When in 1983 the wireless communication expansion began, TESS Inc. was ready to stand the competition. Nowadays, there are more than eighty five million subscribers in the world and every two seconds a new subscriber is being added.
There are more than twenty four million subscribers of the wireless services in the United States. Seventy one billion dollars has been invested in the infrastructure, eighty two thousand base station sites "delivering the message." Today, there is a splendid convergence of wireless, wireline, computing and Internet technologies, and networks. Due to this convergence, there is an opportunity for an access to voice, messaging, data, computing, Internet, video, location, and imaging information. Conventional telephony "wired" in-building systems and a "last mile" interconnect stand to be replaced by cost-effective wireless systems.
