Kineto Wireless has released a whitepaper about Voice over LTE via generic access (GAN) (VoLGA). The paper discusses why mobile operators are looking to the 3GPP GAN standard to deliver core telephony and SMS services over LTE.
According to the whitepaper, leveraging the 3GPP GAN standard as the basis for voice and SMS service delivery over LTE has a number of advantages:
- Investment protection
- Proven service core
- Low-operational disruption
- Based on an existing 3GPP standard
- Minimal impact to handset manufacturers
