White Paper Plots Mobile Telcos' Route
to 3G - "Evolution not revolution" brings greatest ROI
January 9, 2001,
Reading, England
A new white paper, released today, gives the first insight
to the technical challenges facing mobile telecom companies
and handset manufacturers as license holders struggle toward
3rd Generation (3G) mobile phone services. "GSM to 3G: Evolution
or Revolution?" takes a pragmatic look at the technologies
and standards proposed by the industry, plotting the best
route through the maze.
The paper is jointly authored by Adax, the world's leading
supplier of signalling controllers and software that provide
the foundation for telecoms networks, and Hughes Software
Systems, a leading developer of communication technologies
and applications. It is aimed at senior managers within the
telcos, offering a jargon-free analysis of migration options.
The complexity of the migration path and the number of intermediate
standards is cited as the major challenge. Adding WAP to GSM
services is a temporary first step to adding data services
that will progress via GPRS, HSCSD and EDGE to true 3G and
beyond.
