Mobile broadband is becoming increasingly important to mobile operator strategies, driven by the rapid evolution of HSPA, EV-DO and LTE technologies. New mobile broadband subscriptions are soaring, as storage-rich, multimedia handsets drive exponential growth in mobile data traffic including video, music and mobile browsing.
The biggest challenge facing the operators is that mobile data revenues are not keeping pace with the soaring data traffic on their networks. While mobile data traffic is expected to increase by over 1000%, mobile data revenue is forecast to grow only by around 77%. This explosion in mobile data traffic will have a direct impact on the RAN and mobile core CapEx/OpEx. Therefore, mobile operators need solutions to control the rising infrastructure and content delivery costs.
The innovative Movik Content-Aware Mobile Edge solution addresses the fundamental and difficult challenge of scaling the RAN and mobile core CapEx/OpEx in a cost-effective fashion in response to explosive growth in data traffic, while meeting the performance expectations of a growing subscriber base. |
