Large national and international carriers are starting to cooperate to define a 4G cellular standard. The Next Generation Mobile Network Cooperation brings together GSM and CDMA operators from around the world to define the requirements for 4G networks. Founding members include Sprint Nextel, T-Mobile, Vodafone, KPN and Orange. NTT DoCoMo and China Mobile have also joined the group. The group is establishing a company in the UK that will begin development of a fully packet switched network in July. One of the technological goals for the group is to design a smooth transition from all 3G technologies including UMTS and EV-DO to the new standard. The group has a set 2010 as the launch date for commercial networks based on the new standard.
