Siemens and CATT to push TD-SCDMA as 3G alternative

China may take its own path to 3G - DPR

27 June 2000

German electronics giant Siemens and the China Academy of
Telecommunication Technology (CATT), a think-tank
controlled by the Ministry of Information Industry (MII), have
developed the TD-SCDMA 3rd-generation mobile telephony
standard.

The new standard is a rival to UMTS and CDMA 2000 and offers
comparable technology. As a mark of its confidence in
TD-SCDMA, Siemens does not plan to sell UMTS equipment in
China, a market where the company does 40% of its telecoms
infrastructure business, according to Rudi Lamprecht, president
of the information and communications mobile group of
Siemens.

Lamprecht added that a significant part of the company's $1
billion planned investment in China by 2002-2003 will go
towards the joint development and manufacturing of
TD-SCDMA equipment.

China Unicom and China Mobile, state-owned mobile phone
operators, have endorsed the new technology but have not made a
firm commitment to buy.
