WCDMA, as the most competitive 3 technologies in the world, makes China Unicom 3G network have obvious technical competitiveness and users can experience it better. Globally, WCDMA's sustained high-speed user demand growth can support China Unicom to continue to grow bigger and stronger. China Unicom established the first brand of mobile broadband with WCDMA, absorbed high-end users from other networks to switch networks, improved the user structure, raised ARPU value, and established a new image of China Unicom.
