Network Equipment Vendors and Smart wireless operators now entrust the building of wireless telecommunication sites to a specialist company, allowing them to get on with what they do best.
The management of the roll out of wireless telecommunication sites is considered a key specialized profession in the wireless telecommunication industry. It is not only important to get a certain volume of sites built and on air, it is also vital to find optimal site locations, maneuver smoothly within local and national governments, organize a fast and efficient roll out, find cost-efficient solutions and maintain a distinct focus on designs and solutions requiring a low level of maintenance. A specialist is well placed to do this.
Trillion has trained and experienced field technical and engineering capabilities and the management competence to drive complex network rollouts. We enable Network Equipment Manufacturers and Service Providers to execute the complete suite of deployment activities – Installation & Commissioning, Integration, Redeployment and In-building solutions on an end-to-end turnkey model.
Installation & Commissioning
For any wireless network to perform efficiently, in addition to good planning, it is important to have high quality deployment of the various network elements and subsystems. This is an important factor in deciding the reliability and performance of the network, and therefore the experience of the subscribers at large.
Trillion’s expertise lies in installation & commissioning (I&C) of both core and radio access network elements like MSC’s, BSCs and BTSs.
Network Integration
Almost all networks comprise of multi vendor hardware and network management systems, using multiple technologies that make the task of integrating these elements even more complex and critical.
Trillion’s multi vendor experience provide a one-stop shop to integrate complex networks and make them truly functional. Trillion provides integration of active OEMs (IN, SMSC, MMSC, WAP, Pre paid, and Roaming).
Trillion’s expertise in integrating networks includes:
Core Network Integration
Packet Network Integration
Integration of BSS elements
Integration of the VAS elements
Re-Deployment
In a highly dynamic telecom environment and fiercely competitive scenario, service providers are required to continuously upgrade their networks to deliver a host of application and value added services to the customers. This drives service providers to constantly introduce latest technology equipments into their network. While doing this it is essential for service providers to minimize their Capex by effectively utilizing and redeploying legacy equipment already existing in their networks.
Upgradation / expansion of existing networks by introducing new equipment from alternate vendors entails critical re dimensioning of the network and reconfiguration of the network elements.
This task becomes even more critical when redeployment of existing equipments is done on a live network without interrupting on going traffic. A high precision coordination is required between the RF Engineering, Network dimensioning, OMCR & I&C teams since the time window available for outage is barely a few hours and generally during night time. Few critical parameters that need to be maintained to ensure consistent delivery to customers during the redeployment activity are:
Consistency in pre and post swap RF parameters
No change in the traffic carrying capacity of the redeployed network
No impact on value add services being subscribed to by the customer
Consistency in the coverage
Trillion’s ability to take complete ownership of this activity stems from its multi vendor expertise, well defined processes for efficient trouble shooting and a highly skilled team of engineers. Trillion has successfully demonstrated its capability on redeployment of various networks.
In Building Solutions
In any cellular network the greatest challenge for the service provider is to deliver a consistent coverage and voice quality to the subscriber. A large percentage of calls originate and terminate when the subscriber is indoors. Natural interferences and obstructions within buildings such as concrete walls, partitions inside office and dense urban layout reduce the signal strength drastically resulting in poor coverage and loss of revenue to the service provider.
Trillion’s In Building Solutions aim to improve coverage and signal strengths inside buildings using repeaters or Micro BTSs. Trillion’s capability to design complex in building solutions result in effective traffic management for the customer.
Trillion’s engineers conduct detailed walk through tests within the building before proposing a solution. Recommendations are then made in the form of a survey report, which is prepared in consultation with the customer taking into account the proposed sector allocations.
Activities which Trillion undertakes while proposing In Building Solutions include:
Walk though test and cable route survey
Link budget planning & assured signal level calculations
Planning for the BOQ
Installation & Commissioning of Repeaters, Micro BTS, Antenna & Cable Systems
Post installation walk test
