Mobile Connectivity Optimization

Exponential growth in data traffic is taxing cellular network capacities to the limits and threatening to degrade user experience. Smart traffic offloading from congested 3G/4G networks to Wi-Fi with the Living Systems Connection Agent or the Living Systems SmartShift Mobile IP component is a cost-effective and reliable solution that delivers fast relief and ensures an optimized end-user experience.

Seamless Handover and Wifi OffloadThe rise of application-rich smartphones and the widespread adoption of 3G modules in laptops and netbooks put mobile operators in a challenging position. Pressure on cellular network capacity is increasing with mobile data traffic expected to continue exponential growth through the next few years.

Reconciling this rapidly increasing demand with maintaining high-quality customer experience and combatting fierce price competition requires cost-effective measures that preserve CAPEX and deliver results fast.

Whitestein has many years of experience in serving major mobile network operators (MNO) with highly scalable, standards-based solutions:

  • The Living Systems Connection Agent (LS/CA) is a white-label connection manager for operators that want to serve their end-users with no-hassle, one-click connectivity and seamless handover between 3G/4G and Wi-Fi networks, while offloading select cellular data traffic to Wi-Fi.
  • The Living Systems SmartShift Mobile IP module is a modular component for extending any connection management software with advanced capabilities for smart traffic offload and seamless vertical handover between cellular and Wi-Fi.
