China Mobile Guangxi Branch is testing Ericsson’s City Site radio solution in its commercial GSM network on a trial basis in Nanning, Guangxi.
Ericsson’s City Site, which has been deployed with the standard RBS6601 base station, has an integrated Omni Antenna covering a small area. In addition, the City Site has also been equipped with functions such as electronic advertising, clock and public information inquires with touch-screen technology.
Ericsson said its City Site design has fewer limitations for site selection compared with standard radio base station, as it can be deployed in crowded areas, and is suitable for a variety of places, such as railway stations, business districts, schools, parks, squares, and main avenues.
