The HSS 3G product suite to be used by ITRI for its 3G
initiatives in Taiwan
New Delhi, India, January 25, 2002
Hughes Software Systems (HSS), specialists in convergent
network software and India's leading communications software
company, announced today that it has been selected by the
Computer & Communications Research Laboratories/Industrial
Technology Research Institute (ITRI/CCL) for supplying Network
Infrastructure Software. ITRI/CCL is a Taiwan based R&D
institution that selects and qualifies communication infrastructure
to be used in the country.
ITRI has selected HSS for supplying protocols and components
for building 3G Network Infrastructure Software.
ITRI verifies and certifies technology as fit for use in
Taiwan, and products undergo a rigorous technical evaluation
before being adopted by ITRI. Commercial organizations in
Taiwan will be willing to follow the ITRI lead in adopting
3G software from HSS to build their commercial network solutions,
as this would reduce their technical evaluation and commercial
bid process significantly.
HSS will be providing ITRI with standards based Node B
protocols like NBAP, and Framing Protocols, RNC Protocols
like RRC, RLC/MAC, SSCF-UNI and NNI, RANAP, Iu-CS UP, and
SGSN Protocols like GTP-U/ C, SIGTRAN etc.
"We were impressed by the technical capability demonstrated
by HSS and preferred it over other leading technology vendors.
This move will help us put Taiwanese companies into a stronger
position for the emerging 3G markets." said Dr.Teddy
Huang, CCL Deputy General Director.
"This is a major landmark for us, and we are very proud
to be associated with an organization like ITRI that spearheads
technology adoption. This association also gives us access
to the rapidly evolving Asia - Pacific communication markets."
said Arun Kumar, President and Managing Director, Hughes Software
Systems. "With our focus on convergence technologies,
and strong delivery capabilities, HSS is poised to further
consolidate its position in the 3G software market with the
OEMs."
