Chinese propose three options for the adoption of 3G
January 23, 2003
Chinese experts responsible for planning the rollout of 3G wireless
networks in China have submitted three options to the State Council
for consideration.
The experts suggested the government should award four 3G licenses
to two mobile operators - China Mobile and China Unicom - and to
the two fixed line operators China Telecom and China Netcom.
The first proposal would allow operators total freedom to deploy
any 3G standard.
The second recommendation would see China Telecom and China Netcom
being awarded licenses for the Chinese TD-SCDMA technology. China
Mobile would then deploy WCDMA and China Unicom to implement CDMA2000.
In the final option, China Telecom and China Netcom are restricted
to just one standard but would still need to deploy TD-SCDMA in
certain districts as the main network system.
The first option is not expected to be chosen as the Chinese invested
millions of yuan in developing the TD-SCDMA standard and would want
some operators to adopt the technology. Datang and Siemens are the
developers of the technology and said it would be commercially ready
for mid-2004. The developers claimed the TD-SCDMA is more efficient
then the two other 3G standards, WCDMA and CDMA2000.
