Sprint
Nextel announced its plans to develop and deploy the first fourth generation
(4G) nationwide broadband mobile network. The 4G wireless broadband
network will use the mobile WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave
Access) IEEE 802.16e-2005 technology standard. |
| TensorComm announced its 75th patent filing related to interference cancellation. This addition to TensorComm's IP portfolio addresses the application of its Interference Cancellation Technology (ICT(TM)) to networks deploying MIMO. ICT is the first field-proven and most cost-effective solution for overcoming interference in wireless networks. TensorComm's ICT is specifically designed to improve the performance and data throughput of 3G networks (CDMA2000(R)1X/1xEV-DO and WCDMA/HSDPA) and is now positioned to apply the same types of benefits to emerging 4G networks. |
This
report researches 4G technologies and markets, which are evolving already
at the present time. Early prognosis that 4G will start commercialize
not before 2010 are now reconsidered, and several 4G ingredients have
been already introduced either for the commercial use, or on the trial
basis. |
Nortel
today announced it is co-sponsoring a Research Chair at the University
of Waterloo focused on technologies that will help shape the future
of wireless networks. |
| LICENCES for the next generation of superfast mobile internet connections are to be put up for auction next year n raising billions for Gordon Brown, the UK Chancellor. |
Instead
of characterizing the evolution of 3G and 4G mobile technologies as
a battle to the death between species, the report highlights the potential
for complementarity between the various technologies which reside under
the 3G and 4G "umbrellas |
| It
evaluates the realistic capabilities of 3G LTE, in terms of throughput,
capacity, latency and cost per megabyte. By modelling a typical network,
it quantifies the practical gains that will be achieved by 3G LTE and
the service mixes that it will be able to support. It also evaluates
the benefits of additional spectrum for 3G LTE, such as the IMT-2000
extension bands. |
NTT
DoCoMo announced that it achieved 2.5Gbps packet transmission in the
downlink while moving at 20km/h. The fourth-generation (4G) radio access
field experiment took place in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture recently.

Mobile
operators and vendors will benefit throughout the decade no matter if
they are pursuing low-end or high-end mobile strategies, according to
a new study. |
| At
the Ericsson Strategy & Technology Summit in Shanghai, Ericsson's President and CEO Carl-Henric Svanberg said the growing demand for mobile content and the handset's emerging role as a media channel will pave the way for a faster deployment of 3G and HSDPA. |
| Samsung Electronics hosts the 3 rd annual Samsung 4G Forum 2005 at Jeju Island , Korea , from August 29 to 30. Around 140 high-profile industry representatives from 24 countries meet to discuss the key technologies for 4 th generation mobile communications. |
| The failing of WCDMA to deliver the true 3G experience has forced the industry to push ahead earlier than expected with the implementation of HSDPA and HSUPA. |
| "4G" doesn't just define a standard, it describes an environment were radio access methods will be able to interoperate to provide communications sessions that can seamlessly "hand-off" between them. More than any other technology, 4G will have a profound impact on the entire wireless landscape and the total value chain. It is never too early to understand it. |
| NTT DoCoMo announced it achieved 1Gbps real-time packet transmission in the downlink at the moving speed of about 20km/h in a field experiment on fourth-generation (4G) radio access |
| Major changes are coming to future cell phones, and end-users will get to decide which trends they like, and don't like. A new report has the early view of what these crucial end-users think about what's ahead. |
Seven.Five
is now ready to test high-speed data networks employing technologies
such as Ev/DO, HSDPA, UWB and OFDM. |
| The
global wireless industry is migrating to OFDM radio technology in the
wireless LAN, fixed broadband wireless, and mobile phone segments, a
transition that will take several years to complete. |
To
remain competitive, service providers must develop a wireless strategy
that coordinates offerings and networks between their wireline and wireless
broadband infrastructures. |
