Multiple antenna technology is considered as one of the few that has the potential to provide relatively large gains in wireless mobile network. The recent progress of using multiple antenna technology in commercial LTE network in China was discussed. By focusing on LTE-FDD network
details of simulation results and measurements from commercial networks were provided to demonstrate the obtainable gains in the real world when compared with theoretical predictions. Based on the current state of art
an outlook at the future trends of the multiple antenna technology with discussions on road maps
challenges and standard progress was given.
