The Goal of a Wireless Network
The convergence of voice, video and data services is the ultimate goal of many communication service providers. To achieve this goal, technologies associated with the traditional voice dominated network are replaced by newer technologies that accommodate the bandwidth demands of today’s consumer. Access schemes, such as Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) and Frequency Division Duplex (FDD), were regarded as innovative technologies when first applied to the requirements of the traditional voice network. Today, however, there are other technologies on the market that allow for the performance required to meet the high bandwidth demands and the dynamic nature of the current network that must deliver voice, video, Internet and data services efficiently.
