The outcome of the trial will provide more information to other GSMA working groups to their further study of VoLTE Roaming models. Phase 1 of the trial aims to be completed by MWC2015 and the test report will be shared with GSMA Members. The scope of Phase 2 will be defined after MWC 2015. More test cases and roaming scenarios will be considered.
