We, at Nortel, are very committed to 4G … Because OFDM and MIMO will drive 4G… which has significantly better economics than 3G with far superior APEX and CAPEX than existing technologies.
sure, but so did 3G vs 2G and 2G vs 1G .. if you couldn’t execute on a generation of technology, it is better to focus on the next round of evolution but claiming that it was because 3G doesn’t provide adequate benefits is not acknowledging reality. Granted MIMO and OFDM will play a critical role in evolution of mobile network technologies but there are a number of players who are ahead of Nortel. Nortel will probably need some good acquisitions to build up its MIMO/OFDM IP portfolio.
