re: New iDEN Vocoder nearly double voice capacity

>> iDEN Voice Capacity To Double With New Codex

Cellular News
April 17th 2002

Nextel and Motorola have successfully tested a new voice coder (vocoder) software that is expected to nearly double Nextel's iDEN voice capacity. An independent laboratory specializing in analyzing wireless services found the new vocoder passed comprehensive testing of sound quality, paving the way for the on-time deployment of the technology in late 2003.

In addition, the two companies announced that Motorola will deliver a new software release that is designed to enable traveling capability for Nextel Direct Connect which will allow users to roam into Nextel markets that are not part of their regional service area, using the digital two-way radio service in the market being visited.

Motorola says that it expects to complete the integration of the new vocoder software in the second half of 2003. New Nextel wireless phones by Motorola, which will support the existing and new vocoder software, are scheduled to be available beginning the second half of 2003.

Nextel is scheduled to deliver the new Direct Connect roaming capability in the fourth quarter of 2002, following several months of rigorous software testing. An additional software upgrade is expected in the first half of 2003 and will enable a Direct Connect user to use their push-to-talk feature virtually anywhere in the USA to connect with another Direct Connect user. <<
