading the quality of its LTE and
LTE-Advanced networks. At present, it offers 150Mbps Wideband LTE using
20MHz bandwidth (1.8GHz band) and 150Mbps LTE-Advanced through
"10MHz(800MHz) + 10MHz(1.8GHz)" Carrier Aggregation (CA).
As of the end
of 2013, SK Telecom's LTE and LTE-Advanced subscribers take up over 50
percent of its total mobile subscriber base.
Moreover, it was the world's first to demonstrate 225Mbps LTE-Advanced via "20MHz+10MHz" CA in November 2013
and 300Mbps LTE-Advanced via tri-band ("10MHz+20MHz+ 10MHz") CA in
January, 2014. At MWC, it is demonstrating LTE-Advanced tri-band CA
("20MHz+20MHz+20MHz").
"SK Telecom is truly honored to receive two prestigious awards -
'Outstanding LTE Contribution' and 'Outstanding Overall Mobile
Technology - The CTO's Choice' – at GSMA Global Mobile Awards 2014 as
they recognize our contribution to the global mobile telecommunications
industry through leading network technologies. We will continue to make
strenuous efforts to develop innovative technologies powerful enough to
enhance the quality of people's lives." said Alex Jingsung Choi,
