China Telecom is set to invest 6 billion yuan to complete the 3G network in the city. A third of this will be used to enhance signal coverage and establish a high-speed mobile Internet. There will be 2000 terminal stations in the city by the end of the year. China Telecom's 3G service is based on CDMA technology.
