Quote from the article: T-Mobile wrote. Qualcomm said its testing <http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=60001104452> shows that Wi-Fi access points often have better throughput when sharing a channel with LTE-U than when sharing a channel with another Wi-Fi access point.
Here's my comment: We'll duh. Two AP's on the same channel is something we try to avoid, because "It's Bad®". How about comparing throughput of an AP with no interference (Cause that's what we call two AP's on the same channel), and a AP with LTE-U on the same channel.
