Title :
Opening the U.S. Mobile Communications Market
Abstract :
Future wireless mobile communications will be shifted from today´s traditional transmission-specific radio technology to an interface-based technology in order to be more compatible with computer system architectures. The future mobile device will therefore be first and foremost a computer, then an open wireless architecture (OWA) terminal. This OWA technology offers an optimal solution to open up the wireless platform for complete openness and simplicity and would support the service-oriented architecture and infrastructure that is necessary for future mobile phone development and advancement.
