Australia's biggest telecommunications service provider Telstra has turned on LTE-Broadcast technology nationally for its mobile network and says customers who are using Samsung Galaxy S8 and S9 devices will benefit from better HD streaming when they use the AFL Live official app.

Telstra and Ericsson will launch LTE broadcast services in existing Telstra Media services this year, with a national rollout in 2018.

At the TV Connect 2016 conference in London, four major mobile network operators in Australia, the US, the UK and South Korea have joined forces to create the LTE-Broadcast Alliance.

Telstra has made some interesting announcements at its Mobile World Congress press event - a trial of Ericsson’s 5G technologies for the 2018 Commonwealth Games, and some capital cities getting 1Gbps Cat 16 LTE later this year.

Telstra is claiming a ‘world first’ stadium trial of Long Term Evolution Broadcast (LTE-B) technology during tonight’s T20 International cricket match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
