    BTS and Radisys demonstrate small cell 4G LTE network in a box

    -

    BTS Corporation and Radisys Corporation say they have demonstrated a small cell 4G LTE network in a box. The CoreTx solution and Trillium software deliver commercial grade 4G LTE technologies in harsh operating environments, enabling their customers to develop and rapidly deploy end-to-end  4G  LTE cellular networks.

    Running with BTS’ Praefectus – now a government owned product –  the CoreTx Evolved Packet System, Radisys’ Trillium LTE core network software and ruggedised COM Express modules, BTS demonstrated the following CoreTx capabilities:
    ·         LTE small cell 4G technology (approx. 4lb.)
    ·         Next generation HSPA+
    ·         Advanced Self Organizing Network (SON)
    ·         Spectrum survey, jammer avoidance and frequency de-confliction
    ·         Dynamic core network optimized for highly mobile scenarios
    ·         Software defined radio with dramatically reduced size, weight and power
    ·         Intelligent routing to enable mobility and 3GPP standardized communication
    ·         Real time cellular management utilizing government owned Praefectus mission management software

    With a 3G cellular solution already deployed in Afghanistan, BTS is a provider of small form factor, ruggedised cellular technology. Its next generation CoreTx solution is designed to provide cost-effective and quickly deployable 4G cellular networks.

    “Since the company’s formation, BTS has been dedicated to providing the smallest form factor, rapidly deployable self-organising cellular network and we are proud to introduce CoreTx,” said Alex Watson, BTS Chief Technology Officer. “CoreTx not only provides cellular service in areas that need it most, but delivers both 4G HSPA+ and LTE capabilities, allowing our customers to continue to leverage their 3G investments and to utilize the most advanced cellular technology currently on the market.”

    Radisys supplies Trillium small cell software, Trillium 3G and LTE core network software and platforms, ruggedised COM Express modules and professional services to enable fast deployment. Its technology is based on 3GPP standards, which offers interoperability of battlefield cellular networks and support for commercially available mobile handsets. Trillium solutions offer flexible architecture, which enables complete self-contained collapsed 3G core network elements such as SGSN, GGSN, MSC, HLR/VLR and more. Radisys COM Express modules are compact, ruggedized, and rated for extended temperature operation, which makes them ideal for battlefield deployments.  

    “Battlefield cellular networks require all-inclusive solutions that must meet the stringent requirements of aerospace and defense suppliers,” said Todd Mersch, director of Trillium software and solutions business unit, Radisys. “These collapsed cellular networks require flexible architectures for wider deployments, standards compliance for interoperability with other cellular networks and support for commercially available mobile handsets. Radisys’ end-to-end embedded wireless infrastructure solutions meet these requirements.”
