Fixed mobile convergence comes true; with mobile-featured ZTE Mixed Softswitch system and versatile IMS standard.(ZTE Mixed Softswitch System)(ZTE IP Multimedia Subsystem)

You are incredibly busy. So you would like mobile handset pre-programmed and personalized with speed dialing keys, electronic agenda or messaging services to function as your lifeline to contact with colleagues, family and friends wherever they are, anywhere and anytime. You would like your cordless phone sitting on your bureau at home or in your office to double as a fully-featured cellular handset so as to connect you to the fixed network within the range of your home base station but automatically shift to your expected mobile network the moment you close the garage door. You would also expect to have a single phone number on which you could be contacted wherever you are but charged in one phone bill covering all your telecommunications services while you are still able to surf the Web directly from your mobile, when you're away from your PC, but with a single and centralized customer care number for all your telecommunications needs.

This is no longer a pie in the sky. ZTE Corporation is at the moment doing something to help you meet these expectations. ZTE FMC (Fixed Mobile Convergence) Solution, catching up with currently one of the crucial strategic issues in the telecommunications industry, has found out the way to connect the mobile phone to the fixed line infrastructure. With the convergence between the mobile and fixed line networks, telecommunications operators can provide services to users irrespective of their location, access technology, and terminal! More exactly, ZTE will present you with a FMC Solution based on ZTE Mixed Softswitch System with an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) standard.

Characteristics of ZTE FMC Solutions Framework

Mobile-Featured ZTE Mixed Softswitch System Works as A Key FMC Merger ZTE Mixed Softswitch System can provide sophisticated solutions for combining fixed network with mobile network into a unified next generation network. The radio network based on Softswitch technology might share the similar architecture to that of fixed networks, consisting of service plane, control plane, core plane and access plane, so as to fulfill the functional separation missions, as shown in Fig 1. However, compared with fixed network based on Softswitch infrastructure, ZTE Mixed Softswitch architecture features more mobile networks. The most distinguished mobile-network feature is to adopt the wireless access method on the access plane. Another feature lies in the control plane, in that the specific functions with mobile-network features such as location management, database management and switch-over control can be provided to implement the users' mobile requirements in addition to the legacy fixed-network functions like subscriber registration and call control. Regarding the existing Softswitch infrastructure based on fixed network platform, the convergence means to increase new cellular functions in a simple way.
