The traditional GSM operators now face even more competition. In planning for high speed data services, the mobile networks have turned to 3G. However, it is not possible to use twice the number of Node Bs in the core frequency (2.1G) in order to cover the distances to the suburbs and throughout the entire country. Because of the economic factors, UMTS900M technology became the focus of attention when it was chosen in Europe.
Imagine that you are traveling on a high speed train in Europe and you urgently need some documents for an unscheduled project meeting. Because they exceed 1GB, these documents include files and pictures that can be downloaded reasonably quickly, providing that your computer and data card are connected. This would remove the headache of having to jump off the train and rush to an Internet café. Suppose now that you are traveling in Fiji and have just recorded the torch lighting ceremony with your high definition camera. The several hundred mega bytes files can be uploaded onto YouTube.com within one minute through your mobile phone connected with your camera, enabling people around the world to share your experience.
The backbone of a mobile transport network is the first part that is packetized. Now, some mobile operators have made their backbones IP-based, which helps to decrease the investment on backbone device interfaces by at least 30%, provides an open platform to deliver new services, and adds to the competitive strength of the operators.
Persistence and unflagging effort underline the “Never Give Up” ethos integral to success. Indeed, 2007 richly rewarded Huawei’s perseverance and capabilities with its entry into the world’s three largest CDMA markets: the United States, India and China.
The rule of 10/90 commonly applies to today’s mobile communications markets. For example, 10% of multinational tier-1 operators undertake 90% of each year's network construction. And 10% of tier-1 operators consistently reap 90% of each year's revenues. A small number of operators such as Vodafone, FT/Orange, Telefonica, T-Mobile and Telecom Italia have over 90% of the European market; local giant "America Movil" and two multinational telecom giants monopolize the Latin American market; MTS, Vimpelcom, and Megafon dominate the CIS market; operators such as Etisalat, OT, and STC control the Middle Eastern market; and the situation is even more so in Asian countries such as China and India.
In the mobile telecommunication market, the multinational Asia-Pacific markets demand diverse mobile networks,solutions, and services to satisfy the various customer requirements. Huawei, a leader in providing next generation telecommunications network solutions for operators around the world, focuses on satisfying these customer requirements by providing “Integrated, Broadband, Green, Evolution” innovative wireless networks. In recent years, Huawei has opened offices in Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand, India, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, and other countries and regions in Asia-Pacific. And, it is worth noting that several mobile operators in Asia-Pacific have boosted their competitive capability and expanded their market share since they turned to Huawei.
