Ericsson Leverages OPNET Modeler to Develop MPLS/QoS Mechanisms for 3G Wireless Access Networks

Ericsson is ensuring its leading position in the development of 3G access routers by incorporating OPNET Modeler into their Research process.

Ericsson is using OPNET Modeler to design MPLS capabilities incorporating IntServ/DiffServ mechanisms into their 3G network equipment. Yves Lemieux, the lead engineer on Ericsson's work with OPNET, has been enhancing current DiffServ mechanisms. OPNET software shortens Ericsson's Research process by eliminating mistakes early on, rather than during a hardware prototype phase, reducing the number of design iterations required. OPNET Modeler was also used to design MPLS Fast Reroute mechanisms to ensure QoS under network failure conditions. According to Mr. Lemieux, "At Ericsson Research in Canada, OPNET software is most useful for accelerating our proof-of-concept projects. We regularly reduce time for completing these projects by 30% of what they would take otherwise, and we are also more confident in our results because of the structure OPNET Modeler introduces."

Mr. Lemieux continued, "Most recently OPNET Modeler validated that our product designs implement required QoS mechanisms in the wireless network, to provide differentiated data services... and we believe we can do these projects faster and better than the competition."
