MILPITAS, CA — (Marketwired) — 03/16/15 — JDSU (NASDAQ: JDSU) today announced that SoftBank Mobile (SBM), a leading mobile communications service provider in Japan, has chosen to implement JDSU–s ariesoGEO platform and GEOperformance application across its 3G and LTE networks in downtown Tokyo. SoftBank will use ariesoGEO to help improve customer satisfaction by using location intelligence data from its network.
ariesoGEO is a geolocation solution designed for customer-centric radio access network planning, optimization and troubleshooting. It enables a mobile network operator to perform traffic analysis, site design, RAN optimization, new service and network planning, and customer troubleshooting.

JDSU–s ariesoGEO platform was selected after a competitive trial due to the scalability and maturity of the solution, and its ability to support multiple vendors and technologies.
“We are delighted that SoftBank Mobile has selected the ariesoGEO platform,” said Sue Spradley, senior vice president and general manager of JDSU–s Network and Service Enablement business segment. “We pride ourselves on being a partner, not just a supplier.
