2006 Market Drivers
9
2006 U-ATS Market Drivers HSDPA deployments by major players are expanding throughout 2006 Cingular, Vodafone, NTT DoCoMo Deployments of new services built on top of HSDPA will begin to expose need to properly address performance-related issues Increasing number of handsets coming online from OEMs using QUALCOMM chipsets Strengthening relationship with leading network operator (Cingular), handset manufacturer (Nokia), and technology provider (QUALCOMM)
10
2006 ULTS Market Drivers Japanese government has issues mandate for all handsets to include A-GPS by April 2007 Cingular will utilize A-GPS to meet E911 compliance with its WCDMA handsets Will also face competitive pressures from upcoming Verizon & Sprint LBS launches GCF Work Item for TS 34.171 tests now in place and development of GSM equivalent of specification now underway A-GPS will begin to take hold in Europe as various operators begin to launch services
