SAN DIEGO, Calif.-PacketVideo said Finland’s Sonera Corp. will conduct field trials of its wireless multimedia services this summer.
PacketVideo’s MPEG-4 compliant software-based encoding, decoding and transmission-management products enable wireless carriers to deliver a variety of content and media applications-not just data-to mobile devices, according to PacketVideo.
The company’s software is air-interface independent, allowing the field trial to use both 14.4 kilobits per second Global System for Mobile communications and 43 kbps high-speed circuit switched data connections to personal digital assistants and data-capable mobile phones.
