UMA vs VCC


Evaluation: UMA vs VCC

What is VCC?• Voice Call Continuity• Soon to be complete

3GPP specification

What does VCC do?• Designed to bridge a

SIP/VoIP infrastructure to a traditional circuit network

VCC target customer?• Ideal for fixed

operators

UMA VCC

Standard Complete?

Handsets Available?

Major Operators Deploying?

Simple Network Integration?

Compelling User Experience?

Support for IMS Evolution?

Evaluation Criteria


Standard Complete

• UMA/GAN Release 6– Technical Spec. 43.318– Ratified April 2005 (2 years ago)

• VCC– Stage 2 approved for Release 7– Stage 3 complete Q4 07 (est.)


Handsets Available

UMA-enabled Dual-Mode Handsets

Pre-standard VCC Dual-Mode Handsets

Simple Network Integration3GPP I-WLAN + IMS Voice Core + VCC

• Introduces “Split-brained” Core Model

– Separate core voice network serves handset when on Wi-Fi

• Deployment Cost and Complexity

– Requires installation and integration of:

1. IMS voice core network and associated operational systems

2. I-WLAN

3. VCC

Simple Network Integration3GPP UMA Technology

• Follows traditional 3GPP RAN model

– Maintains logical separation of access and core networks

– Allows core and access networks to evolve independently while preserving feature transparency across networks

• Deployment Cost and Complexity

– Effectively, integration of a new BSS / RNS into the network

– Interfaces into existing core using proven, defined interfaces

– Enables rapid, low-cost, low-impact network introductionUMTSUMTSGSMGSM

Compelling User Experience3GPP I-WLAN + IMS Voice Core + VCC

• VCC provides “voice call” continuity, mobility for other services must be handled separately

• When on SIP/Wi-Fi, how do you access mobile services like SMS, MMS?

• Several standard Supplementary Services not supported by VCC

Compelling User Experience3GPP UMA Technology

• Follows traditional 3GPP RAN model– Full support for all circuit,

packet and future IMS services

– Seamless mobility for all applications between networks

– Services introduced in mobile core immediately available to Wi-Fi/UMA

Support for IMS EvolutionComparison to the UMA-based Solution

•VCC supports legacy voice services in an IMS environment only– No extra functionality is

available

•UMA provides mobility for all voice, data and IMS services

•Mobility is handled in the access network– Existing GSM network

Conclusion

• UMA: The Standard for Universal Access– Helping mobile operators win the “battle for the

building”• UMA and IMS: Complementary

Technologies– UMA is a RAN/access technology– IMS is completely agnostic to the RAN

• UMA vs VCC– UMA delivers the best user experience, simplest

network integration, that fits with the IMS evolution
