DoCoMo Opens 4G Research Center in China

NTT DoCoMo has announced that it will establish a research center in China's capital, to research and promote the advancement of mobile communication technologies for 4G and beyond. Capitalized at US$5.3 million, the new wholly owned subsidiary of NTT DoCoMo will be set up within this year.

China has aggressively committed to 4G research and development, and is expected to evolve the requisite new standards. DoCoMo expects the envisioned laboratory to promote advanced mobile communications technology in both countries in line with the joint statement issued at the People's Republic of China-Japan-Republic of Korea Information and Telecommunication Ministerial Meeting held last September in Marrakech."
