WiFi-Cellular Radio Co-location – Saves Time and Money

The massive penetration of smartphones and cellular-enabled tablets has led to an exponential growth in mobile data usage, and mobile infrastructure capacity can’t always keep up.  As a result, mobile operators often seek cost-effective solutions to offload mobile data from their cellular networks.  This can be accomplished through a variety of means such as installing small cells, but using SuperWi-Fi™ can often prove more cost effective, faster to deploy and more simple to maintain.

Cellular Data Offload

WiFi technology is one of the most logical options for addressing this challenge given that all mobile devices have an embedded WiFi client.

Krysp Wireless offers Altai Technologies’ complete solution for cost-effective cellular data offloading that allows for seamless hand-off from the cellular network to SuperWi-Fi™.  And, due to advanced interference mitigation technology, Altai’s SuperWi-Fi™ base stations are unique in that they can co-exist within just 50 centimeters of a cellular radio without compromising the performance of either the cellular radio or the Altai SuperWi-Fi™ base station.  This aspect of Altai’s product line saves operators significant money through avoidance of additional tower space and often additional fiber backhaul and power delivery.

Benefits:

• WiFi-cellular radio co-location saves on site resources such as backhaul, power and location rental
• Fast and simple deployment, through its integrated radio and antenna unit, and no risk of cross interference
• Up to 90% reduction in the number of WiFi access point due to  tenfold coverage compared with standard access point technology
• Seamless user authenticate and connectivity to the WiFi base station, based on the mobile device’s SIM card credentials maintaining the same user experience as with the cellular connection
• Improved user experience through consistent high performance and high capacity WiFi connectivity
