In the recent 2G spectrum auction, Videocon won the spectrum for six circle which include including Haryana, Madhya Pradesh-Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, UP , Bihar and Jharkhand for Rs 2221 crore.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We will get spectrum in the month of January and we expect to roll out our LTE services in six circles by middle of 2013,&#8221; company&#8217;s Director and CEO Arvind Bali told reporters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The spectrum won by Videocon in the recent auction is paired and liberalised. This spectrum can be used to roll out next generation networks and services by adapting a highly spectrally efficient 4G technology LTE,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4G LTE<\/strong> provides ultra-high speed mobile internet access with a data transfer rate up to 100mbps. With 4G, heavy applications such as Maps, HD Video streaming, Online gaming etc can be done in a matter of seconds.<\/p>\n<p>To the mobile service providers, 4G enables them to achieve more efficiency using the same spectrum resources. \u201cNext-generation network technologies enable about 30 times more data capacity than a traditional 2G network,&#8221; said Arvind Bali.\u00a0The cost of data usage in 4G network is less than that of a 2G network that has been upgraded to 3G. &#8220;Per Mbps cost of LTE at 2.3GHz is much lesser even when compared with a brownfield 2G site that has been upgraded to 3G. It will be more so in the case of 1800MHz LTE deployment,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forget 3G, now it\u2019s time to think about 4G.Videocon Communication a part of Videocon Group announced the launch of their 4G Long Term Evaluation (LTE) services by the middle of next year.
