Huawei today announced the launch of FusionNet, a new generation of network architecture for LTE-B, and next-generation SingleEPC solution at the 2013 Mobile World Congress (MWC). According to company, LTE-B architecture improves Cell Edge User (CEU) throughput by at least 500% with a series of multi-RAT, multi-band and multi-layer HetNet enhancements, where as the SingleEPC solution utilizes ultra-broadband, 6-mode atom-level convergence and a Multi-Service Engine to optimize mobile broadband (MBB) service experience enabling a smooth evolution to a telecom cloud.

Huawei outlines that it’s FusionNet concept for LTE-B comprises several core technologies, including multi-stream aggregation, interference coordination, traffic adaption and spectrum efficiency optimization. FusionNet coordinates existing LTE and LTE-A deployments and technologies (including CoMP and carrier aggregation) and delivers a fusion of multi-RAT, multi-band and multi-layer networks. A core benefit of FusionNet is its ability to drastically reduce network CAPEX and OPEX.

The SingleEPC solution supports a convergent PS core for multiple radio access modes, including GPRS, UMTS, LTE-FDD, LTE-TDD, CDMA and WiFi. The solution supports the dynamic implementation of traffic models for 6-mode access technologies and optimizes PS core network resources. In addition, it enables 64 times more signaling overload control than the previous generation. The solution also provides an LTE voice solution to provide a superior voice experience with low setup latency, clear HD voice quality, and highly reliable voice connections.

Also at MWC 2013, Huawei unveiled its Ultra Node prototype design for future mobile broadband base stations. Ultra Node enhances the spectrum utilization and overall network efficiency to achieve a 50 Gbps peak data speed in a single node.
