NTT DOCOMO selects NEC for Operations Support Systems
www.WirelessFederation.com/news: NEC Corporation (NEC) has been selected by NTT DOCOMO to provide Operations Support Systems (OSS) to the company. The system will be deployed by one of NEC’s United States-based subsidiaries, NetCracker Technology Corp.
DOCOMO is constructing IP networks to launch its commercial Long Term Evolution (LTE) services in 2010. Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (WDM) network that links core networks and base stations will be managed by OSS. WDM also controls communication equipment, including L2 switches in LTE networks.
Even the multi-vendor networks can benefit from WDM network path design capabilities as the system improves the quality and efficiency of network design, leading to the reduction of CAPEX and construction of optimized networks for LTE.
DOCOMO’s high evaluation of NetCracker’s OSS product portfolio resulted in NEC’s selection as a part of the project. Besides, NEC’s extensive know-how and delivery record for DOCOMO also encouraged the decision.
TTI Telecom Introduces New Version of TrafficGuard
TTI Team Telecom International Ltd. (NASDAQ: TTIL) (TTI Telecom???), a global supplier of Operations Support Systems (OSS) to communications service providers, has introduced a new module to its TrafficGuard system.

The newer module retains TrafficGuard’s intuitive user interface and smart thresholds capabilities.
TTI Telecom is always looking for new ways to improve its NGOSS Netrac platform and meet operators’ requirements for proactive, customer-centric and business-driven service management solutions,??? commented Shachar Ebel , CTO of TTI Telecom. Particularly in Next Generation IP-based networks where performance degradations account for an increasing portion of overall network and service deterioration, the new TrafficGuard module allows our customers to better ensure premium quality for their customers.???
TrafficGuard, launched as an add-on to Netrac PMM in 2006, analyzes performance data in correlation with historical data on traffic trends to anticipate traffic-related faults through correlation between near-real time measurements and historical data. Netrac provides a unified network view integrating fault, performance and service management for a holistic view of service assurance based on all available information sources, including those provided by network resources, application servers, and active monitoring probes. The integration of Netrac FaM and PMM product lines enable service providers to detect and fix problems minimizing adverse impacts on customer service.
