InterDigital to Showcase Advanced Wireless Technologies for Tomorrow’s Converged Devices, Networks, and Services at CES 2011

Company Release - 12/29/2010

KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDCC) today announced that the company will showcase advanced wireless technologies that will drive tomorrow’s converged devices, networks, and services at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas on January 6 to 9, 2011. InterDigital’s featured solutions address the unique and complex challenges inherent to the convergence of wireless communications and consumer electronics.

“Given the rapid growth of wireless consumer electronic devices, CES is now becoming a major event for the wireless industry, and it’s an optimal for us given that our research focuses on capacity constraints, network congestion and signaling issues resulting from the increasing use of bandwidth-rich consumer applications and services,” said William J. Merritt, President and Chief Executive Officer of InterDigital®. “Our innovations enable more efficient wireless networks, a richer multimedia experience and new capabilities, and CES is the ideal event to showcase the next generation of devices and services.”

During the event, the company will host live technology demonstrations that offer a preview into the future of mobile broadband and consumer electronics:

  • Dynamic bandwidth optimization technologies that help alleviate “bandwidth crunch” challenges from the exponential growth in data demand;
  • Home / Enterprise gateway platforms that enable seamless bandwidth-efficient multimedia delivery and mobility across multiple devices and networks at home, in the workplace, and in hotspots; and
  • Standardized machine-to-machine (M2M) service capabilities that connect cellular and non-cellular networks seamlessly, allowing network operators the ability to remotely manage and control M2M devices, and to offer M2M network services to third parties.

Building on the company's legacy of inventing fundamental technologies used in 2G, 3G, and LTE devices, networks and services, InterDigital is developing a comprehensive set of advanced solutions that will help shape the future of wireless. Using a holistic approach to solving network congestion, InterDigital is focused on three comprehensive areas of bandwidth innovations: spectrum optimization; cross-network connectivity and mobility; and intelligent data delivery techniques. The company's advanced solutions directly benefit component, device and infrastructure manufacturers, network operators, content and applications providers, and billions of consumers globally.

Interested parties are invited to visit the InterDigital stand (#30271) in the South Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Members from the media and investment community and industry analysts are recommended to contact jack.indekeu@interdigital.com to schedule a meeting in advance.
