T-Mobile to Boost 3G Speeds Inside Retail Stores

Published on: 9th December 2008

T-Mobile Netherlands is deploying a series of 3G repeaters inside its retail stores to try and boost the 3G data speeds for when customers seek a demonstration of their services. Nextivity is the supplier of the "smart repeaters".

"Most wireless subscribers know firsthand that brick, glass and other architectural elements can degrade the quality of their voice calls and offer less-than-peak data speeds when they are at home or at work," said Nextivity CEO Werner Sievers. "Our smart repeater technology is designed to overcome the most demanding indoor coverage challenges and increase the effective RF capacity of each base station."

The Nextivity solution works in harmony with a mobile operator's network to maximize the data rates and voice quality experienced by users while indoors. With advanced filtering, equalization and echo cancellation techniques, Nextivity's smart repeater delivers unprecedented in-building data rates and pervasive 3G connectivity. Nextivity smart repeaters dynamically sense and react to the wireless environments found in homes and businesses and can increase the available in-building bandwidth.

Designed with smart antenna technology and an intelligent onboard processor, Nextivity's smart repeaters continually seek out the best available signal and automatically adjust to maximize the signal gain to the user.
