DUBLIN, Dec. 1, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/f55hlz/voice_over_lte) has announced the addition of the "Voice over LTE Market by Long-Term Evolution, by Technology, and by Geography - Analysis & Forecast to 2014 - 2020" report to their offering.
Voice over LTE is perceived as a long term strategic solution for LTE, which makes use of IMS call control as defined by 3GPP TS 23.228 for LTE voice services delivery. IMS offers legacy voice services such as call originating or terminating, calling line identification, and supplementary services; as well as value added, advanced multimedia services such as video sharing.
Voice over LTE is becoming a popular technology as it provides a win-win situation for both the entities; that is, the mobile network operators and the subscribers.LTE offers twice the spectral efficiency of 3G/HSPA and more than six times efficiency as that of the GSM technology; this allows allocating more bandwidth for more data services. Reuse of existing 2G and 3G spectrum reduces the need for new spectrum.Optimization of network and simplification of service delivery help to reduce costs.
Operators are able to deliver new set of standards-based services referred to as rich communication services, which include services such as video calling, file transferring, real time language translation, video voice mail, and instant messaging. It reduces time to connect voice over LTE call and it also has improved battery life over other VoIP applications; these parameters help to gain a competitive position in the market against OTT providers.
This report describes the market trends, drivers, restraints, opportunities, and challenges for the voice over LTE market; and forecasts the LTE and voice over LTEmarket from 2014 to 2020 on the basis of the technology, end-user devices, and geography. This report covers geographies such as Americas, Europe, APAC, and ROW (Rest of the World).
In the long term evolution subscriptions market, FDD LTE subscriptions held the largest share; while in voice over LTE market,the CSFB technology accounted for the largest share, followed by VoIMS, in 2013;the situation is expected to reverse by 2020.Americas is the leader in the LTE market whilethe APAC region is the leader in the voice over LTE market.
