Chinese TD-SCDMA mobile standard ready for commercial usage
Media group Financial Times has said in a report that China’s homegrown mobile phone technology TD-SCDMA is ready for commercial usage in the country.
The report quoted ZTE President Yin Yimin as saying: “Can TD-SCDMA now operate as an independent network? … We reckon that is no problem. Are there suitable handsets? … We reckon we can provide the handsets. Now it is up to the state and the operators.”
He further said that the hardware powering TD-SCDMA standard for 3G telecoms services could operate comparably with that of the rival European-led WCDMA standard and the US-favored CDMA2000.
This also means that the Chinese government can now issue 3G licenses to the mobile service providers in the country, as they would have a homegrown technology to explore.
