Industry predicts 21 Mbps to be next mobile broadband baseline
Mobile broadband is continuing to grow at a fast pace due to the ever increasing introduction of new technologies, new networks, new devices and competitive innovation in the market. In July, the Global mobile Suppliers Association (gsa) announced that 7.2 Mbps had become the new baseline for mobile broadband globally, since at that time half of the HSPA networks in commercial service globally were capable of supporting a peak downlink data speed of 7.2 Mbps or higher, supported by almost 600 user devices capable of 7.2 Mbps or higher which had been launched in the market. Some HSPA systems support a peak downlink data speed up to 14.4 Mbps. more

GSA Confirms Near 50% Increase in EDGE Network Launches
A new survey by the gsa has confirmed that there are now 287 mobile network operators in 142 countries deploying EDGE - Enhanced Data rates for Global Evolution. This compares to 204 commitments one year ago, representing over 40% growth. There are 111 EDGE network commitments in Europe, followed by the Americas/Caribbean (84), Middle East/Africa (50), and APAC (42). more

The Global mobile Suppliers Association has announced its support for the new 3GPP study items on EDGE Evolution. EDGE Evolution is envisaged to bring on average 2-3 fold data speeds compared to EDGE rates today, higher voice and data capacity and improved spectral efficiency. Many operators are deploying a combined WCDMA/EDGE network strategy for delivery of 3G services. EDGE Evolution is a natural complement to HSPA (High Speed Packet Access) which will enhance WCDMA data rates and capacity. more
