China Mobile Ltd., the world’s largest phone company by users, said its ongoing trial of fourth-generation TD-LTE network equipment is going smoothly and it has uncovered no issues with the technology.

The biggest bottleneck for adoption of the new standard is availability of devices, Chairman Xi Guohua said at the GSMA Mobile Asia Expo in Shanghai today. “If we have enough devices, we can build the base stations in a short period of time; we can upgrade our current technology to TD-LTE in a short period of time,” he said.
