ZTE and Qualcomm Collaborate to Boost UMTS System Performance

    On July 6, 2009, Qualcomm Incorporated， a leading developer and innovator of advanced wireless technologies, products and services, and ZTE Corporation, a leading global provider of telecommunications equipment and network solutions, announced their collaboration to significantly enhance the capacity and performance of UMTS systems with the integration of Qualcomm’s Uplink Interference Cancellation (ULIC) technology into ZTE’s next generation UMTS base station products.

    Using this technology, operators can boost their UMTS data throughput by up to 60 percent and deliver a user experience that is comparable to LTE in a similar channel bandwidth. The technology also enables UMTS operators to increase voice capacity by up to 45 percent.
