GSM Voice Capacity Evolution With VAMOS

Alcatel-Lucent

Abstract:

"Ever-increasing GSM mobile traffic, coupled with flat or decreasing ARPU, obliges mobile operators to grow their network infrastructure. This trend pushes them to manage their costs from a global perspective and optimize investments in their Radio Access Network, including usage of their allocated radio spectrum. Voice services over Adaptive Multiuser channels on One Slot (VAMOS) is a 3GPP feature designed to increase the voice capacity of a GSM access network without further hardware investment by optimizing spectrum utilization, while reducing radio base station power consumption.

Alcatel-Lucent complete product portfolio is backward and forward compatible with VAMOS, which can be enabled by a software upgrade for fast and easy deployment at minimum cost. In addition, the full Alcatel-Lucent BSS portfolio is fully IP ready."
