Russian Towers provided with telecom infrastructure the Yekaterinburg — the Expo Congress center

2019: Creation of Indoor-infrastructure

On August 1, 2019 the Russian Towers company announced creation of INDOOR infrastructure for implementation of a seamless covering mobile communication of the constructed Congress center of the international exhibition center "Yekaterinburg EXPO".

For August, 2019 the area of the Congress center was 41,600 sq.m., 4 elevated and 1 basement store, 15 conference rooms, 26 negotiation and restaurant. To provide guests of the center with modern standards of communication, was the DAS system (Distributed Antenna System) which allows a signal of cellular communication to pass through a set of steel structures and at the same time to remain high-speed is designed and constructed.

The feature of the solution is that antenna infrastructure was constructed for five operators – VimpelCom, Megafon, MTS, Tele2 and Motive which equipment and, respectively, requirements to infrastructure, are different. Antennas were issued under the general stylistics of premises of the Congress center without communication quality degradation that also demanded the non-standard solution.

In spite of the fact that creation of telecom infrastructure was performed in a short time in parallel with finishing of premises of the Congress center, all works were performed in time. All five operators got access to infrastructure of DAS and carried out necessary works on testing and setup of a system. It allowed to provide the Congress center with multiband network in standards 2G, 3G and 4G of generations, providing guests of a forum with high rates on the speed of the Internet and quality of a mobile voice. Thanks to the DAS system constructed by Russian Towers company, average speed on one subscriber at simultaneous access to the network of 100 people was 100 Mbps, the maximum measured – 170 Mbps. The high level of a covering of network for 95% of the area of the Congress center is reached.

Telecom infrastructure of Russian Towers at the minimum upgrade is ready to creation of a communication network of a 5G, is completely integrated with the systems of positioning in the building and provides a full range of opportunities of mobile access to services and services.

"Digitalization covers all spheres of society and business. No event can be provided without modern technologies of communication. Russian Towers created telecom infrastructure thanks to which guests of the Congress center had ample opportunities of use of LTE of communication, and in the future and a 5G", 'Alexander Chub, the President of Russian Towers Group noted'

"PJSC VimpelCom highly appreciates quality and speed with which the Russian Towers company implemented the project of construction of the DAS system in Congress center "Yekaterinburg EXPO". Thanks to it we managed to unroll quickly networks 2G, 3G and 4G in an important city object. Also in "Yekaterinburg EXPO" we applied the high-tech solution of MIMO which allows to double data transfer rate and to bring quality of communication of subscribers to higher level. Clients Beeline can load and watch online movies in the HD format, communicate in network, receive and send considerable information volumes", 'Igor Saykin, the senior manager on technical business interaction, PJSC VimpelCom noted'

"The congress center will become the platform of holding world events, the place of an attraction of millions of people, and our task to provide for them the high level of services in the territory of a complex. For this purpose we installed the modern telecom equipment with support of LTE Advanced technology which can disperse the mobile Internet indoors to record values – 375 Mbps. An object is also capable to cope with repeated increase in loading and to save high data transfer rate even if several thousands of guests of the Congress center will begin to connect at the same time to the web and to conduct the airs", 'Anton Scherbakov, the director of infrastructure of Megafon in the Urals noted'

Russian Towers had to invent antenna-feeder network of original range literally. The created infrastructure at the minimum upgrade is capable to work also in the perspective standard of communication of a 5G" 'Marat Karymov, the technical director of the branch of MTS in Sverdlovsk region noted'
