BARCELONA (MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS - Booth 5E70) – February 25, 2013 – Ruckus Wireless, Inc. (NYSE: RKUS) today outlined its SmartCell™ Architecture, a unique recipe for creating carrier class Wi-Fi networks to deal with the densification challenge sweeping the industry.
Ruckus Wireless has been selected by Telefonica UK (O2) to supply high-capacity small cell products for high-speed wireless services being deployed throughout London, the company announced today.
The expansion and evolution of cellular networks over the past decades has been astounding. Networks initially designed for voice traffic have grown to accommodate increasingly high data-traffic loads. This growth has long relied on a network of macro cells to provide a good balance of wireless coverage and capacity.
The rapid increase of mobile data services, driven by smartphones and tablets, has accelerated data-traffic growth to the point where macro cellular networks are no longer sufficient to meet subscriber demand in many high-density settings.
