MulteFire Helps Alleviate Network Congestion By Opening Up New Connectivity Routes
Networks worldwide are working to navigate the growing demand for high data capacities and content downloads. As our reliance on the Internet and interconnectivity deepens, data traffic is expected to continue increasing in every market, operators and businesses alike are seeking a cost-effective solution to cater to this surge in demand.
One potential avenue for meeting the demand is leveraging the unlicensed spectrum. However, with multiple technologies and users vying for limited resources, network congestion can be detrimental to a seamless and high-quality user experience. The issue becomes particularly pronounced in situations with high user density, such as homes with numerous guests and large numbers of internet-connected devices or workplaces where heavy data traffic occurs due to a large user base.
Since LTE was initially designed to deliver high-performance mobile broadband in densely deployed networks, industry leaders and innovators are now considering whether the advantages of LTE can be fully realized using unlicensed spectrum alone.
What Is MulteFire?
With limited access to licensed spectrum or the need for additional capacity to complement existing networks, Nokia MulteFire emerges as an ideal solution. By utilizing unlicensed spectrum to deliver the high performance and reliability of 4G LTE while simplifying deployment processes, MulteFire allows organizations to enhance coverage, range, capacity, and mobility while ensuring compliance with global Wi-Fi coexistence regulations.
Additionally, while MulteFire expands the availability of LTE to the unlicensed spectrum, it also ensures that other technologies – such as Wi-Fi – are able to utilize the spectrum simultaneously. This approach provides opportunities for deploying small cells, particularly in densely populated environments and indoor locations where network congestion is a common challenge, and offers a cost-effective and efficient solution for enterprises, operators, and various industries.
What Is The MulteFire Alliance?
Nokia’s commitment to globalizing and commercializing MulteFire is evident in its role as a founding member of the MulteFire Alliance. This international consortium is dedicated to advocating the adoption of private networks in any available spectrum on a global scale. With Nokia’s MulteFire technology at the forefront, the alliance aims to empower organizations with the tools they need to leverage private wireless solutions effectively.
Benefits of MulteFire
By embracing Nokia MulteFire, organizations can unlock unlicensed spectrum for their specific use cases and augment existing locally licensed spectrum solutions. MulteFire ensures carrier-grade quality, security, and availability while delivering high capacity, extensive coverage, and robust security features, enabling organizations to meet their connectivity requirements efficiently.
Additionally, MulteFire offers a simplified deployment processes and user-friendly network and device management, eliminating the need for complex hetnet layer optimization. It also eliminates spectrum costs, providing a cost-effective solution for organizations seeking to expand their industrial applications.
