-
It provides up to 2.048 megabit per second
data rates in 1.6 MHz channels, and is intended to be used
in unpaired spectrum bands in the 2000 MHz band.
-
Access to new UMTS spectrum resources
increase the network capacity.
-
Outstanding Spectrum efficiency (1.6
MHz bandwidth, 3 to 5 times higher than GSM, handling more
traffic with fewer base stations) ensures economic use of
spectrum.
-
TD-SCDMA can serve as a complement to
W-CDMA deployments since it uses the same network backbone.
-
The use of time-division duplexing allows
the network to adapt dynamically to varying combinations
of voice and data traffic, allocating uplink and downlink
time slots as needed and using spectrum more efficiently
than frequency-division duplexing.
-
In addition, the
cost of terminals is reduced by eliminating the need for
duplex filters. The TD-SCDMA standard has been further developed
by numerous Chinese and multinational corporations and consortia.
