First UMTS Wireless Network in a Public Metro System

Andrew Corporation will install the world's first 3G wireless network of its kind for use in a public transportation system to upgrade the Hong Kong mass transit railway's underground communications network.

The network will counteract signal losses and provide better coverage through use of high-performance tuned radiating cables, large diameter feeder cables, new and relocated antennas at critical signal sites, new amplifiers and reconfigured transmission paths. The project should be finished in 2006. (via Cellular News)
