Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi)

Hands touching screen of smartphone to set up WiFi

The course provides a solid technical understanding of the Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) technologies and architectures endorsed by 3GPP, and the LTE industry. More specifically, the course covers in depth the procedures call flows as well as the necessary network optimizations required to deliver high performance  experience of voice service. The course contents goes beyond VoWiFi covering in depth WiFi calling, call flows, handovers, and performance optimizations for a holistic and uniform packet based Voice service.

The course describes in depth the technological solutions and standards that will enable the migration  of telephony services over WiFi networks. After successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Describe the network design and infrastructure for WiFi
  • Describe the VoWiFi architecture 
  • Understand and describe the WiFi calling 
  • Understand the trusted and untrusted non-3GPP access  
  • Describe the packet core infrastructure needed for VoWiFi 
  • Describe how IMS is working and is related to delivering Voice 
  • Describe E2E signalling of SIP 
  • Describe the security related call-flow of a call
  • Understand mobility scenarios (WiFi – EUTRAN, ANDSF, MAPCON, IFOM, NSWO)
  • Understand how to engineer WiFi for best possible VoWiFi Quality of Experience

At the end of the course, participants will be proficient in designing, planning and optimizing a best of class VoWiFi service that satisfies current and future market requirements.
