BEIJING (April 20) XINHUA via NewsEdge Corporation - The China Academy of Telecommunication Technology (CATT) under the Ministry of Information and Telecommunication, recently concluded evaluating the third-generation WCDMA (Wide Code-Division Multiple Access) system with Ericsson China.

"All application and services with the trial WCDMA system have been tested to meet standards, setting a solid foundation for China's smooth transition to the new telecom era," said Zhang Ken, vice president of Ericsson China.

The trial system, established in early 1999, has handled voice/ video data, UDI transmissions and high-speed packet data.

Zou Tong, deputy director of the science and technology department of CATT, said, "We have been testing the WCDMA experimental system provided by Ericsson, and the results are encouraging us to intensify our cooperation in this area."

Zhang noted that the achievements of the WCDMA trial system will help accelerate the commercialization of the third-generation telecom and the mobile Internet service.

Ericsson signed an agreement with CATT in 1998 to install WCDMA evaluation systems on a trial basis in
China.
