Swisscom selects TEOCO for 5G network planning

Switzerland’s biggest operator has chosen TEOCO’s ASSET 5G suite for its radio network planning.

Swisscom and TEOCO said that the ASSET Radio 5G software has been deployed and integrated into the day-to-day processes at Swisscom.
 
Prior to deployment, Swisscom and TEOCO worked closely with the operator’s network equipment vendor, Ericsson, to ensure accurate implementation of the dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) feature in ASSET.

This collaboration ensured the DSS functionality was field tested and delivered all the capabilities expected by network design engineers.

Modelling DSS

Modelling DSS within a planning tool was a key requirement for Swisscom, enabling it to test a range of network scenarios as it looked to build out 5G coverage and capacity rapidly and in the most cost-efficient way.
 
 “We always strive to push the boundaries and leverage technology innovation to create value for our subscribers. In April 2019, we were the first provider in Europe to activate 5G.” said Stefano Ricca, Head of Radio Network Design at Swisscom. “ASSET 5G from TEOCO, enables us to combine network resources to effectively plan and design our network to deliver an excellent 5G user experience.”
 
“We’re delighted to further extend our working relationship with Swisscom to provide them with 5G and DSS modeling capabilities,” said Atul Jain, Founder & CEO, TEOCO. “Swisscom has a global reputation for being an early adopter of innovative technology and we’re confident that our ASSET 5G suite will ensure it continues to be rewarded for its foresight.”
