Ericsson and AT&T make first 3G UMTS call in America
December 4, 2002
Ericsson and AT&T Wireless today completed the first WCDMA/UMTS
call in a live network environment in the Americas. With initial
packet data speeds up to 384 kbps, the call demonstrates true 3G
capabilities, which include quick downloads of such bandwidth-demanding
applications as E-mail with attachments and streaming audio and
video.
The joint effort is part of a trial of the first 1900 MHz UMTS/WCDMA
system in the Americas, which will have more than 100 cell sites
in the Dallas area by the end of the year. Ericsson is providing
the complete WCDMA/UMTS network -- the core network, the radio access
network and mobile terminals. The small-sized Sony Ericsson test
units used are based on technology developed by Ericsson Mobile
Platforms.
"We will continue moving forward in our quest to provide customers
with the most advanced wireless services in the world," said Rod
Nelson, chief technology officer for AT&T Wireless. "There is a
tremendous level of support by vendors, carriers and developers
in bringing true 3G service to the United States."
"It's really exciting to take what we've learned from our laboratory
trials and apply those lessons to a live network environment," said
Angel Ruiz, president and chief executive officer, Ericsson Inc.
"In other parts of the world, we've seen live tests before in the
2 GHz band. But this is a landmark in the development of UMTS/WCDMA
in the 1900 MHz frequencies and its progress in the Americas."
