During such a journey, the mobile network coverage changes many times, and you and your smartphone use the signal emitted by subsequent transmitters. Without proper communication between transmitters scattered around the world, phone calls or data streaming during your travels would not be possible. Here is where Ericsson and our engineer's creativity steps in!

The solutions and projects developed in our department allow for communication between transmitters, enabling the use of telecommunications services when moving over long distances, ensuring a sufficiently high data transfer, and handling multiple connections, depending on the users’ needs.

We are currently working on developing something called Inter-RAT Handover using the 5G network. Another peculiar term straight from Telco? It's true, we have a lot of them, but the devil is not as scary as they paint him. Moving on to the specifics - Inter-RAT handover is a functionality that allows you to transfer users between transmitters based on the information exchanged between them, depending on the user's needs and network capabilities.

If the transmitters could talk, we could eavesdrop on a conversation like this:

• I have a problem, a lot of people are watching ski jumping and I'm running out of resources to make voice calls. How is your situation, can you help?
• It seems that I still have some capacity, let's transfer them to me!

If you would like to learn the "language of transmitters" and develop it together with us – you are most welcome!

In our daily work, we create our own virtual world in which we simulate various scenarios, break through today's telecommunications limitations, and turn them into tomorrow's norms and everyday practices. The simulators we build test how the network and phone connections behave in numerous acute situations. Thanks to the solutions we introduce, we investigate how much we can increase the number of users in a given area, how to maintain the quality of multiple connections, and how to keep high levels of data transfer. Thus, terms such as "capacity," "robustness," and "resiliency" are our bread and butter!

Hence, if you find yourself in crowded places and observe incoming users using their phones, you can be sure we have anticipated this situation in our work: we have examined the network's capacity (capacity), tested how long the network can withstand sudden changes without degrading the signal and connection (robustness), and how quickly it can return to a state of high performance in case unexpected factors interrupt its operation (resiliency).

With the skyrocketing popularity of mobile devices, the amount of data transmitted through the access network is rapidly increasing. This growth is further challenged by the complex geopolitical situation worldwide. As a result, the requirements for transmission devices are evolving. In short- it needs to be faster and more secure!

An example of a protocol ensuring secure data transmission is the IPSec protocol. In our department we work on its integration and development, same as we do for various other functionalities. The operation of IPSec protocol relies on transmitting encrypted data over the so-called 'untrusted network.' Despite the common association of mobile devices primarily with wireless transmission between telecom towers, in practice, a significant portion of the standard data path between end devices goes through shared and leased network segments, including the ubiquitous Internet. It is precisely this 'shared' route that often represents the 'untrusted network'.

The software we continuously improve enhances, among others, devices that serve as IPSec encryption machines. Positioned at the edges of the 'untrusted network,' before securely transmitting data, they again, in an especially secure manner- exchange information about encryption algorithms - and verify each other’s identities.

If you could 'eavesdrop' on the operation of our software, you might hear something like this:

Hi, Zbyszek, this is Kasia speaking. Here's my encryption key and certificate. I support the following encryption algorithms...

Hi, Kasia! I'm sending the same set of information from my side. Let's choose the safest algorithm known to both of us!

The current market needs of operators indicate the necessity to develop Ericsson Smart Connected Site solutions, in order to save energy and have the ability to use different power sources. In response to these needs alternative power sources such as solar and wind energy or diesel generators are being implemented. There is a growing need for flexible and efficient solutions that are easy to deploy and maintain, which could also significantly reduce costly on-site visits. Furthermore, there is pressure to reduce the Site's footprint while tightening requirements for acquiring locations in an already crowded landscape.

One of our main products, Ericsson Smart Connected Site, developed in Krakow, is a comprehensive solution aimed at intelligently integrating the management of all infrastructure elements in a unified system, allowing to reduce the operational costs of the mobile operator. This way, we make telecommunication products evolve towards balanced energy consumption and reduced space requirements.

Specifically, our software for Controller 6610* allows the operator to remotely, easily and conveniently supervise, preview, and take actions on equipment located in various locations in the field without the need to send technicians. What is more, Controller 6610 enables automated data collection and analysis at the network level, which can be visualized digitally on various devices - on the operator's office computer or on a tablet, smartphone, or laptop in the field. Thanks to this solution, operators use a more intelligent facility management system, providing 24/7 information on network availability, capacity, performance, energy management, and unprecedented control over network stability.
