LTE - Introduction
LTE (Long Term Evolution) – foundation of 4G
All IP and Higher Bandwidth, low latency.
Enhances existing 3G UMTS
Efficiently supports multi-antenna technologies (MIMO).
High bandwidth—up to 20 MHz.
Scalable, LTE can operate in the existing 5-MHz UMTS
frequency bands, or in even smaller bands.
LTE – the end of Circuit Switch
LTE is an all-IP mobile network
No support for ‘traditional’ CS domain voice
New Voice and SMS solutions required
The future of operators
Top 25 LTE Operators Will Reach Over 200
million LTE Subscribers by 2015
CAPEX spending to reach $14 billion in 2015
- Maravedis research
Operators today face real challenges
Future of voice service usage:
Migration of customers towards mobile
VoIP solutions over their data networks
The App Store:
Services that run on the network are
not controlled by the network operator.
LTE:
All about IP connectivity. Need a solution for
traditional voice and SMS services.
Significantly improves network's quality – operators are
becoming "dumb" data pipes
Operators need to be able to provide new services
and stay relevant!
The Solution - IMS
The enabler for operators to continue to be the
service provider of all services over LTE.
Reliable, QoS, Secure,
Service Continuity, Roaming.
IMS will materialize –
the operators simply have
no other choice.
VoLTE - Voice over LTE
IMS profile
Started as “One Voice”
Initiative of 18 operators and handset vendors
GSMA adopted it
Work continues on the initial “One Voice” draft
Renamed to “VoLTE”
IMTC IMS Activity Group was selected by
“OneVoice” initiative to develop VoLTE test
specification.
VoLTE - Introduction
VoLTE profile defines a minimum mandatory
set of features in order to guarantee an
interoperable, high quality IMS-based telephony
service over LTE access networks
Voice and SMS in first stage - fast to fight new
options for mobile VoIP
“smart pipe” vs “dumb pipe”

How Will Networks Migrate to LTE?
Networks will not switch overnight from GSM and 3G to
LTE.
Operators will need to provide service continuity
VCC = Voice Call Continuity
SMS
Need to integrate new technologies to stay relevant
Operators making the move with different approaches.
IMS - Introduction
IP Multimedia Subsystem
Designed to provide flexible multimedia services anytime
and everywhere
Part of the core network, with interfaces to other
subsystems in the network
Technical specifications by GPP/3GPP2/TISPAN/Packet
Cable and others
Enables to ensure secure, reliable,
interoperable, roamed, services with QoS
How?
An architecture for IP based next generation service and
call control
Layered, functional architecture
Open application development framework
Common authentication, authorization and accounting
framework
Common media control and network management
functions
An architecture that will be used in all networks
Cellular
Fixed carrier networks
WiMax networks
Packet Cable networks
LTE
IMS is happening now!
By 2011 80% of surveyed service providers will run voice over IMS
(Infonetics).
Common IMS – Adopted by Cellular (3GPP/3GPP2), LTE, Fixed
Line (TISPAN), Cable (PacketCable 2.0), and WiMAX
A wide basic set of IMS standards which are identical to all networks.
Each access network has its own unique "flavor" added on top of it.
Key to IMS Application Success
Compliancy to the standards
Ensures interoperability
Easy deployment
“Worry-free” roaming
Smooth evolution to IMS SIP
Ability to add new IMS Services
IMS Compliancy Challenges
Many new network entities
Many new protocol requirements
New interfaces
Different access networks each behaving differently –
Cellular, Wireless, Fixed Line, Cable, LTE, WiMAX
New standards constantly added upon and revised
New Services in IMS Release 9
Public Warning System,
Earthquake and Tsunami
Warning System (ETWS)
Service Specific Access Control
Machine to Machine Network Improvements
New Deployment & Migration Scenarios in
IMS Release 9
Circuit Switched to VOIP, Service continuity
