High-speed data will be introduced in
TETRA networks, Nokia believes
Extension of TETRA standard promises ten times faster data for TETRA
networks
At the annual TETRA World Congress held in Vienna, Austria, Nokia unveiled
its high-speed data vision for TETRA. Nokia's choice is to integrate high-speed
data capability seamlessly into the Nokia TETRA System. In the future,
Nokia TETRA System is planned to offer high-speed data services in addition
to currently available TETRA services.
Nokia is focused on taking an integrated approach, which means that bringing
high-speed capability into an existing Nokia TETRA network would not require
an overlay network or additional network elements. This will secure the
customers' capital investments. In addition, because the integrated approach
results in single user and service provisioning, billing and management
for all TETRA services, including high-speed data, it will also optimise
operational expenditure, which can form as much as 80% of the total cost
of ownership of a network.
What's more, the goal is to develop TETRA high-speed data as a software
feature, upgradeable over a remote connection to the Nokia TB3 TETRA base
station. This means that planning the TETRA network for a subsequent high-speed
data upgrade today can achieve enormous savings later.
"These strategic goals are an answer to future needs. We predict
not only that high-speed data will bring more value to customers, but
that high-speed data will in fact become essential," says Matti Peltola,
Vice President, Professional Mobile Radio, Nokia. "Taking advantage
of developments in mobile data services will provide TETRA users with
a growth path and leading-edge technical solutions. And Nokia TETRA customer
will be best positioned to fully exploit these developments".
Nokia TETRA System is a complete solution, which provides a full range
of voice and data services as well as first-class security to the users.
Nokia has a proven track record in delivering multi-exchange TETRA networks
capable of providing all TETRA services seamlessly and uniformly countrywide.
The open interfaces of Nokia TETRA solutions enable true integration to
command and control systems. Nokia continues investing in TETRA radio
technology and systems for the benefit of present and future customers.
