Nokia expands GSM success with GSM 800 to secure solid evolution to 3G
February 06, 2001
Nokia is to further expand on the global success of GSM with the introduction of GSM 800 technology. This enables both TDMA and TDMA/GSM operators to launch GSM services on 800 MHz frequencies, with an evolution path to 3G services with EDGE and WCDMA. Offering GSM enhanced with EDGE brings in new 3G opportunities in the 800 MHz band with full global roaming between the Americas, Europe and Asia.
With this announcement Nokia brings benefits to operators and mobile users around the world, enabling global GSM/EDGE 800/900/1800 and 1900 MHz coverage and roaming. In addition to GSM/EDGE on the 800 MHz band Nokia has already committed to GSM/EDGE deliveries for the 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands.
The introduction of GSM 800 means operators can offer voice and highly successful GSM services on the 800 MHz band. GSM and TDMA networks using 800MHz can be enhanced with EDGE (Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution) for the evolution to 3G services. 800MHz system deliveries are expected to start during the second half of this year. 800MHz based TDMA is currently deployed in the Americas and parts of Asia.
"GSM800 will be ideal for wide coverage areas where 800MHz bands are available. GSM 800 will open up completely new markets through expanding the GSM technology to all major frequency bands. In addition, it brings the era of true mobile multimedia a step closer, by offering evolution to EDGE and WCDMA capabilities," says Jukka Auramo, Vice President, Marketing and Sales, IP Mobility Networks, Nokia Networks.
As the same GPRS core technology and service creation platforms will be used on 800MHz as well as on other GSM bands, applications and services created globally are easy to adopt, in order ensure fast revenue generation.
A major benefit of GSM 800 is that it enables existing TDMA operators as well as new GSM entrants to benefit from the global success of GSM. In addition, current GSM 1800 and 1900 operators can reduce their network expenditures by reduced coverage and capacity costs on the 800 MHz band. Standardization work for GSM and EDGE on 800 MHz has been completed by all major standardisation bodies.
