| "Ahead of competition, wireless technologies developer Qualcomm submitted its application to bid in BWA auctions" |
Qualcomm, a leading developer and innovator of advanced wireless technologies, products and services, announced that it has filed an application to bid in India’s upcoming auction for BWA (Broadband Wireless Access) spectrum in the 2.3 GHz band to facilitate the deployment of TD-LTE.
TD-LTE is compatible with 3G WCDMA/HSPA and EV-DO, and will enable a seamless broadband experience for consumers within India and while roaming globally.
Through the use of integrated multimode devices that support TD-LTE as well as 3G and 2G technologies, TD-LTE will take advantage of the 3G and 2G ecosystems, thereby creating economies of scale to enable a broad choice of wireless broadband devices at affordable price points for Indian consumers.
TD-LTE enhances 3G networks and offers an attractive value proposition to end-users as well as the wireless ecosystem.
If successful in winning spectrum in the auction, Qualcomm intends to secure Indian partners after completion of the auction and in compliance with the applicable Indian Foreign Direct Investment regulations.
Qualcomm and its partners intend to demonstrate TD-LTE technology with the goal of creating a TD-LTE infrastructure and device ecosystem that, in concert with 3G networks and devices, will support India’s broadband goals.
The San Diego-based company is a leader in developing and delivering innovative digital wireless communications products and services based on CDMA and other advanced technologies.
