Best Practice Approaches to Implementing Either UMA or IMS/SIP for Femtocells | Presented by Certicom
5:00 PM CEST
11:00 AM ET
8:00 AM PT
Duration: 60 minutes
Cost: FREE
In the emerging Femtocell market - which will dramatically increase cell phone usage by boosting indoor signal strength - two implementation technologies are readily available: Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) backhauling and IMS/SIP. For vendors building Femtocells and associated products, either or both may be required depending on carrier requirements. For this reason, it is vital to understand the technical issues relating to both UMA and IMS/SIP.
This webinar does not take sides. Instead, it provides an in depth study of both approaches, with a particular focus on signaling and security challenges. Webinar attendees will gain a greater understanding of how to apply existing technology and learn best practice methods for integrating critical Femtocell components.
