EDGE Continues to Dominate New Base Station Deployments in 2009
EDGE will dominate new base station deployments in 2009 with over 40% of new base station deployments, reports in-stat. The slowdown in the global economy is having an effect on EDGE base station deployments as operators push out deployments. There will be a slight decline in new EDGE base station deployments from 2008 to 2009, resulting in 2008 being the zenith of EDGE deployments. more

Solutions for Indoor Cell Coverage Could Boost 3G Services
One of the biggest challenges facing wireless subscribers is a lack of indoor coverage, reports in-stat. The timing of 3G service rollouts is making this problem more relevant, as carriers realize that 3G services will have limited success without addressing the indoor coverage issue, the high-tech market research firm says. The cost to address these shortcomings with traditional macro base station solutions is too high and not possible for most mobile operators. more

3G Uptake Heavily Influencing Cell Base Station Sales
Many factors impact base station demand, and the largest is the uptake and usage of 3G technology, reports in-stat. Should uptake of 3G services be light over the next several years, the only new base stations required would be those to support more subscribers and for replacement of old or broken base stations, the high-tech market research firm says. But, should 3G demand become heavy, the number of base stations required to quench this wireless demand could be large, with operators paying for new base stations with service revenues. more
