The way forward for GSM/GPRS: Extend coverage and capacity to ensure Communications for All

• Existing GSM networks can be extended in coverage and capacity in a fast and cost-effective way

• Recent examples of rapid network roll-out:Vodafone Albania; Q-Telecom in Greece; SNR Romania

Site acquisition is becoming an inhibiting factor that causes delays

• Extend coverage:– New, high-capacity RBS with maximum coverage of 120 km– Coverage of white spots with Mini-GSM

• Extend capacity and speed:– GPRS - 2.5G – WCDMA - 3G
