Italtel Will Showcase Technology for Digital Transformation at MWC
MWC 2016

Italtel, along with its partner Exprivia, will showcase portfolio of solutions to support service providers, enterprises and the public sector in the digital transformation process at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next week.

The topics that will be covered at MWC are Network Transformation, Smart Health, Smart Cities and Smart Energy along with Quality of Experience. Visitors to the booth will be able to virtually experience “life in Space“ with an augmented reality solution, delivered by ACS, an Exprivia Group company.

Italtel also announced it will present virtual Transcoding Unit (vTU) application which brings several functionalities to the edge of networks, improving upload performance, reducing latency and increasing the battery life of connected devices.

vTU runs over any virtualized infrastructure and ARMv8 microservers and leverages mobile edge computing technology to deliver a gigabit ultra-broadband experience. This enables the rapid upload of large files, such as HD video, and enhances Quality of Experience.

vTU takes into account user profile subscriptions and manages the caching of contents by monitoring thetraffic conditions at the core of the network, enabling optimum upload speeds. The application is part of the architecture developed in the “Small-cell Coordination for Multi-tenancy and Edge services“ (SESAME) EU funded research project in which Italtel and Virtual Open Systems are actively participating.
