Mobile Telesystems (MTS), the largest mobile operator in Russia and CIS, has awarded an equipment upgrade and services contract to Motorola to improve the quality, capacity and performance of its Moscow region network.


The project includes base station upgrades in the Moscow region and the deployment of EDGE on all segments of the region’s network, which will allow MTS to double the number of potential data service subscribers and increase the speed of data transfer.

Voice and data quality on the MTS network is expected to be improved by optimizing performance, capacity, and deploying new hardware and software functionality, such as AMR voice codec which is designed to improve voice quality while using the same amount of network resources.

Comprehensive network optimization, performed using Motorola’s Intelligent Design and Growth Planning service, will allow MTS to deliver increased quality of service and soon offer its subscribers new services and applications while expanding the coverage of its existing services.
