Third-generation radio access standards
Regional standardization bodies and members of the telecommunications industry have established a global scenario—composed of four optional modes—for the third generation of radio access standards. |
Toward third-generation mobile multimedia communication
During the next decade, the information society will evolve into a globally networked economy—a development that is being shaped by the convergence of computing, communication and broadcasting technologies. |
Adaptive base-station antenna arrays
Ericsson and cooperating operators have tested adaptive antennas in live GSM and TDMA networks, proving that these systems enable operators to increase the capacity of their mobile communication networks. Increased gain also enables operators to extend coverage from a compact antenna installation. |
Enhancing cellular network capacity with adaptive antennas
Adaptive antennas make up an attractive solution that can be implemented in a practical, cost-effective, step-by-step process. In GSM networks adaptive antennas and frequency-hopping techniques have the potential to increase capacity by nearly 300% at hot spots. In TDMA networks adaptive antennas and downlink power control can reduce the frequency reuse pattern. |
Messaging-over-IP—A network for messaging and information services
Ericsson has developed a new messaging solution, called Messaging-over-IP, that uses Internet technology to handle, in an integrated and easy-to-use manner, all types of messages, including voice, video and text. |
APZ 212 30—Ericsson’s new high-capacity AXE central processor
The APZ 212 30 is a completely new central processor for the AXE system that combines performance features with state-of-the-art processor architecture and innovative design. Being fully compatible with existing applications and installed hardware, the processor can be used in new installations and for upgrading the system execution and memory capacity of previously installed systems. |
TelORB—The distributed communications operating system
TelORB is a distributed operating system for large-scale, embedded, real-time applications that require non-stop operation. It is composed of a modern OS kernel, real-time database, software-configuration control, and an associated development environment. |
