HELSINKI, Finland-Nokia Corp. said it has collaborated with NEC Corp. to complete what it describes as both companies’ first phase of interoperability testing for Internet Protocol multimedia subsystems.
Both vendors said the tests established sessions for Voice over IP as well as transferred instant messages between test terminals.
“These connections form the basis for a wide range of multimedia communication services, such as sharing presence information, interactive applications, sharing content and sharing real-time video,” said Nokia.
Push-to-talk over cellular will also work with IMS. Nokia said the tests attest to the fact that IMS standardization efforts are beginning to bear fruit.
