Evolving from cdmaOne to third-generation systems
Through the acquisition and development of industry-leading CDMA expertise and resources, Ericsson has demonstrated strong commitment to the growth and evolution of IS-95-based CDMA systems. Ericsson has a strong product offering and a comprehensive five-step plan for migrating CDMA systems into third- generation systems. |
Third-generation TDMA
The TDMA and GSM systems have chosen the same EDGE radio-access and GPRS packet-switched core network technologies to provide third-generation services in existing spectrum. EDGE can be deployed in two modes in TDMA systems: Classic and COMPACT. The COMPACT system supports UWCC requirements for third-generation services with high spectral efficiency and initial deployment within less than 1 MHz of spectrum. |
Business solutions for mobile e-commerce
As the world wakes up to the huge potential of mobile e-commerce, mobile operators and service providers will have the unique opportunity to establish a lead in the market. The right combination of mobile systems, Internet, payment, and security technologies now exists to make mobile e-commerce a commercial reality. Ericsson’s Mobile e-Pay solutions enable operators and service providers to generate new classes of service based on each user’s geographical location and personal profile. |
The RBS 2206—A flexible ticket to third-generation wireless systems
The migration from second-generation to third-generation mobile systems is one of the core issues facing the industry as it enters into the new telecoms world. Ericsson is committed to making this migration as seamless as possible for the operator. One of Ericsson’s cornerstone products is a new, indoor macro-base station—the RBS 2206. |
Communications security in an all-IP world
The increased use of the IP suite creates a strong need for comprehensive security solutions. Today, malicious users can easily eavesdrop IP traffic, redirect traffic, introduce false packets, modify packets, mount denial-of-service attacks, and introduce harmful software into systems. One way of countering these attacks is to maintain strict control of access to the network by means of firewalls and secure login procedures. To complement access control and obtain the necessary level of security, the traffic itself must be protected. Cryptography provides the techniques needed to build secure communications. Protection mechanisms authenticate users, encrypt packets and protect them from being modified. |
HIPERLAN type 2 for broadband wireless communication
The aim of several standardization efforts, including GPRS, EDGE, and UMTS, is to meet the requirements being put on wireless data communication. The HIPERLAN/2 standard specifies a short-range (150 m), high-speed (up to 54 Mbit/s) radio-access system that can be used globally in the 5 GHz band. This attractive standard enables low-cost devices in a system that yields high throughput with QoS support. |
