Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c59089) has announced the addition of TD-SCDMA Market: Handsets Will Not Be the Bottleneck to their offering

3G has been expected by Chinas mobile market for several years, but home-grown TD-SCDMA has made Chinas road into 3G complex and tortuous. Over the past several years, China has lost opportunities to establish its own standards in a host of areas, such as WLAN, DVD, Mobile TV, and mobile communications, and thus to break its cycle of IPR dependence on the west. TD-SCDMA is a significant opportunity for China to establish a global communication standard, to lead the technology development, and to own more intellectual property, which in turn will lower royalty fees and manufacturing costs.

Using Chinas wireless market status and the drivers and barriers behind 3G network implementation as a background, this report checks the maturity of the TD-SCDMA industry from the point of view of system equipment, handsets, IT/software, chipsets, and operation. It also addresses the following questions in detail: 1) handset design cost and cycle; 2) the dual-mode issue; 3) handset chipset vendor differentiations; 4) equipment providers competitive landscapes; 5) IC vendors opportunities in TD-SCDMA base stations; 6) TD-SCDMA operation strategy; and 7) TD-SCDMAs international opportunity. Through analysis of carriers deployment plans and TCO on TD-SCDMA, forecasts for base station shipments, infrastructure investment, and subscribers are also provided in the report.
