Overview

SOLiD WCDMA ICS is digitalized repeater system applyingDSP(Digital Signal Processing) for interference cancellation to

enable outdoor wireless coverage expansion with higher system gainand reliability.

OMC (Operation & Management Center), the centralized product-wide remote management system, allows customers to monitor andcontrol groups of the ICS systems.
