The document discusses network congestion issues faced by mobile operators and how Bytemobile's Mobile Internet Gateway can help address them. It notes that congestion typically occurs in dense urban areas during peak hours and managing capacity planning is challenging. As traffic volumes rise, users compete for limited network resources, degrading the user experience and potentially causing users to switch providers. Bytemobile's solution uses optimization techniques to expand effective network capacity, reduce costs, manage congestion through policy enforcement, and prioritize users to maintain quality of service - helping operators recapture bandwidth and revenue without requiring subscriber adoption.
