Expanding GMLC capabilities in the 5G era As mobile networks evolve, location services continue to play a key role—not only for emergency calls and regulatory compliance, but also for enabling new service experiences. With the network upgrades to 5G, the expectations for location services are of increased precision and reduced latency. The Gateway Mobile Location […]

Open Source in Telecom: A Smarter Way to Innovate and Save Telecom networks run on well-established standards. Core functions, messaging systems, and service platforms all follow clear specifications defined over years of industry collaboration. Still, many MNOs and MVNOs continue to rely on vendor solutions that implement these same standards, often at a high recurring

Emergency Location – PAiC BD In mission-critical scenarios, rapid and accurate determination of a User Equipment’s (UE) geographic location is paramount. Network-based geolocation methodologies provide a robust solution, thereby establishing its reliability for emergency response. Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) possess the fundamental network elements to facilitate this capability: The Enhanced Serving Mobile Location Center (E-SMLC)

How Telecoms Can Offer Geolocation Services Telecom operators are uniquely positioned to offer geolocation services, thanks to their direct access to core network infrastructure. Elements like the Gateway Mobile Location Centre (GMLC) and Enhanced Serving Mobile Location Centre (E-SMLC) already enable accurate location retrieval without relying on user-side technologies like GPS. These existing capabilities can

DRA version 2.1.0-74 Release Notes Constant innovation is a core value of PAiC BD and the new release of our DRA, version 2.1.0-74, is the latest proof of this continuous improvement drive. This update includes enhancements to our Diameter Routing Agent, that have improved peers management, performance and DNS queries optimization. #DRA #ReleaseNotes #PAiCBD Release

Geolocation in telecom is underutilized One of our key takeaways from MWC is that telecom geolocation continues to be a missed opportunity. Telecom companies have direct access to vast geolocation data, not because they want to mine consumers data, but because they efficiently need to obtain it to provide quality voice and internet connections. Despite

There’s nothing intelligent about being artificial In today’s market, many start-ups and established companies emphasize being “powered by A.I.” sometimes making it their core identity. But when the tool becomes the focus and even the purpose, we risk losing sight of what truly matters. The key question isn’t whether a business uses A.I. or not,

USSD: Potential for Essential Services Attending MWC 2025 provided an opportunity to reflect on how the telecom industry continues to push for innovation—yet, in doing so, sometimes overlooks the potential of well-established technologies. One important realization was how USSD, a decades-old yet highly reliable communication protocol, remains underutilized in areas where it could have a

How Our SIP-Enabled USSD Gateway Prepares the Way for USSI Having a USSD Gateway (USSD Gw) with SIP capabilities is a crucial step in preparing for USSI (USSD over IMS) as outlined in 3GPP TS 23.490. This integration ensures interoperability between legacy USSD services—traditionally reliant on SS7/MAP—and IMS-based networks where SIP is the primary signaling

Meet with PAiC BD at MWC25 Meet with PAiC BD at MWC25 PAiC BD is looking forward to attending it’s 8th MWC event in its 10 year trajectory. We look forward to the many good meetings already planned and the numerous chance encounters typical of MWC. We are helping drive open source in the telecom
