Lakers,
Thanks for your informative comments on both the cdma double double and on AMR. You are a Grand Guru (which title you risk losing if you don't behave <g>).
But Pre-Commercial = Production Shipments. Tsk, Tsk, Tsk.
... and after I read all them whitepaper promises.
<< Will the same principle apply to GSM side, maybe, maybe not, Unless you go out and make major changes in the GSM air interface. >>
Done and being done in 'R99', & 'R5'?
<< And SMV beats AMR hands down >>
Your bias is showing. <g>
Any comments on Nokia SRC (Capacity increase by up to 75% ) Nokia CRRM (increase radio network capacity by up to 50%), Ericsson's Multiple Reuse Pattern (MRP)?
<< I don't know transmit diversity is in the agenda in GSM/GPRS/EDGE >>
Certainly transmit diversity techniques such as Software Power Boost and Adaptive Multi-Beam Antennas arwe in play to support the AMR technology step.
Good post from engineer on topic reposted from Ramsey's thread, below.
Best,

Things like this are already doing the stuff needed on basestations, but mostly he was talking about handsets.

*************************************
With ZIF technology (in the MSM 5500) and the dropping of ASIC feature sizes every 12 months, this is possible now. they could mock up the entire system using two MSM 500 chips now, then take the DSP front end and make a new chip in the next 9-12 months which would be about 20-30% more complex than the MSM 5500, but in the end would actually be smaller than the MSM 5500 because of feature shrink.
It would probably cost more for the second antenna than the circuits. <<
