Vivacom has selected Ericsson to make investment in 4G voice service and Wi-Fi calling in Bulgaria.
Ericsson is already supplying Evolved Packet Core network and will be adding virtual IP Multimedia Subsystem (vIMS) to Vivacom.
VoLTE subscriptions are expected to reach 5.4 billion during 2023, according to Ericsson Mobility Report.
Vivacom can generate more revenue as the VoLTE solution from Ericsson opens up further possibilities to enable HD voice+ and music within calls, video communication and IP messaging for its mobile phone customers.
“The Bulgarian market is competitive, so we want to be out front with the best technology and customer experience,” Radoslav Zlatkov, CTO of Vivacom, said.
Monica Zethzon, head of Communication Services at Ericsson, said the deployment of Fast VoLTE Launch solution assisted Vivacom to substantially reduce the time for deploying communication services.
