Fracton Technologies – Best Telecom Product winner 2015
Fracton’s MaxCell is a multi-vendor, multi-technology automated solution that dynamically optimizes key cell database parameters at cell level, thereby boosting system performance while minimizing CapEx & OpEx.
Each cell in the network requires an optimal configuration for cell database parameters. These parameters need to be
configured uniquely for each cell and optimized dynamically. In order to extract the optimal performance of the deployed network infrastructure, it is necessary to address the optimization of these parameters on a periodic basis for each individual cell.
Fracton’s MaxCell is a multi-vendor & multi parameters at cell level, thereby boosting system performance while minimizing CapEx & OpEx. It is designed to integrate into the operators’ existing system and fully automates the overall parameter optimization process, resulting in a continuous cycle of network optimization performance, improved spectral efficiency and improved capital efficiency.
By providing the MaxCell with network configuration and statistics from the OSS, it is possible to fine tune the performance that directly improves the end user experience.
MaxCell has consistently provided remarkable performance improvement in the field. Deployment of the tool can instantly be done & complete cycle of optimization can be completed within a fortnight.
MaxCell is available for GSM and UMTS networks, including the interworking between these systems.
Areas of Focus
- Dynamically Redistribution of traffic, in order to reduce the need for hardware upgrades in the network.
