Multi-MNO service aggregation in wireless networks
FY 2012-13
Summary
The objective of the proposed project is to investigate innovative methods for supporting integrated data
services through multiple 4G cellular ?service providers, which we refer to as multi-MNO service aggregation.
In this model, users will be able to use the services of multiple service providers simultaneously and
transparently, and MNOs will be able to pool their resources to provide a better service. Considering that
per-capita mobile data-usage is projected to grow exponentially, particularly driven by heavy Smart Phone
markets, the carriers will be forced to adopt new approaches to service deployment and management that would
allow more efficient use of resources, and we believe service aggregation would be a key technology in
achieving this goal.
