Accelerating 4G Migration
2
VoLTE is An Inevitable Choice due to 2G/3G Migrating to 4G
#1 Spectrum aggregation
2G/3G spectrum release and make it as a thin network for roaming service and etc.
Now 2020+
LTE LTE
LTE
2G/3G 2G/3G
#2 Simple network and saving cost
More and more operators chose to close 2G or 3G, to avoid operating more than 3 networks

VoLTE Booming under Low Band Spectrum Refarming
VoLTE offload voice traffic from LB Spectrum while 2G voices service mainly stay on LB
LB Spectrum gives continuous converge for VoLTE

10 Tasks for VoLTE Network Reconstruction
SN Field Task
1 Diameter signaling network Deploy session DRAs provided the same vendor in pairs.

2 EPC-HSS/IMS-HSS/HLR Upgrade and reconstruct the HSS/HLR on the live network to support IMS-HSS. If the
convergence reconstruction HSS/HLR on the live network does not support the convergent HLR/HSS, deploy new
ones.
3 IMS Core construction and Deploy or reconstruct the I/S-CSCF, MGCF, and ENUM DNS on the live IMS network.
reconstruction
4 CS/PS core network upgrade and Configure the MSC, MME, and SAE-GW to support eSRVCC and IPv6 addresses.
reconstruction
5 4G PCC network upgrade and Upgrade the PCRF and PCEF to support VoLTE dedicated bearers.
reconstruction
6 Service platform building and Deploy the service platform, such as ATS. Reconstructs the platforms of intelligent
intelligent network reconstruction network, SMS, CRBT, mobile printing, and LSP services.
7 IP bearer network upgrade and Reconstruct devices on the IP bearer network to support IPv6 addresses.

Key Learning 2: Initial Wireless Coverage Designing for Data,
Need to be Enhanced for VoLTE
Real-time voice requires better wireless coverage and quality than data
Experience from CMCC TDD: Voice: -113dBm > Data: -118dBm
Weak coverage area
• Low voice quality
• High drop rate
• Single pass…
