We believe this confirms other independent measurements and leading operator reports that Ericsson has the best network performance in the industry. “We are also the only vendor that has commercial Antenna Integrated Radio products, which deploy quickly and bring further radio coverage benefits that enable operators to provide higher speeds and handle more traffic cost effectively. Ericsson will continue to show leadership in services; for example, we are the leading vendor of VoLTE and LTE Broadcast.” President of Ericsson Malaysia and Sri Lanka Todd Ashton said: “LTE is becoming the fastest developing technology in the mobile communications history due to the fast speeds and high quality user experience it offers. We anticipate that LTE will cover approximately 60% of the world population in six years. We are pleased to be in the forefront of this development.” Ericsson is present in high traffic markets, and of the top 10 LTE operators ranked by LTE subscriptions in May, 2013, Ericsson powers 9 of these top 10 LTE operators’ live networks. Ericsson is the prime driver of open standards and has had the most significant impact on the LTE specifications released to date. Ericsson expects to hold 25% of all essential patents for LTE, making it the largest patent holder in the industry. Ericsson is the industry leader in managed services, managing networks that serve over 800 million subscribers globally.
