performance for instant video and audio, plus no-wait text and
voice capabilities. In multimedia, we introduced the SCH-B250,
the fourth in our family of satellite DMB phones. It lets users take
calls, download and play high-quality MP3 music, send text
messages, and catch the latest TV programs. In camera phones,
our SCH-V 770 offers the world’s first pro-quality 7- megapixel

Upcoming Innovation in Telecommunications Technology
Our business is committed to continuously moving forward.
Anticipating upcoming innovations, we’re leading the market with
products that support HSDPA technologies. We will continue to
lead the mobile TV market, driving its development by supporting
every mobile broadcast technology – S-DMB, T- DMB, DVB-H,
CDMA, and UMTS Media FLO. We’re also leading the commer-
cialization of WiBro, which is essentially a Mobile WiMAX standard,
in both domestic and overseas markets. WiBro offers portable
wireless broadband Internet access with a maximum downlink
data speed of 20 Mbps. We’re also continuing with our invest-
ments in and standardization of 4G technology. The individual
networks of the various wireless services—GSM/GPRS, CDMA/
W-CDMA, WiBro/Mobile WiMAX—will be converged into this
4G Next Generation Mobile Service. It will deliver data speeds of
100Mbps mobile and 1Gbps nomadic, which will enable an all-IP
based ubiquitous network. As part of this effort, we annually host
the global “Samsung 4G Forum.”
In addition, the Telecommunication R&D Center has introduced
the revolutionary FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) Solution and launched
a variety of new mobile handsets. The Center is also involved
in the telecommunication standardization of WiBro and 4G.
“ Innovation comes from adapting new technologies
ahead of your competitors.”
