5 What about telephony in relagon to LTE? (IMS) IMS : IP MulDmedia Subsystem IMS is an all-ip network for muldmedia services Main driver is Voice over LTE (VoLTE) GSM 3G GSM Circuit switched Core Security Applications Conferencing sharing Collaboration Presence messaging Multimedia telephony IPTV Quality Reach IMS IP Charging Authentication HSPA WCDMA Packet Core DSL WLAN PSTN LTE LTE
