Currently, the Biden administration is adopting an S&T competition strategy toward China based on the “small yard, high fence” tactical logic, which involves three pillars: investment to make America strong, alignment to get things under control, and competition to weaken China. In the current context of the China–U.S. competition entering a new normal, five inherent contradictions, namely, the gap between strategic expectations and policy effects, shortfall between action capabilities and policy objectives, push-and-pull between strategic deployment and domestic politics, clash between strategic intentions and the S&T innovation ecosystem, and divergences between American priorities and the interests of American allies, will dictate how this administration will implement its S&T competition strategy toward China.展开更多

It is equipped with all the necessary features for optimal support of real-time and best-effort traffic with seamless mobility. This article overviews the UMB technology, and discusses its competitive advantages, which are fast time to market, flexible deployment options, inherently designed for real-time services and flexible IP-based network architecture. Moreover, the article analyzes key UMB design features, including Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), advanced antenna techniques, Reverse Link (RL) sector capacity optimization, adaptive interference management mechanisms, efficient RL control design, low-overhead signaling, fast seamless handoffs, multi-carrier support and beacons, enhanced terminal battery life, and flexible IP-based network architecture. UMB is well suited to be at the center of the future that melds broadband applications with faster, more capable mobile multimedia devices. UMB's competitive advantages provide operators with continuous differentiation today and tomorrow.展开更多
