Coverage of CDMA-based wireless telephone communication services is expanded

The works on expanding of application of CDMA services are underway at the moment. As a result of this activities the Ministry of Communications and IT and “Aztelecom” Production Association started offering CDMA technology based wireless telephone communication services across the territory populated by nearly 80% of population. The number of users of CDMA based wireless telephone services has already reached 27,806 men. Though citizens give preference to stable communication, the limited number of CDMA base stations can not provide sufficient coverage, and this has a negative effect in the number of users. In connection with this 4 additional base stations are being constructed in order to rise the capacity of CDMA base stations up to 20,000 numbers. Advertising of CDMA services among the population remains the main problem in this area. Certain activities are being conducted by The Ministry of Communications and IT in this regard.
