ZTE Corp of China, the telecom equipment manufacturer, revealed what it describes as ‘ground breaking’ new technologies in CDMA2000 and WCDMA in Hong Kong last week.

ZTE’s new CDMA2000 solution, the 1xEV-DO+1x Release A, supports both voice and data simultaneously, and offers wireless packet data services.

With a speed of 307.2kbps in a single carrier wave, 1x ReleaseA is an enhancement to the earlier Release0, the company noted. While the Release0-based 1x system has already been put into operation in more than 90 commercial networks, the ReleaseA is expected to be formally introduced into the international market shortly.

ZTE’s all-IP platform is reported to solve problems of QoS and has been applied to a number of 3G base stations. According to the company, one major advantage in adopting the all-IP-based solution is that it keeps the network structure consistent throughout the whole process, from core network to access network, minimising investment risk for the telecom operators.
