South Korea’s KT is deploying Tekelec’s Policy Server (PCRF) for its LTE and 3G networks.

The carrier said Tekelec’s Policy Server will support daily and monthly quota tracking for a variety of services, including voice, Internet usage, file transfer, instant messaging, and video telephony.

The deal expands Tekelec’s policy footprint to a new country in the Asia-Pacific region. The company has additional customers in India, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore.

US-based M2M platform provider Jasper Wireless is meanwhile deploying the PCRF for its M2M services. Industry analyst and consulting firm Analysys Mason estimated that there were 100.4 million connected devices at the end of 2011, with the number rising to 2.1 billion by 2021.

Tekelec’s PCRF sets rules governing when devices transmit information to maximize capacity over 3G and LTE networks. It can apply different qualities of service to different machines and implement flexible service plans based on transactions, connections, time of day, location, applications, or data usage.
