Oct. 19, 2010 Day One

Real World Experience of a 4G (8:00)

  • Sponsored by Alvarion
  • Alvarion will set core as SDR (Software Define Radio) which apply on WiMAX and LTE. LTE will be a main stream.

AT&T Key (9:10)

  • David Haight (EVP)講師が変更となる
    • iPhone change wireless world => Innovation
    • 1996 CDPD come… but after 10 years, data service is not take off.
    • AT&T network = wireless + BB + Wi-Fi + International
    • Smart phone is center point of Digital Life.
    • Most attractive M2M devices are… Pet truck, connect car etc.

The Future IP Network for Mobile communication: Engine for profitability

  • Ashraf M. Dahod, SVP and GM, Mobile Internet Technology Group, Cisco
    • Cell phone CPU nowadays power is 10 times more than Desktop of 1995.
    • Trends; Operator compete not only career. OTT co-operate. Multimedia service become revenue source. 3G to 4G/ Wi-Fi/ Femuto. Those come to B2B2C
  • Pricing; Tiered pricing is not fit everything. ; Premium service/ price like mobile video should be.; also consider Freemium (Ad supported services)

Sneak preview: The futre of BB

  • Bruce Brda, SVP, GM, Networks, Motorola
  • 従来の考え方:ディバイス(ex携帯)がウェブやメッセージ、音声などのサービスに対応する。 これからの考え方:Net(コンテンツ)が音声ディバイス(携帯・PC・ほか)やビデオ・ディバイス(TV・PC・Tablet・ほか)など多様なディバイスに対応する。
  • Now, 80% of traffic are come from fixed network, but will be change. Mobile network traffic will be surplus than fixed network.; TDD-LTE will be more appropriate for data application than FDD-LTE.; Carrier's role are customize, personalize signal. This is creating revenue. ; B2B2C mobile commerce also new revenue.

Sprint Femuto cell.

  • 2010 3GPP2 support, IMS core, SIP
  • What kind device and apps will support by Femuto
  • choice; devices is very. though, Easy to use
  • Security; Femuto to core is encrypted
  • Support; all support by remote
  • Trends
    • Mobile Data traffic
    • In-building ; By 2016, over 80% of gloval wireless data traffic will be gererated indoors. Analysis Mason
    • Smartphones Femutozone application / Home-zone application ; kids back home, alarm come to parents by cell.

6)Alcatel-Lucent; Enterprise…complex very channel. 4)Qualcomm; Femuto provide a voice service main. From now, data volume become large. Operators concern cost of Femuto and QoS, Regulation. Another charance is co-channel (optimization/interference) with Macro and micro cell 7)Cisco; Femuto start north America, go to Asia countries. Carrier know merit of Femuto. Market guy sell Femuto, support and optimized by technology staff…Confrict. 5)Cavium;

  • What purpose to use Femuto by customer?
    • cisco; Not only coverage, throughput is very important. Busy hour, we watch video…more heavy. This is help Femuto and QoS.
    • Al-Lu; Femuto will provide premium services like HD voice.
    • Sprint; Aliment is very charging; change user behavior for sprint.
    • Qualcomm; You cannot decide or analyses consumer behavior. Everyone has deference.
  • Femutocell is not final solution? Some difficulty like party line.
    • Al-Lu; Femutocell has some deferent setting. Now all closed mode. But there are open mode which has 7 types. You cannot decide yet.
    • Qualcomm; Consumer abuse Femuto, enterprise has some deference.

Clearwire (9:15)

  • Mike Sievert, Chief Commercial Officer (instead of CEO Bill Morrow)
  • User; 7Gbyte/month/user, total more than 2M, 56market and 66MPOP
  • Phoenix Arizona LTE trial; 3rooftop antenna; Why we start LTE trial, because future mobile broadband will be a 100Mbps era…we have to prepare. We have a lots of bandwidth (120MHz).

THE EXCITING FUTURE OF MOBILE BROADBAND - HOW NEXT GENERATION DEVICES, APPLICATIONS AND NETWORKS ARE UNLOCKING THE VALUE OF 4G.

  • Bob Azzi, SVP, Sprint
  • 2010, we finally have a dual mode devices (CDMA & WiMAX)
  • 55 market, 63MPOP (Clearwireの話より古い)
  • Last 2 years, Sprint is most improved company in customer services. ; Healthcare will be growing quickly. Nov. 1, 2010, We sprint start WiMAX services in NYC.

4G OPERATOR DEPLOYMENT CONSIDERATIONS FOR BRAODBAND SERVICES

  • Eran Gorev, CEO, Alvaron

Explornet


GOING 4G OUR OWN WAY: METROPCS' UNIQUE PATH TO DELIVER NO CONTRACT MOBILE BROADBAND

  • Roger Linguist, CEO, MetroPCS
  • We start LTE commercial service in Las Vegas, Dallas and Chicago.; data speed 10 times higher than (1X RTT).

UNLEASHING NEW SPECTRUM FOR WIRELESS BROADBAND (13:15)

  • 1) Phoebe Yang, Senior Advisor to the Chairman on Broadband, FCC / 2) Julius Knapp, Chief, Office of Engineering and Technology, FCC
  • 1) NBP 4G is very important. Overview of NBP; It's not only rule making, government request not only spectrum but healthcare Grid … Big.; FCC build up a special work group which consist of very people from many government offices.; NBP team aim Innovation and Investment. ; 1930 rule has completed in Electric industry.;
  • 1) Key driver are Higer useage; higher penetration; diversify application liken M2M.; we found 50MHz at 2007 are available for mobile broadband. Spectrum crunch. Backhoul is big problem, especially micro waive (PtP) backhoul. ; 500MHz provide next 10 years.; NTIA & FCC should provide spectrum by June 2010 president memorandum. ; April FCC release 66 action plan on NBP.;
  • 2) Spectrum crunch; focus finding more efficient use and new spectrum for NBP. How we getting new spectrum?; Not easy, can be acomplish. ; We already taken stap, AWS for MBB(mobile broadband).; Sattelite ; In July FCC take mobile satellite spectrum (90MHz) => terrestrial MBB,; TV broadcaster auction which volantally, this is great opportunity…this new approach supported by Gov. and Captal hill. Those are better usage.;
  • 2) Wireless backhaul is very important. Below 30GHz, FCC will permit Point to Point use with new antenna configuration.;
  • 2) Super Wi-Fi will help MBB…FCC and NTIA seeking and evaluate current spectrum usage… measurement again again…
  • 2) Tomorrow, Spectrum Summit will hold in Washington. Some of you come and Join.
  • 2) Q&A;
    • Mobile Satellite will focus.;
    • White space what different Last and now. => No sensing requirement. Others are not big change.
    • TV broadcaster how much they provide? => We focus 160MHz but all are on going… can't say.
    • TV broadcaster CH ID which will virtualize? Is this possible? => From engineering point of view, Service continuity is most important…those carnage are very risky.
