The
2002 CDMA Americas Congress will feature a
pre-conference workshop titled "Migrating From TDMA to
CDMA2000: Hands-On Experience" on Tuesday, Dec. 3,
2002, at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego.
Attendees will hear case studies from operators and
infrastructure providers who have migrated a network
from TDMA to CDMA2000. Key topics to be explored will
include the economic and technical reasons for
selecting CDMA2000, issues encountered during the
transition and future plans for both voice and data
services.
This workshop has
been specifically designed to meet
the information needs of Latin American carriers who
are implementing a TDMA to CDMA2000 migration, as well
as those who are evaluating the financial and practical
feasibility of this migration path.
CDMA2000 is a viable
solution for TDMA operators
looking to offer next-generation services. It is a
direct path to 3G, preserves investment in the existing
IS-41 core network and allows them flexibility to
migrate to 3G over time, as the market for advanced
services evolves.
Executives from
Movilnet and US Cellular, two operators
who have migrated their TDMA networks to CDMA2000, and
senior representatives from Ericsson, Lucent
Technologies, Nortel Networks and Qualcomm will present
during the workshop.

agenda can be found on the event Web site at
