With mobile data traffic expected to rise 40-fold over the next five years (Source: Coda Research Consultancy) ( http://www.codaresearch.co.uk/reports.htm) Mobile Network Optimisation will bring together leading experts from mobile operators to determine how to optimise network capacity and performance to manage this increase in data traffic.

The conference will be an opportunity to "exchange ideas around new strategies to optimise your network, that will ensure sustainability for the future," says Matthias Sauder, Head of Access Engineering, Design & Optimisation, Vodafone Germany. Matthias will be leading a session on Conference Day One to share his insight into the challenges faced in optimising Europe's first 800 MHz LTE network at Vodafone Germany and, in particular, how they have migrated to a single RAN network.

Elsewhere, operators are rightly concerned with how increased traffic is going to impact the user experience, as reported by Telecoms.com. (http://www.telecoms.com/16718/increasing-mobile-network-capacity-without-the-technology-upgrade/) To address this, Dr. Vasiliy Pantov, Head of Services and Network Performance Management will present Kyivstar's perspective on establishing a balance between supporting the demand in data traffic, providing the required QoS, and minimising costs. He will also analyse the performance requirements of different devices, as well as how to manage their demand on network capacity.

Matthias and Vasiliy are two key speakers who will be presenting at this event in June. Further industry experts who will share their experiences include:

- Uwe Löwenstein, Spectrum Technology Manager, Telefónica O2 Germany

- Robert Dimitrovski, Project Manager, T-Mobile Croatia

- Terje Engebretsen, Radio Planner, GSM & WCDMA/UMTS Network, Telenor Norway
