The solution includes Ericsson Charging System 16, Ericsson Multi Mediation, and all systems integration services and consultant services.

The solution is part of Ericsson’s Digital Support Systems (DSS) portfolio and supports VIVA’s 4G 4X4 MIMO network modernization. LTE 4×4 MIMO enables enhanced mobile internet user experience and increases operator spectral efficiency by delivering up to twice the downlink data rate without the need for additional spectrum.

Elie Hanna, President Ericsson Mexico, Central America and Caribbean, says: “Our pre-integrated solution will help Viva Dominicana expand its data offerings, quickly respond to consumer demands for service bundles by decreasing time to market.”

Ericsson Charging System enables real-time convergent charging, policy control and faster service creation. It lets the operator control credit while letting users control their costs through flexible packaging, bonuses and discounts. Ericsson is a leader in real-time charging, with more than 200 implementations managing more than 1.6 billion end users worldwide.
