2006 Global 3G Landscape Wallchart

Europe Ireland : Research and Markets has announced the addition of Global 3G Landscape Wallchart 2006 to their offering.

While most cellular operators have largely written-off the billions of dollars spent on 3G spectrum licenses at the start of the decade, next generation networks are now widely deployed and new networks continue to come online.

Initially, CDMA operators migrating to EV-DO enjoyed a technology head-start over their GSM counterparts - with no better examples than KDDI in Japan and Verizon Wireless in the US. However, today, WCDMA accounts for the lion's share of 3G subscribers, with 36 million users worldwide.

With the WiMAX threat looming around the corner, 3G operators are not standing still. Many, such as Vodafone and T-Mobile in Europe, are looking to launch HSDPA in 2006 and some operators, like Cingular Wireless, are moving directly to the 3.5G technology.

Researched and designed in association with WCIS, the World Cellular Information Service from Informa Telecoms & Media, this powerful visual tool provides data ranging from awarded equipment vendor contracts to subscriber growth figures.
