Huawei SingleEPC to Build User Experience-Centric LTE Network
Huawei today announced at the 2012 LTE World Summit a new company vision, BON (Business, Operation and Network), for focusing on mobile broadband user experience. BON was introduced in a speech given by Xu Weizhong, Huawei President of Packet Core Networks for the Wireless Network Business Unit.
e saFor the Business part of BON, the idea is to build up open networks and open services. As an example, by opening network info to the end user, like network speeds, network availability (for GPRS, UMTS, LTE and WiFi) as well as subscription status, users are free to monitor network quality themselves, and potentially buy specific subscription packages based on usage needs and wants. Huawei demonstrated its Networker solution based on the SingleEPC network solution during the 2012 Mobile World Congress to realize the aforementioned requirements to definitively improve user experience.
For the Operation part of BON, Huawei created models for KPIs (Key Performance Indicator) and CEIs (Customer Experience Indicator) to improve user experience. For the Network part of BON, Huawei is committed to deploying solutions that support ultra-broadband, zero-waiting and ubiquitous connectivity to ease network bandwidth bottlenecks and ensure end-to-end user experience.
