On the move providing connectivity.
The MDG can be used in various scenarios from a stationary place to any kind of vehicle in movement.
For example, one type of scenario makes use of Wi-Fi and LTE technologies where an MDG is used on-vehicle plus one agent, Mobile Operations Agent (MOA) , which are seamlessly connected on-land to the MOS. The MOS also provides detailed reports of the connectivity through a specialised reporting server (MRS).
What can be achieved with this architecture?
The Mobile Data Gateway (MDG) distributes load across several different backhauls (LTE, 3G, Wi-Fi,... ).
Link availability is monitored using different protocols and metrics like Ping and DNS. When a link failure is detected, the MDG automatically updates the traffic routes.
To improve the user experience, the MDG uses the caching mechanism to speed up user requests.
MDG can be plugged into any existing network without requiring any changes on the network.
MDG allows aggregation of multiple backhauls into a single virtual link, thus getting higher data rates and failover functionality.
MDG is taking security seriously, with that in mind all the communications of the gateway are controlled by a built in firewall.
The MDG supports creation of policies that allows traffic prioritisation. For example guarantee more bandwidth to the e-mail while peer-to-peer applications will have lower priority.
MDG comes with a built in DHCP server to assign IP address to Lan clients and a DNS server which can provide a DNS cacher.
RbR provides the ability to choose the used backhaul depending on specific conditions. These conditions can vary from geographical location, to data usage or to a specific date. With these rules the solution operator is able to optimize costs and performance. For example, a specific operator can be used in an area and a different one in another area, providing the best possible coverage for each backhaul. Or if a SIM has a data cap limit, when this limit is reached the system can be configured to used another SIM present.
Ability to deploy low cost solution, which enables MNO to provide WiFi access to a large number of users. Our solution can be used not only to provide data connectivity, but also off loading of voice connecting, with the upcoming mass deployment of Voice over WiFi.
Not only can offer WiFi connectivity to passenger, but can be used to transmit business important information from vehicle to land side, like GPS position, status of main components, live video stream (for security)…
When there is a need to stream live events from any location, or transmit large amounts of data from any location.
Where ever it’s needed to give users WiFi coverage, being a sport arena, a concert arena, a shopping mall or any other location, our solution is a simple and effective way to achieve this goal.
