T-Mobile: wifi calling and Rich Communications
Launching VoLTE is our first step toward a host of
rich communication services and additional
innovations around WiFi calling that we're looking to
deliver to our customers over the coming months"

Conclusions
Diameter signaling is a fundamental part of LTE but also for 3G and IMS
networks
Network usage, signaling, is very different than before
Unpredictable
Users, handsets and applications driven
Diameter Routers are ideal place to add more value and enabling more
business models
Spider in value-add web .... with all the uncertainties.... FLEXIBILITY is key
