(InfoWorld) - Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson introduced an access point designed to let users improve the quality of cellphone calls made in their homes. Ericsson is hoping to sell the device to operators that could then offer customers special mobile calling rates in their homes. The access point supports GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access), Wi-Fi, and DSL (Digital Subscriber Line). End users would connect the access point to a broadband line and then make and receive calls with their standard GSM and WCDMA handsets in their homes. The access point would deliver better signal strength and call quality within users' homes than the standard wide area cellular network. Calls will automatically transfer between the home base station and the wider area network as users move in and out of the home. Some operators already offer home zone calling plans but they usually must offer the discounted rate within the wider range of a standard base station. Vodafone Group, for example, offers its At Home plan in several markets including Germany, Italy, the U.K., Greece, Hungary and Portugal. A user's home zone for the service is an area within an approximately two kilometer radius. Ericsson's access point could help operators like Vodafone that primarily have wireless networks to better compete against fixed-line operators for voice services in the home. Mobile operators have tried to encourage users to replace their home phone lines with their mobile phones but network coverage within the home is an issue for some customers. Ericsson said the access point will be available through selected operators starting in the middle of this year.

(InfoWorld) - Telstra and mobile equipment maker Ericsson have claimed a world-first 200km cell phone range in the carrier's Next G HSDPA network. The announcement was made at the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona by Ericsson president and CEO Carl-Henric Svanberg. Ericsson's Extended Range software has been installed and activated in selected mountaintop sites across Australia, four months after the launch of Telstra's Next G network, to support all of the 3G services. Telstra CEO Sol Trujillo said the company had displayed global leadership when it built the "turbocharged" Next G network in 10 months, and since launching Next G with HSDPA Telstra has doubled the volume of total data traffic carried on all of its wireless networks. The Ericsson solution enables coverage up to 124 miles (200 kms) from a base station, a step up from the 50km range typically supported today, according to the company. The software upgrade means the Next G network data capacity has now been tripled and network speeds vary from up to 1.9Mbps for uploads and 14.4Mbps for downloads. Telstra claims downlink speeds of 2.3Mbps at a 200km range have been achieved during testing. The Next G network is also testing 7.2Mbps data cards slated for launch in mid-2007.
