SAN FRANCISCO-Researchers from Lucent Technologies Inc.’s Bell Labs announced what it describes as the world’s first turbo decoder chip for terminals that support an enhanced version of UMTS called High Speed Downlink Packet Access.
“The Bell Labs-designed chip, which will be licensed to manufacturers of wireless data terminals, is powerful enough to handle data rates up to 24 megabits per second-nearly ten times faster than today’s most advanced mobile networks,” said Bell Labs.
