German term
Weiterentwicklung
German to English
Tech/Engineering
Telecom(munications)
Es geht um die neueste Mobilfunktechnologie:
"High Speed Packet Access" (HSPA) ist eine Weiterentwicklung von UMTS.
Ich habe viele Begriffe für Weiterentwicklung gefunden (advancement, enhancement, further development, evolution), aber ich habe das Gefühl, dass hier keiner so richtig passt.

extension/improvement
Here this is how I would translate it
"HSPA is an extension/improvement in the performance of the existing UMTS protocols.

I'd suggest using a translation compatible with the following description:
High Speed Packet Access (HSPA)[1] is a collection of mobile telephony protocols that extend and improve the performance of existing UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) protocols. Two standards, HSDPA and HSUPA, have been established and a further standard, HSPA+, is soon to be released.
