Ilmarinen,

You posted this treat on the other NOK thread where I am proud to say I'm not allowed to respond. Not that it deserves much response.

>>Three Nokia engineers got the (yearly?) finnish engineering
price for having developed a functioning, integrated
direct modulation (ZIF) solution back in 1998, but now
the Q-gang goes into the nirvana of more royalties on
something which is the first thing on the first page of
every elementary book in telecommunication.<<

As I am sure you know, the type of modulation being used determines the difficulty of direct modulation (zif). I am assuming your 3 Nokia engineers did not develop a direct modulation technique for CDMA. I think you knew that your statement above had no relevance to QCOM's ZIF announcement. If QCOM has developed a unique method for direct modulation of CDMA it may indeed include new IP and create a new royalty stream.

What type of modulation were the Nokia engineers developing? GSM? It must be an accomplishment if they won a prize.

Your post is obvious fud.

Pete
