Nokia is the world leader in

WCDMA infrastructure.

By 12 October, 2004 Nokia had

achieved:

44 WCDMA references with

25 system deals, 14 of which have

Nokia as the sole supplier.

Nokia has supplied 24 of the

50 WCDMA networks in commercial

operation.

Commercial system hardware

deliveries since September 2001.

Network planning and optimization

play a key role in ensuring high-

quality WCDMA 3G services. To help

operators realize the full potential

of their network, the Nokia WCDMA

Radio Access Network (RAN) has many

features to reduce the time and cost

of network deployment. Nokias

comprehensive planning services,

solutions and tools seamlessly

complement its equipment, providing

a complete deployment package

that delivers top performance at the

lowest possible cost.

A full package from NokiaNokias WCDMA RAN solution enables

operators and network planners to

smoothly overcome network deployment

challenges. Nokias portfolio of base

stations range from traditional indoor and

outdoor variants to truly siteless models.

There is a base station suitable for every

site. Whats more, an extensive WCDMA

footprint can be deployed outside traffic

hotspots using solutions like the compactyet powerful Nokia MetroSite 50 site

solution.

Such variety helps operators tackle typical

challenges such as acquiring sites in

dense urban areas, as well as ensuring

coverage in shadow areas behind big

buildings. Meanwhile, indoor coverage

systems such as the Nokia Advanced

Indoor Radio Solution allow operators

to build indoor coverage economically.

All Nokia WCDMA base stations provide

extensive support for GSM/EDGE co-siting.

In addition, Nokias extensive set of

features for its WCDMA RAN offers network

planners great flexibility for implementing

networks. The key concept in the Nokia

WCDMA Radio Access Solution is

integration. From the base stations and

indoor coverage systems to the functions

that ensure that the network is optimized,

the system forms a unified solution

based on centralized databases. This has

enabled cutting-edge network controlfeatures, such as Nokia RealTilt for remote

antenna tilting, as well as providing a safe

evolution to highly automated networks.
