Sprint aiming for 1 gigabit-per-second speeds

Sprint Corp. is aiming to offer its customers peak wireless speeds of 1 gigabit per second next year — about 100 times faster than most wireless services — in hopes it can boost its service reputation and attract more customers.

Sprint is employing three new wireless technologies — carrier aggregation, MIMO (multiple input, multiple output), and HPUE (high power user equipment) — that will help the struggling wireless carrier better use its vast trove of 2.5 gigahertz spectrum and reach that ultra-fast speed in 2017 and 2018, according to Chief Technology Officer John Saw.
