Huawei’s SingleRAN solution enables operators to achieve full convergence of multi-mode wireless<br />
networks, including base stations, base station controllers, cell sites, and operations and maintenance<br />
management. SingleRAN provides a simple and unified radio access network fully capable of supporting<br />
any combination of GSM, WCDMA, or LTE/LTE-Advanced and is software configurable. The SingleRAN<br />
solution won the InfoVision Award in the category of "Broadband Access Network Technologies and<br />
Services" at Broadband World Forum 2010 in Paris. Huawei’s Fourth Generation base station is a key<br />
component of the SingleRAN solution. As of October 2010, Huawei had shipped over 4.5 million<br />
transceivers of this latest generation BTS, spanning over multiple releases of 3GPP with Rel-8 being the<br />
latest.<br />
As of October 2010, based on ETSI announcements, Huawei was awarded over 270 essential patents in<br />
LTE, which ranked Huawei as the global No. 4 in the entire industry and as the No. 1 within infrastructure<br />
vendors. In addition, Huawei has generated over 5800+ LTE/SAE standards contributions.<br />
Motorola’s UMTS-HSPA (Rel-6 and Rel-7) solutions address the very specific needs of mobile operators<br />
worldwide enabling them to make the most of today’s challenging market environment. Support for full 15<br />
code HSDPA, HSUPA, HSPA+, IP backhaul options and a host of global operating frequencies are just a<br />
few of the many features that Motorola’s solutions deliver. In addition to improving the end-user<br />
experience, these features also target mobile operators’ network CAPEX and OPEX, providing<br />
opportunities to minimize Total Cost of Ownership.<br />
