Technical Details
The LG COSMOS™2is an all
digital phone that operates on
both Code Division Multiple
Access (CDMA) frequencies:
Cellular services at 800 MHz and
Personal Communication Services
(PCS) at 1.9 GHz.
CDMA technology uses a feature
called DSSS (Direct Sequence
Spread Spectrum) that enables thephone to keep communication
from being crossed and to use one
frequency channel by multiple
users in the same specific area.
This results in a 10fold capacity
increase when compared with
analog mode. In addition, features
such as soft / softer handoff, hard
handoff, and dynamic RF power
control technologies combine to
reduce call interruptions.
The Cellular and PCS CDMA
networks consist of MSO (Mobile
Switching Office), BSC (Base
Station Controller), BTS (Base
Station Transmission System), and
MS (Mobile Station). 
* TSB 74: Protocol between an IS
95A system and ANSI JSTD008
1xRTT system receives twice as
many subscribers in the wireless
section asIS95. Its battery life is
twice as long as IS95. Highspeed
data transmission is also possible.
The following table lists some
major CDMA standards.

electromagnetic energy emitted by
FCC regulated transmitters. Those
guidelines are consistent with the
safety standard previously set by
both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design ofthis phone complies with the FCC
guidelinesand these international
standards.Bodily Contact During Operation
This device was tested for typical
use with the back of the phone
kept 0.79 inches (2 cm) from the
body.To comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.79 inches
(2 cm) must be maintained
between the user’s body and the
back of the phone, including the
antenna, whether extended or
retracted. Thirdparty beltclips,
holsters, and similar accessories
