IMS
Why is it so complicated?
• All encompassing
• Evolved by accretion - may contain defunct / obsolete genes
• Must support basic, as well as advanced telco services
• Legacy preservation and protection
• Complex call scenarios
• Multiple network peering / interop 6
• Emergency calling
• Regulatory compliance
• Local resolution
• Security and Scale
But...
It’s not just IMS that should be simplified

Seamless Experiences
How is this to be achieved?
• Why?
• For complex functionality to be easily replicated
• For choice and flexibility
• To enable a seamless experience
• But achieving standardisation is complicated 12
• Process orientated
• Time consuming
• Must be selective over when & where
standards are used
Standards & Interoperability
Complicated but necessary

Usage Patterns Change
OTT and SMS use
• VoLTE is coming
• HD voice quality and making effective use of data network
• CSFB is fine as an interim step but VoLTE will grow
• Phase 2: SRVCC
20
• Anchors voice session on IMS and enables voice services to be
delivered across LTE and legacy networks
• Most expect VoLTE to drive IMS adoption in mobile operators

• What’s to fear?
• RCS etc won’t change anything
• But it (or something like it) is essential
• Legacy mindset must change - App download

• Must embrace change and offer:
• A better experience
• Something different
