Voice and Data Concurrent Services
CDMA currently does not support voice and data concurrent services. But this is a very important feature for smart phones.
Overloaded Data Services Impact on Voice Calls
Data service not only increases the data traffic, but also
- ccupies a lot of bandwidth on signaling channel, which
causes high call drop rate.
