Wireless LAN Bandwidth For GSM GPRS/3G Networksdate: February 12, 2002 Continuing to expand its leadership in the GSM market space, interWAVE(R) Communications, a pioneer in compact cellular communications systems and broadband wireless data networks, today announced its 802.WAVE system that bridges the bandwidth gap and provides secure GPRS/ 3G wireless Local Area Network (LAN) convergence. interWAVE's 802.WAVE solution delivers wireless LAN speed with 802.11 technology in standard GSM network deployments, offering authentication and roaming capabilities. "In today's market, our 802.WAVE solution is the right bandwidth accelerator for operators delivering high-speed GPRS/3G services," said Dr. Priscilla Lu, chairman and CEO of interWAVE. "As the most cost-effective, high-bandwidth solution in the market, we provide GSM operators with 802.11 networking speed for high bandwidth-intensive applications such as video streaming and audio streaming, and for downloading large files and attachments. GSM operators can transparently attach 802.11 LANs seamlessly to their GSM networks, giving subscribers high-performance, wireless broadband services in airports, hotels, business parks and/or office buildings." Addressing the traditional security concerns surrounding 802.11 networks, interWAVE developed its patented 802.WAVE solution to ensure interoperability between the IP and GSM standards to deliver maximum network security, authentication and encryption. With this solution, interWAVE leverages the pervasive adoption of 802.11 networks and uses it to enhance the delivery and availability of high-bandwidth services for GSM operators as an additional option in high-bandwidth, tariffed services. As a result, interWAVE's solution enables GSM operators to capture an already established user base, transparently directing them to GSM broadband services.
