Astellia has signed a global framework agreement with Telefonica Group to deploy its geolocated-based RAN optimization platform. The solution has already been deployed in Spain and will be rolled-out during 2017 in Latin America.

Astellia’s geolocation is used in a variety of applications like troubleshooting and analytics to optimize the network and improve the customer experience. The location intelligence will also feed Telefonica’s big data to fuel a whole range of use cases and data monetization opportunities.

Astellia’s Nova geolocation intelligence is recognized as the most accurate technology on the market. Based on unique algorithms integrating fingerprinting, trilateration and minimization of drive tests (MDT). Nova provides network-wide coverage maps with indoor and outdoor precision and analyzes network behavior to identify hotspots and golden spots for microcell deployment. The virtualized solution can easily be deployed in a flexible manner, reducing OPEX and CAPEX.
