AT&T will be implementing HD Voice’s improved voice calling to customers later this year. This feature uses hardware and software components on both the phone and on the network to enhance voice clarity and reduce background noise, devoting more frequency to handle the amount of audio coming in and automatically kicking in when both handsets support it.
Senior VP Kris Rinne said that the carrier’s support for the technology would begin later in 2013 as it begins routing voice calls over its LTE network. “HD Voice is part of our voice over LTE strategy,” she said.
