All of the considerations which previously applied to GPRS also apply
to EGPRS.
• Multi-slot down and uplink,
• Faster LO and PLL settling then GSM
• MIPS – Faster data rates, Power consumption & Thermal issues
• DSP decode algorithm and prediction – has to be more robust,
more MIPS (approx. factor of 4), more memory, more data retention
(Incremental Redundancy)
• New user capabilities - graphics acceleration and display
(TTP.COM) “EDGE will require up to 400 MIPS using 4 Slots.”
