All the advantages of fixed and mobile in one handset

The new GSM Cordless Telephony System (CTS) is a  new feature of the GSM standard that finally makes the dream of being able to use a GSM cellular phone at home, with the cost and the quality of the fixed network, a reality.

CTS calls via a GSM mobile use the frequencies allocated to E-GSM 900 Mhz and GSM 1800 Mhz.


CTS competes against a similar DECT system.

System Overview

In the home environment, GSM-CTS phones communicate with a CTS Home Base Station (HBS), which offers perfect indoor radio coverage.

The CTS-HBS hooks up to the fixed network and offers the best of the fixed and mobile worlds: low cost and high quality from the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), services and mobility from the GSM.

One of the main advantages of GSM-CTS compared with other one-phone solutions is its small impact on GSM handsets.

It does not require any hardware modifications, extra Central Processor Unit (CPU) or large memory space. It just needs an upgrade of the GSM software on the phone.

Chinese mobile phone market nearly doubled in 2000 to 85.3m users

BEIJING, 23 2 2001

The number of mobile phone users in China nearly doubled to 85.3 million last year, helped by the popularity of services such as short messaging, according to Business Weekly, citing a report from the Ministry of Information Industry. 

The number of users was up 97 pct from 43.3 million users in 1999, it said. 


Many Chinese, especially in the cities, decided to become cell phone users because of new services such as short messaging. 


More value-added mobile services are expected in the coming months and many market analysts expect the growth momentum in the industry to be maintained, the paper said. 


In another sign of the explosive growth of China's cell phone market, mobile telecommunications accounted for 42 pct of last year's total telecoms revenue of 307.4 billion yuan. 


China's fixed-line telecoms market saw more modest growth of 35 million users last year, the paper reported, adding that this, given previously published statistics, suggests China's fixed-line market grew by 32 pct to 145 million users.
