Products & Services: Wireless Networks Technology 1X Advanced
1X Advanced offers up to 4x increase over today’s CDMA2000 1X networks. Operators can get up to 50% increase by introducing already commercial devices with better vocoders. The maximum increase of up to 4x is achieved through a new channel card upgrade and new devices.
This unprecedented voice capacity increase can be used to free up spectrum to offer EV-DO data services. This is an important tool, among others, available to operators to address the explosive growth in data demand.
The high voice capacity of 1X Advanced can be traded off to achieve up to 70% increase in coverage area. The increased coverage can be used to improve indoor coverage in urban areas and reduce the number of sites required in rural areas.
1x Advanced is a simple channel card upgrade, leveraging all of the existing network assets. Although it needs new devices to achieve the full 4x capacity, it is fully backward and forward compatible.
