Clark! I agree with you that backwardcompability can save a lot of money if you have a IS-5 system before.But why should ETSI care about if the American IS-95 operators will get a cheap upgrade. "W-CDMA is constrained by their desire to avoid as many of Qualcomm's patents as possible".Many years has passed since the basics of IS-95 was specified.Don't you think that all that money that has been put in to research and the experiences from the systems up in service today has given anytthing.I am sure that there are more knowledge today how to make an optimal system then they had when IS-95 basics was set. " And at least in some areas (like synchronization) it makes sense that Qualcomm should be more efficient". Why should a system were you use a GPS-system be more efficient then in WCDMA where you synchronize all the basestations with a System frame number protocol from the basestationcontrollers.I think that is a rather intelligent way to do the synchronization. /R
