New Technology Could Double 3G Network Voice Call Capacity
Finnish operator Elisa and Nokia Siemens Networks have demonstrated a new technology that allows operators to increase voice capacity of their 3G networks, potentially up to double the baseline capacity. The trial call was conducted in Elisa's live 3G network using R&D prototype devices supplied by Nokia. In technical terms the demonstration was of the world's first circuit switched call over a high speed packet access network (CSoHSPA). more

Recommendations for Operators on QoS Interoperability and Policy Management
3G Americas has published a white paper that defines the challenges faced by operators today as demands intensify for converged services and service roaming. The paper outlines and recommends a policy-based mechanism for exchange service and network information such as QoS for providing end-to-end and real-time services. The policy management framework is a key underlying technology for roaming service and QoS control. more

Ericsson to demonstrate up to 28Mbit/s HSPA
Ericsson is performing the world's first (High Speed Packet Access) HSPA demonstration with Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technology during the CTIA Wireless 2006 show this week. The demo is based on Ericsson's commercial Radio Base Station. HSPA with MIMO can double the speed in the downlink up to 28 Mbps. Part of the WCDMA evolution, HSPA is a combination of HSDPA in the downlink and Enhanced Uplink in the uplink, both of which are specified in 3GPP Release 5/6. HSPA provides data rates up to 14 Mbps in the downlink and 5.8 Mbps in the uplink. more
