KT, Intel and Samsung to Show off the First LTE CCC Solution at Mobile World Congress 2011
KT, a representative service provider in South Korea, Intel and
Samsung, jointly announced will demonstrate the world?s first
live-air LTE solutions based on Cloud Communication Center (CCC)
network technology at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2011 in Barcelona, Spain.
They also plan an LTE trial test in the third quarter of this year in
South Korea.
At MWC, KT, Intel, and Samsung will demonstrate a Full-HD 3D video streaming using LTE solutions based on CCC prototype systems. For this demonstration, Samsung will utilize its commercial-ready LTE end-to-end solution and commercial servers powered by Intel architecture, a general purpose processor platform.
LTE CCC is a network technology converging cloud computing and telecommunications. It is claimed to enable enhancement of data traffic capacity and network flexibility while reducing an operator?s total costs for network deployment and operation.
With CCC architecture, Radio Unit (RU), which is placed in its own local site, only performs radio transmissions and Digital Unit (DU) connected to RU via a wired network such as optical fiber carries out all communication signals processing with Intel architecture based servers and Samsung modems in a centralized communication center. This minimizes the real estate costs and operations personnel required to manage equipment at the local site, and allows for more cost-effective centralized operations management.
CCC architecture applies virtualization technologies which enable the management of overall network conditions at the communication center, so that operators not only can effectively allocate radio resources by time and place according to the volume of data traffic, but also benefit from improving the scalability of network capacity.
In addition, CCC architecture allows operators to reduce the number of base stations required and support a smooth network migration to next generation mobile services. This is made possible by software-oriented development while avoiding the conventional approach of hardware-oriented system development.
The companies plan to begin their LTE trial test in the third quarter of this year in Seoul, South Korea, and will strengthen their partnership in CCC architecture to support multiple radio standards and expand the market around the globe in the future.
