SOUTHAMPTON, UK -- Roke Manor Research Ltd (Roke) today launches its LTE MAC Scheduler for base stations. Vendors developing Long Term Evolution (LTE) equipment can integrate Roke’s smart technology to optimise network performance, enhance user experience and reduce service delivery costs for mobile network operators.

Roke has developed mobile communication technology for Siemens since the 1990’s and has over 50 years of commercial and military communications experience. The launch of the LTE MAC Scheduler marks a new phase, with Roke using its handset and base station expertise to develop solutions for the wider mobile communications market.

The success of the smartphone, netbook and mobile broadband has dramatically increased traffic on existing mobile networks. The next generation of packet-switched LTE networks offers a solution, however this relies on the efficient and intelligent use of a key asset – spectrum. Roke’s LTE MAC Scheduler will enable mobile network operators to optimise spectrum utilisation through the efficient and intelligent use of the air interface.
