Opanga Networks, a leading provider of network optimization software solutions for mobile operators (MNOs), announced commercial availability of the company’s latest generation of software-based RAN densification solutions.

These solutions target the ever-increasing cycle of spectrum shortages, growing costs of network densification, and declines in consumer experience resulting from 100 percent year-over-year traffic growth on mobile networks.

Opanga’s newest generation of Radio Aware (v)EPC software technologies include:

 - Second-by-second Self Organizing Networks (SoN) enablement

 - Self-organizing traffic optimizationTraffic-aware cell site load-balancing

 - Traffic-aware carrier aggregation

 - Throughput-guided (congestion-aware) Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) optimization

These instant-response throughput increases are critical in a time and industry where capital efficiency is fundamental to long-term profitability. Spectrum utilization and quality of experience are of core concern and software is integral to managing skyrocketing traffic demand. The elegance of software solutions in the network core is their ubiquity across RAN vendors (e.g. Ericsson, Nokia, Huawei) and network technologies (e.g. 3G, 4G, 5G).

Like the company’s first-generation solution, Opanga’s newest technologies are 100 percent software-deployed in the (v)EPC.

Dave Gibbons, CEO, Opanga Networks
Our customers often are surprised that during a one-hour maintenance window they can launch our software network-wide and see an immediate and significant increase, up to 40 percent in subscriber throughput measured in their eNodeB RAN KPIs.
