NTT DoCoMo and Fujitsu to Showcase 3G FOMA Services in Europe
October 24, 2003
NTT DoCoMo and Fujitsu signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly
showcase third-generation (3G) FOMA mobile communication services in France.
Under the agreement, the companies will establish a base station in France
that will be connected to DoCoMo's FOMA network in Japan through an international
private line. The demonstration will be based in a showroom of Alcatel,
Fujitsu's 3G partner, in the suburbs of Paris. It will enable Europeans
to directly experience DoCoMo's groundbreaking FOMA, the world's first
commercial 3G mobile communications service based on W-CDMA technology.
The showroom will be established in November 2003 and be in operation
for one year. DoCoMo, as part of providing access to its FOMA network
for the demonstration, will set up a radio network controller to connect
the international line with the network. Fujitsu will provide the FOMA
handsets and base station and, together with Alcatel, will set up and
operate the showroom. 3G systems have been developed by Evolium SAS, a
joint venture company established by Fujitsu and Alcatel.
European visitors will be able to use 3G handsets available commercially
in Japan to experience FOMA's rich features, such as videophone, i-mode®
mobile internet, i-motion™ sound and video-clip transmission, "Multiaccess"
simultaneous voice/data communications, superior voice quality and high-speed
data transmission.
By exposing visitors to 3G mobile communications through hands-on demonstrations,
the project is expected to generate strong interest in the highly advanced
FOMA service and thereby lay the groundwork for a successful introduction
of 3G services in Europe.
