CDMA 1xEV-DO Revision A Solutions for Service Providers

CDMA 1xEV-DO Revision A Solutions for Service Providers: "CDMA mobile network operators are satisfying this need today by offering CDMA2000� 1xEV-DO (1xEvolution-Data Optimized) -- a cost-efficient high-speed data upgrade to current CDMA mobile voice systems.

Improvements to 1xEV-DO, called Revision A, offer mobile operators even faster data speeds, improved latency and even greater capacity -- comparable to fixed-line networks -- enabling operators to offer revenue-generating, blended lifestyle services. With 1xEV-DO Rev A, the maximum data transfer speed increases from 2.4 Mbps to 3.1 Mbps, which can provide users with faster download speeds that are ideal for real-time services such as push-to-talk, mobile video gaming, and streaming video. 1xEVDO Revision A also increases the speeds at which users can send data. This will enable new services such as VoIP.

Together with Lucent's implementation of IMS, which includes a family of Bell Labs-developed technologies that go beyond IMS-compliant components, service providers deploying 1xEV-DO Rev A will be able to quickly and cost-effectively deploy new applications and blended lifestyle services. "
