Siemens and Vodafone enter into cooperation for IP-based mobile
networks
September 9, 2002
Siemens and Vodafone have signed a cooperative agreement with the
aim of jointly developing and testing SIP-based (Session Initiation
Protocol) multimedia application scenarios for 3G mobile telephony.
The basis for this activity is the standardized and flexibly scalable
platform Siemens IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS).
Through this cooperation, Siemens and Vodafone underlines the significance
of an uniform, standardized platform for future mobile services.
In contrast to previous client-server constellations, the Siemens
IP Multimedia Subsystem is not a proprietary solution, but rather
a solution standardized via the 3rd Generation Partnership Project
(3GPP). This offers providers substantial cost benefits. For instance,
as the number of users increases, the Siemens IMS can grow through
integration of additional components, without the need to change
systems. It can also accommodate an ever increasing number of applications
through simple integration of new servers.
Additional advantages result from the use of the widespread Internet
Protocol (IP) for data transport. Thus the services offered can
be made available to all packet-switched connections (such as W-LAN,
GPRS, and UMTS) - and thus to a broad base of users. In addition,
new applications such as local or presence information can be connected
to existing network services at low cost.
The Siemens IP Multimedia Subsystem supports an expanded range
of mobile services through person-to-person communication. Interaction
and communication options - including chat, games with multiple
players, and joint use of business applications - are available
to users via a single login. The user can also select a personal
profile, for example, in order to separate work and leisure activities.
