GSM/UMTS project slowdown - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Hi,

I am one of the many RF engineers granted with H1B since Oct last year but until now my employer hasn't given us a go signal to travel to US stating slowdown in GSM projects due to recent mergers of operators there. Is this accurate? When can we expect GSM/UMTS projects to peak again? And how come I still see a lot of GSM requirements there from every employment search I do? Would really appreciate anyone's advice. Thank you.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
