Nokia in MicroWave Radios

Business operations started in 1960s Strong Global Position achieved via GSM challenger market growth in 1990s Nokia is
No. 2 in cellular transmission Among 3 top players in global PDH-radio market

Key trends in mobile network transmission

Mbit/s
Capacity need per basestation is increasing

but timing is difficult to predict Networks should have inbuilt flexibility to meet "unknown! capacity needs

Networks will become more dense

How to avoid frequency congestion? higher frequencies new frequency bands various modulation methods
Single band GSM
Dual band GSM
EDGE
WCDMA
TDM, ATM and IP traffic will share the same links

How to multiplex TDM, ATM and IP into the same link? First ATM/IP over TDM, later IP only?
