MWC 2015: Facebook and Verizon join forum on LTE Broadcast
By Thomas Campbell March 2nd, 2015
LTE Broadcast has been gaining increasing industry traction of late, and now leading mobile operators, content providers and device vendors are coming together at Mobile World Congress 2015 in Barcelona to share best practices concerning the new technology.
The group will act as a forum for the exchange of experiences regarding LTE Broadcast services. Ericsson, Facebook, the GSA, the GSMA, INDYCAR, Intel, KPN, Qualcomm Technologies, Telstra and Verizon, are among the participating companies, with Ericsson (who is leading the event) set to showcase a number of LTE Broadcast live demos with new use cases and functionalities.
“The principal objective of the User Group is to share the best practices that will spur industry growth and widespread adoption as we enter a new era of personalized media content,” comments Dan Warren, Senior Director of Technology, GSMA. “Users want anytime, anywhere, any device access to their media and entertainment and LTE Broadcast can be a key technology to enable delivery of popular content in an optimal way. It can relieve some of the heavy traffic burden that operators would otherwise have to support.”
The LTE Broadcast User Group meeting is an invitation-only event, taking place at the Ericsson stand (Hall 2) at Mobile World Congress, Fira Gran Via, Barcelona, on Monday, March 2. To find out more about why LTE Broadcast is drawing so much attention and discussion, read this exclusive IP&TV News guest post from Global mobile Suppliers’ Association (GSA) VP of Research Alan Hadden.
Throughout the LTE Broadcast conference track at TV Connect (28 – 30 April 2015 ExCel, London) there will be an examination of the latest trials and best case-uses for the technology – including updates from the likes of BBC, Deutsche Telekom, EE and Telecom Italia.
