Nokia ready for CDMA2000 1xEV-DV operator trials in 2003
January 28, 2003
Nokia confirms that evolution of its CDMA2000 mobile station chipset
supporting IS-2000 Release C (also known as 1xEV-DV) is on schedule
for field trials with CDMA operators during the 2nd half of 2003.
Nokia believes that 1xEV-DV represents the logical next step for
incumbent CDMA operators upgrading their existing CDMA2000 1X (IS-2000
Release 0) networks. Already a major supplier of IS-95 and CDMA2000
1x handsets based on Nokia's own chipsets, Nokia plans to develop
and market new terminals based on Nokia-designed CDMA2000 1x EV-DV
chipsets.
"CDMA operators must carefully choose the next step in evolving
their networks and maximizing existing investments from several
possible evolution options," said Adam Gould, chief technology officer
of CDMA for Nokia Mobile Phones. "The key considerations when choosing
an evolution path should be efficient spectrum usage, maximum deployment
flexibility, backwards compatibility for legacy handsets and support
for the broadest range of applications including those requiring
simultaneous voice and high speed data. For operators committed
to a CDMA2000 1X migration path, 1xEV-DV is the best evolution option
to satisfy these considerations."
CDMA2000 1xEV-DV offers the flexibility to dynamically balance
voice and data traffic by allocating bandwidth on demand and allows
for the performance of two high-value tasks simultaneously on a
single RF section device. Unlike other CDMA standards like 1xEV-DO,
1xEV-DV creates a more attractive cost structure for operators with
its combination of flexible network resource allocation and its
ability to support concurrent voice and data services.
"Nokia is aggressively moving forward with 1xEV-DV technology development
in preparation for the data-intensive products and applications
that will be launched in the near future. 1xEV-DV deployment will
coincide with increased demand by mobile users for the kinds of
data rates it has to offer," continues Gould. "The applications
and services now becoming available on 1X networks are creating
increased expectations for future service offerings by 1X operators
that only evolution to 1xEV-DV can satisfy."
Nokia is currently in discussions with multiple CDMA stakeholders
to cooperate in 1xEV-DV interoperability testing and field trials.
