Kineto and Bravo Tech Demonstrate TD-SCDMA Femtocell Solution
Companies confirm Iuh interoperability; prepare for TD-SCDMA-based femtocell trials
Milpitas, Calif., June 8, 2010
Kineto Wireless, Inc., the key innovator and leading supplier of solutions that enable delivery of mobile services over broadband, and Bravo Tech Inc., a leading provider of coverage and RF solutions to the mobile industry, today announced the companies are demonstrating an end-to-end TD-SCDMA-based femtocell solution at a facility in Shanghai.
As part of the demonstration, the companies recently conducted interoperability testing between the Kineto Multi-Service Access Gateway (MSA-GW) configured as a Femtocell Gateway and Bravo Tech’s TD-SCDMA femtocell based on the Iuh interface defined in the 3GPP Home NodeB (HNB) specification.
“Interoperability testing has progressed very smoothly,” said Dong Wu, CTO with Bravo Tech. “The maturity of Kineto’s Iuh implementation in its Multi-Service Access Gateway, along with our full-featured Iuh compliant femtocell, has enabled the companies to quickly demonstrate a deployment-ready solution.”
TD-SCDMA is a 3GPP-standard, 3G radio link technology adopted primarily in China. In January 2009, China Mobile was awarded a 3G/TD-SCDMA license by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
Kineto’s MSA-GW provides mobile service providers a range of options for improving coverage and offloading the macro network. It is uniquely designed to provide maximum flexibility and investment protection by supporting femtocells and Wi-Fi, the two key coverage and offload technologies utilized today. Kineto’s MSA-GW is deployed worldwide in commercial Wi-Fi and femtocell service offers.
