iOS 4.2 For iPhone Supports New Network Technology That Improves Battery Life And Minimizes Congestion

According to Nokia Siemans, one of the world's top cellular companies, claimed today that the new iOS 4.2.1 that has just been released couple of days back, contains a type of technology called network-controlled fast dormancy or known as (NCFD). NCFD speeds up the networking performance and optimizes how the iOS device connects to a network. This also helps for less network utilities.
 
Nokia Siemens Network reveals the following details in a blog post:
All this disconnecting and reconnecting takes time and can cause a frustratingly slow network response. On the other hand, leaving the smartphone in an active mode all the time drains the battery very quickly. To overcome the problem Nokia Siemens Networks introduced a method that, instead of putting the handset into idle or keeping it always active, keeps the handset in an intermediate state. From here, a smartphone can wake up much more quickly and needs to send far fewer signals to and from the network to start a data connection. You get a fast network response and a longer battery life.
Nokia has also been putting this type of amazing technology in their phones this year. Now in iOS 4.2.1, Apple has this too. This will make Apple's iOS 4.2.1 excel greatly for the new networking system and technology. Interestingly, Nokia has implemented this cutting edge method through tests instead of working with Apple on this design. It certainly seems that Apple would have benefited by engaging infrastructure companies early.

Nokia Siemens Network claims that one of the operators in the Middle East has observed that smartphones on networks using their technology had a battery life of 11 hours compared to six hours on a competing network. They also claim that their smart networks generate up to 50 percent less smartphone signaling, which reduces network congestion.
