VoIP and Cellular on the Move Together
VoIP and Cellular on the Move Together
The realization has taken root that mobilized VoIP and cellular services will complement and not compete with each other. Unlicensed mobile access is the tie that will bind these two platforms, enabling phone calls started on one to move to the other and back seamlessly. Allied Business Intelligence says there will be 100 million Wi-Fi-enabled mobile handsets in the field by 2009. Particularly in Europe, there is an increasing move of subscribers from traditional fixed lines to VoIP and/or cellular service. There are myriad infrastructure and device issues related to running Wi-Fi and cellular on the same network. Two industry groups � the Wi-Fi Alliance and CTIA-The Wireless Association � said earlier this month that they will develop and promote certification programs for cell phones that provide both Wi-Fi and cellular functionality. The initial focus will be on radio frequency performance mapping in an environment in which both networks are operational.
