SAN DIEGO, Jan. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM - News), a leading developer and innovator of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and other advanced wireless technologies, and Flarion Technologies, a pioneer and leading developer of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex Access (OFDMA) technology and the inventor of FLASH-OFDM® technology for mobile broadband Internet protocol (IP) services, announced that on January 13, 2006 the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice terminated its review of the proposed merger of the two companies under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act. The Act requires parties to certain acquisitions to notify the antitrust authorities in advance of the acquisition and to observe a waiting period to allow the antirust agencies to determine whether to object to the transaction. The termination of the Antitrust Division's review of the merger means that the requirements of the Act have been satisfied, and QUALCOMM and Flarion expect to close the merger in the next few days.
