hopes to have them on the market within 5 years. ... It might extend the lifetime of non CDMA systems.

Re: Smart Antennas in wireless

Don't know much but ...

Below is from an May 2000 ETSI document called "Future Direction Of Standards Work On UMTS/IMT-2000"

>> § 5.8 What are the key characteristics for later releases UMTS?

The UMTS standards being developed by 3GPP is comprehensive in nature and will include the following key characteristics:

- There will be a range of mass produced terminals with advanced data as well as voice services/capabilities. They will include "Receive-only terminals", basic voice terminals and Multi-media terminals.

- The major use of UMTS terminals is likely to switch from voice applications to Multi-media applications.

- UMTS networks will be widely packet/cell based and access networks will include advanced radio/transmission capabilities such as the ability to offer flexible bandwidth on demand and asymmetric bandwidth.

- The use of "Software Radios" and Smart Antennas etc. will become more widespread. Also both terminals and networks will have much greater programmable processing power. <<
