Nokia noted it was able to fully implement this technology in volumes faster than any other vendor.
In addition, Nokia introduced a third-generation all-IP core based on IPv6 that can be connected to radio and data network standards enabling a future-proof, end-to-end network for 3G Mobile Multimedia.
Nokia also unveiled mobile IP packet data for digital professional mobile radio networks incorporating Terrestrial Trunked Radio technology. The new solutions are intended to offer IP end-to-end solutions designed to enhance access to WAP services and more efficient WAP service development.
For Time Division Multiple Access-EDGE networks, Nokia introduced a solution that includes the GPRS core, Base Station Subsystem and end-user service creation platforms to plan, deploy and manage TDMA-EDGE networks, including systems integration.
