New issue of Ericsson Review
New issue of Ericsson Review Jan Uddenfeldt, Senior Vice President - Technology, and publisher of the Ericsson Review, proudly announces the release of Issue no. 1, 1999 of the Ericsson Review- Ericsson's highly respected technology journal, now celebrating its 75th year in publication. Issue no. 1, 1999 contains the following five in-depth articles on products and technological developments from Ericsson: Ericsson's Pro products- Adapting mass-market technology to fit specialized needs Ericsson's Pro product family is a value-add overlay that allows wireless operators to augment their service offering with dispatch and group- communication capabilities. As such, it is an ideal replacement for traditional public mobile radio (PMR) systems, and offers a solution to the emerging market of workgroup communications. Open communication devices using the EPOC operating system Ericsson's new, open smart phones and communicators powered by the EPOC operating system will ensure improved usability, promote improved personal productivity, establish an open-application environment, preserve Ericsson's core software values and capitalize on the high bit rates offered by third- generation networks. Ericsson's e-box system- An electronic services enabler As consumers become increasingly sophisticated and mature in the use of information technology, they are also becoming accustomed to having their informational needs satisfied instantaneously. To cater for these needs, Ericsson has developed a new e-service infrastructure, the e-box system, which delivers complete e-services all the way to the home. EDGE- Enhanced data rates for GSM and TDMA/136 evolution The use of high-level modulation to provide enhanced data rates for GSM evolution is currently being standardized by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). EDGE is also being adopted for TDMA/136 by the Universal Wireless Communications Consortium (UWCC). Mobile Advantage Wireless Office - A digital wireless office system for TDMA/136 networks Ericsson's digital wireless office system was developed especially for in- building communications operating on the licensed 850 MHz cellular and 1900 MHz personal communications services (PCS) frequency bands. Because the system is fully compliant with the TDMA/136 specification, any terminal that meets this specification can be used with the system. Beginning with this issue, both the paper-based and electronic versions of Ericsson Review sport a fresh new look and feel that is indicative of the journal's role of reporting on telecommunications technology at the cutting edge.
