To add, yes, its highly likely that upon some major upgrade, IMS will fully ride on existing 2G/3G networks.Also, using some gateways, traditional VoIP and WiMAX will be supported.The only driving factor to consider are the Applications that can be delivered with such a huge investment. ./bernard On Sat, Oct 17, 2009 at 8:58 PM, Bernard Mwagiru <bmwagiru@gmail.com> wrote:
Kennedy, No full fledged IMS deployments have been made here. However, there are bits and pieces of IMS that are coming up and are currently on trial by local operators.The fact that you haven't received replies to this could be due to company confidentiality and none disclosure agreements in place. A full IMS platform runs in 100s of million of euros.Hence, operators have chosen to adopt some function of IMS that make economic sense;function here doesn't necessarily mean a node/hardware. Several functions can run on the same box.This box could be an upgraded legacy/classic node, to fit into a 3GPP IMS architecture implementation.One thing is for sure, SIP will be a dominant protocol for mobile operators in the not so distant future.

Hi good people,
i need to know if any IMS [pinging Ericsson/ NSN peeps] networks have been deployed in kenya, and if so how independent are they from the existing GSM/GPRS -are they piggy-backing on these networks? And also if anyone has interacted with a SIP deployed IPTV[ zuku peeps ua thoughts needed here] app. what was the streaming quality, type of compression and bandwidth utilization? I'll be more than greatful! Its kind of necessary. Most of you know what this line means ''.....submitted in partial fulfillment for the Award....blah blah'' yes that! God bless y'all!
