CDMA has biggest PCS footprint

WASHINGTON—Personal communications services 1900 MHz
networks using Code Division Multiple Access technology lead in terms of
radio-frequency footprint, according statistics released by The Strategis
Group.

As of March, CDMA systems covered 10.4 percent of the U.S.
geography, followed by Global System for Mobile communications
systems with 7.3 percent coverage and Time Division Multiple Access
PCS systems, which cover 6.2 percent of the country's geography, said
Strategis.

‘‘Coverage is a key factor driving competition and consumer satisfaction,''
said Elliott Hamilton, senior vice president for North American Telecom at
Washington, D.C.-based Strategis. ‘‘Geography footprint only tells half of
the story.

‘‘Another important indicator is population coverage,'' continued
Hamilton. ‘‘CDMA leads here as well, although TDMA and GSM have
similar population coverage.''
