NSN upgrades EV-DO software

Nokia Siemens Networks upgrades Evolution Data Optimized (EV-DO) software to increase data capacity on CDMA. It has introduced a set of features to increase data capacity by up to 40% in loaded cells. This helps operators to economically manage greater data traffic volumes, without the need for hardware investment, but through a software upgrade.

Nokia Siemens Networks' EV-DO Advanced software comprises a number of capabilities which increase network capacity, deliver higher data rates and prioritize and allocate bandwidth better to improve overall network efficiency, said the company.

“We are focused on technologies that enable a superior mobile broadband experience, and EV-DO Advanced is one such development. It is a major driver of CDMA evolution and adding this to our portfolio reflects our strong commitment to the technology standard,” said Scott Mottonen, head of the CDMA/LTE business line, Nokia Siemens Networks.
