DECT DECT stands for "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications" and denotes a radio technology suited for voice data and networking applications with range requirements up to a few 100 m. DECT is a flexible digital radio access standard for cordless communications in residential, corporate and public environments. DECT provides for voice and multimedia traffic, and contains many forward-looking technical features that allow DECT-based cordless systems to play a central role in important new communications developments such as Internet access and interworking with other fixed and wireless services such as ISDN and GSM. The DECT standard makes use of several advanced digital radio techniques to achieve efficient use of the radio spectrum; it delivers high speech quality and security with low risk of radio interference and low power technology. TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) radio access, with its low radio interference characteristics, provides high system capacity to handle up to 100'000 users per km² floor space in an office environment. ADPCM (Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation) speech encoding ensures a DECT cordless phone very high speech quality, comparable to wireline telephony. DCS/DCA (Dynamic Channel Selection / Allocation) is a unique DECT capability that guarantees the best radio channels available to be used. This happens when a cordless phone is in stand-by mode, and throughout a call. This capability ensures that DECT can coexist with other DECT applications and with other systems in the same frequency, with high-quality, robust and secure communications for end-users. Other features of the DECT standard include encryption for maximum call security and optimized radio transmission for maximum battery life. DECT basic technology and the various profiles enhance the DECT standard, introducing evolutionary applications and services. The GAP profile, for example, ensures interoperability of equipment from different providers for voice applications. DECT Map |
