Nokia achieves world's first 1xEV-DV high speed data call
August 28, 2003
Nokia announced that the world's first cdma2000 1xEV-DV high-speed packet
data phone call was completed at Nokia's CDMA product creation center
in San Diego. The call, achieving a peak data rate of 3.09 Mbps, was made
between a test set based on a commercially available Nokia 2285 handset
upgraded with a Nokia 1xEV-DV chipset and a Racal Instruments, Wireless
Solutions Group, 1xEV-DV basestation emulator. This chipset is the world's
first to support complete 1xEV-DV Release C functionality.
Approved in mid-2002 by the TIA and the ITU as an official 3G standard,
cdma2000 1xEV-DV, also known as IS-2000 Release C, delivers a maximum
forward link (base station to handset) data rate that is 20 times greater
than the peak rate deployed in today's IS-2000 Release 0 CDMA networks.
Furthermore, IS-2000 Release C provides typical user throughput of 1 Mbps
in a 1.25 MHz frequency channel and system-wide throughput that ranges
from 420 Kbps to 1.7 Mbps depending upon traffic and channel conditions.
"In less than one year, Nokia has led the development of the 1xEV-DV
specification from an approved standard to a functional handset that can
be used for infrastructure lab interoperability testing and subsequently,
operator field testing," said Adam Gould, vice president of technology
management and strategy, CDMA for Nokia Mobile Phones. "Our experience
in CDMA technology uniquely positions Nokia to support incumbent cdma2000
operators transitioning to the 1xEV-DV standard."
Nokia continues to contribute to the continuing evolution of 1xEV-DV
technology as 3GPP2 finalizes specification of IS-2000 Release D later
this year. Release D adds a higher data rate capability on the reverse
link (handset to base station) than what is available with today's CDMA
networks and includes all of the features and functionality of previous
IS- 2000 releases including the high-speed forward link capabilities of
Release C, enabling quality of service dependent applications such as
mobile online gaming.
"The success of Sprint PCS Vision services is continuing to create new
demand for increasingly data intensive applications," said Oliver Valente,
Vice President of Technology Development at Sprint. "As one of the original
supporters of 1xEV-DV technology, Sprint PCS clearly understands the power
and practicality that it can deliver to both operators and end users."
