| Complete Standards Compliant 3G WCDMA Mobile Terminal Solution |
|
17th February 2003 |
|
Inset is Dr. Alain Briancon, CTO of InterDigital who will be speaking at 3GSM World Congress. The WCDMA solution demonstrations feature the Company's standards compliant, end-to-end Wideband Time Division Duplex (WTDD) system and a complete WCDMA solution for mobile terminals, including InterDigital's Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) software protocol stack product. The WTDD system will operate point-to-point over a fully functioning radio network controller (RNC), Node B and end-user terminal device (UE) configured for a mobile environment and will demonstrate call setup as well as a 384 kbps streaming audio and video call. WTDD, which is WCDMA for the unpaired spectrum and a technology that integrates seamlessly with FDD, supports both voice and data in the unpaired spectrum allocated in 3G licenses worldwide. WTDD is uniquely suited for data-rich and multi-media applications. Together, FDD and TDD form a complete solution as companion, underlying air interface technologies that enable WCDMA-based products to efficiently deliver voice, data and multimedia applications. Co-developed by InterDigital and Infineon, the WCDMA FDD multi-mode software protocol stack product for terminal devices is a standards compliant solution that supports Infineon's 3G baseband processor and also is portable to other baseband processors. The Company is marketing the protocol stack, which interfaces with existing GSM/GPRS hardware and software. InterDigital
also will launch SmartRRM(SM), a complete suite of advanced radio resource
management algorithms and advanced simulation tools that maximizes TDD
performance and lowers deployment costs. SmartRRM allocates radio resources
to suit the character of the offered traffic, optimizing connections,
network stability, connection reliability, system capacity, terminal
battery consumption, and overall quality of service. --
Dr. Alain Briancon, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer
and Chair of the GSM Association's Associate Member Interest Group -
Understanding the Business Case for TDD, Wireless Access Track B, 16:30
on Tuesday, February 18. Dr. Briancon will discuss the findings of a recently released study outlining the economic benefits that TDD technology offers to operators for different deployment options and marketing scenarios, namely hot zone coverage, wide area broadband deployments, and capacity enhancement. As part of his presentation, Dr. Briancon will highlight the effectiveness of WTDD in supporting high revenue traffic profiles expected in the UMTS 3G environment - specifically dense urban, urban and suburban locations - as well as examine the economic implications of using WTDD technology and its integration with FDD within the WCDMA environment. Mr. Nolan will present on the subject of Wireless LAN and potential operator deployment scenarios. |

PRESS RELEASES |
The
opportunities offered by telematics and M2M are endless. Automotive, fleet
and freight, utilities, oil & gas, offices, homes, vending and POS
are among the many application areas. ARC Group expects the worldwide solutions market to be worth in excess of US$100bn by 2007. |
The
Datasweep solution provides Powerwave with real-time access to production
and quality data throughout a product's lifecycle to help drive continuous
and predictable quality. |
InterDigital
Communications will demonstrate its Wideband CDMA (WCDMA) air interface
solutions at the 2003 3GSM World Congress in Cannes, France (February
17-21, 2003). |
This
complete UMTS solution has demonstrated UMTS and GSM voice calls and high-speed
data calls-including both UMTS and GPRS. The PCI5110 has achieved UMTS
data calls at 64, 128, and 384 kbps. |
The
rapid development of dual mode GSM/GPRS and WCDMA handsets is a significant
step closer following the introduction of Zyray Wireless' SPINNERchip
1.0 WCDMA baseband processor solution. |
Our
rendering engine is real-time, and the XDA is powerful enough to display
full-motion animation, so the only delay really is in the streaming of
the content, which requires a very small amount of bandwidth, especially
for GPRS or 3G." |
Has
the last year's downturn for the wireless industry and delays in 3G fundamentally
changed the operator's options for 3G evolution? |
At
the 3GSM World Congress, Whereonearth will, for the first time, allow
conference delegates to experience live Where-based services in real-time,
both on the exhibition floor and on their mobile devices. |
