ASIA : Panasonic Mobile Communications (PMC) announced shipment to NTT DoCoMo, Inc. of outdoor-use Small Wireless Base Station Equipment for 3G mobile phone service (FOMA ).

This equipment was co-developed with NTT DoCoMo in order to achieve faster enhancement of further product quality of areas required by NTT DoCoMo. Utilizing its technologies including high-density mounting technology, pre-distortion type small amplifiers, newly developed heat discharge and water-proof methods, PMC has realized further miniaturization/light weight (*2) and power-saving/low-cost compared with conventional equipment. This is most suitable for low traffic areas due to easy outdoor installation.

This equipment enables installation with existing base stations and shortens the construction period, which will lead to drastic reduction of introduction-cost and operation-cost.

From now on, the equipment will be rapidly introduced nation-wide to expand the service areas such as specific low traffic or very weak radio wave regions. Under the circumstances, PMC will strive to strengthen our manufacturing structures to meet the market demands
