Amidst the virtual blizzard of PR, the 1X Plus MOT release is the most intriguing and problematic. Just as we on the thread were beginning to get comfortable with the notion that HDR had the potential to gain widespread backing and become a viable business in its own right, along comes MOT, CLAIMING, among other things [snips follow]: technology...that will allow the operators of today's code division multiple access (CDMA) systems the ability to achieve wireless data rates of more than 5 Mbps on their existing CDMA infrastructure....The proposal, known as 1X Plus...is gaining support...with several key industry participants in the drive for an open standards approach to the next evolutionary step beyond 1X....Additionally, unlike Qualcomm's high data rate (HDR) proposal, voice and data can co-exist on the same 1X Plus carrier. Motorola's 1X Plus proposal builds on many improvements to the existing cdma2000 1X air interface, with the intent of maximizing data throughput. This evolution of the cdma2000 1X standard allows operators in spectrum-constrained environments to achieve 3G-like data rates without having to purchase new spectrum or clear 5MHz of congested existing spectrum....-- A twofold increase in data capacity and the flexibility to mix voice and data in the same 1.25 MHz of spectrum, which is of benefit to carriers who already have deployed CDMA systems.... Engineer, I guess you have the floor. Is this more VW40 or something closer to commercial realization. Perhaps it was telling, in this context, that Schrock announced that MOT was Q's fastest growing ASIC customer. Steve
