A Nokia sale of mobile, especially to the US, would be nuts
Nokia's hiring of Intel's Justin Hotard to be its new CEO has set tongues wagging again about a mobile exit, but it would look counterintuitive and inadvisable.
Tektronix Communications reduces LTE core testing complexity and cost
April 16, 2013
PLANO, Texas -- Tektronix Communications, the world’s first telecommunications intelligence provider, today announced the development of Spectra2 XL3, an advanced tool for testing evolved packet core (EPC) and IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) elements for mobile LTE and fixed IP networks. Spectra2 XL3 enables equipment manufacturers and service providers to markedly reduce the capital and operational costs associated with testing IMS and EPC elements.As mobile service providers plan and expand complex LTE and mixed 3G/LTE networks globally, they must test multiple dimensions of their network, including Diameter signaling, which is a critical protocol for monetizing the network. As smart mobile devices proliferate, applications accessing the network at higher speeds can create Diameter signaling storms that slow or halt service delivery and ultimately impacts revenue generation and subscriber Quality of Experience (QoE).Spectra2 XL3 enables the industry’s highest EPC test capacity for Diameter and IMS protocols with high-load media testing to benchmark performance, and resolve problems before they arise on live networks. It is the first single 2U solution that equips a multi discipline test team involved with numerous network technologies to simultaneously execute their test plans. Tektronix Inc.
