Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson, Fujitsu, NEC, Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) and NTT Docomo have announced the joint development and successful testing of common technical specifications for value-added IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network services.

The technical specifications recently demonstrated by the six companies support deployment of data processing functions, such as image conversion, on the IMS network.

The processing functions will also allow companies to develop a variety of application services.

The companies believe the new specifications will make it easier for telecommunication operators and vendors to develop value-added network functions.

Operators that have adopted IMS can add these functions to their existing network and realise new services where, for example, a user edits a picture on the network and shares it, or converts a Japanese text message to English on the network before delivering it to the receiver.

The six companies have also collaborated to set up a network system based on the new specifications and then successfully completed a demonstration test in August.
