SmarTone first to trial Ericsson's unique Targeted App Experience
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
* Ericsson's Targeted App Experience enables mobile broadband operators to
provide consistently great app experience for targeted content, making
content a new dimension in the creation of innovative service offerings
* Targeted App Experience is available with the Ericsson Network Software 15B
release featured at MWC 2015 in Barcelona
Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) today announced the completion of a trial of Targeted
App Experience together with operator SmarTone, Hong Kong. App experience has
become a key differentiator among mobile broadband operators. These days users
care a great deal about time-to-content and smooth video playout - no longer
only about dropped voice calls. The trial results show that app experience is
impacted even at medium traffic loads, and that load levels in a radio cell
often vary greatly over just a few milliseconds.
Stephen Chau, Chief Technology Officer of SmarTone, says: "The trial has proven
that Ericsson's Targeted App Experience significantly reduces time-to-content so
that web page download becomes faster. At the same time it also ensures a great
level of consistency in user experience independent of traffic load."
Ericsson's Targeted App Experience becomes available with the previously
announced Ericsson Network Software 15B release featured at MWC 2015 in
Barcelona. It builds on technology that has been standardized by 3GPP for VoLTE,
and connects the LTE / 3G shared radio channel scheduler to the operator's
policy control system. This enables mobile operators to provide great app
experience for targeted content while at same time maximizing the utilization of
their spectrum assets.
Thomas Norén, Vice President and Head of Radio Product Management, Ericsson says
"We are proud to be able to work together with SmarTone in trialing our latest
technology. SmarTone sets high demands on superior network performance and has a
strong focus on user experience. With our new Targeted App Experience we
leverage our strength as a provider of end-to-end solutions. The unique solution
combines software features across our market leading product portfolio spanning
across LTE and 3G radio access, Evolved Packet Core, and Policy and Charging
Control."
In addition to Targeted App Experience, Ericsson recently launched the
complementary App Experience Optimization service.
