China's telecommunications supervisor on Wednesday issued long-awaited third-generation (3G) mobile phone licenses to three mobile operators, a move that is expected to lead to billions of dollars being invested in building new networks.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) said China's biggest mobile operator, China Mobile, was awarded a license for TD-SCDMA, the domestically-developed 3G standard.

The other two main carriers, China Telecom and China Unicom, received licenses for the U.S.-developed CDMA2000 and Europe's WCDMA, respectively.

The 3G high-speed networks can handle faster data downloads, allowing handset users to make video calls and watch TV programs.

The government sees the development of 3G networks as an important step in boosting domestic demand and optimizing telecom market competition.

Industry analysts predicted fierce competition for 3G market share among the three carriers.

While WCDMA and CDMA2000 are viewed as having more mature 3G technology that's available around the world, the domestically developed TD-SCDMA has a government pledge of "strong support."

An on-line survey at on Wednesday found that 65 percent of the 130,000 respondents said they would choose 3G network service.

China Mobile leads the domestic telecom market with more than 400 million mobile users, two-thirds of the total.
