América Móvil Launches World's First SDR-based GSM/UMTS Converged Network Using Huawei's SingleRAN Solution
Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. ("Huawei"), a leader in providing next-generation telecommunications network solutions for operators around the world, and América Móvil (AMX), the leading provider of wireless services in Latin America, today announced that América Móvil has launched the world's first SDR (Software Defined Radio)-based GSM/UMTS converged network in Panama. The new state-of-the-art network uses Huawei's SingleRAN solution, which allows AMX to simultaneously provide end-users with reliable voice and data services from GSM and UMTS 1900 MHz based networks at the same time.
Huawei's solution for AMX is end-to-end — from network planning to network
deployment. Using Huawei's SDR-based 4th generation base station, AMX's GSM and UMTS services can now be supported simultaneously from a single BTS (base transceiver station). When user demands need to be shifted between GSM and UMTS services, the SingleRAN solution enables AMX to realize effective operation and management through a simple software update.
The commercial launch of GSM/UMTS in Panama represents a major milestone for AMX. AMX's customers will now be able to experience enriched communications services including rich voice, video and data services in Panama.
"We are honored to have been selected by América Móvil to help them launch the world's first SDR-based GSM/UMTS network," said Mr. Zhang Shunmao, President of Huawei Latin America. "Huawei's 4th generation BTS is the centerpiece of Huawei's SingleRAN wireless solution which is bringing enormous advantages to operators such as América Móvil."
Huawei's unique SingleRAN solution enables operators to achieve full convergence of multi-mode wireless networks, including base stations, base station controllers, sites and operation and maintenance management. SDR is used to configure the radio frequency operating parameters through software. Currently, different radio technology standards can be managed at the same frequency band.
