Manufacturers Receive Stay On Qualcomm Ban
T-Mob?
does anyone else see a comopany that is a little behind, or am I just a little blinded by who i work for?
at&t and T-Mobile will probably do LTE together and it looks like VZW is going to go to UMB route unless they decide to jump on the Wimax boat (which would make sense since South Korea is going it and their favorite manufacturer LG is from there)
HSPA in certain revisions are actually mentioned to be closer to 4G than 3G. Wimax is obviously closer to 4G than 3G. T-mobile and Cingular will probably go do the HSPA model first with HSDPA first, HSUPA next following that with either HSOPA or LTE that you mentioned. Verizon as I mentioned earlier would probably look at REV C, UMB, and/or Scalable Bandwidth. They cannot do Wimax since they do not have the spectrum to do so. If they win the 700 MHz auction perhaps, that will change.
And isn't Rev. C and UMB the same thing? It uses OFDMA so it isn't anything like Rev. B or Rev. A
Actually, REV A, and B uses OFDM for some transmission. UMB also uses OFDMA but it combines basically the technologies like CDMA into one signal air interface, which is spectrum efficient. Of course with the addition of MIMO, UMB is better than A and B, allows for higher throughput but more importantly lower latency and allows enhance VOIP on the system. You are 100% right. REV C and UMB are the same thing. I do not know why I keep saying REV C and UMB. They used to be separate but now C has been designated UMB.
Everyone knows T-mobile is behind and they are starting to get their act together with their massive purchase in the AWS spectrum, continue to build out towers, and roll out that 3G network. Spending should pick up on capital expenditures....
