The document discusses broadband trends from 2010 to 2015 and beyond. It notes that broadband data and new subscribers will drive revenue growth for telecom companies, though traffic will grow faster than revenue. The challenges of limited spectrum, growing data demands, and the need for low latency networks are also summarized. The presentation recommends fiber to the curb/building with VDSL2 to meet near-term broadband needs, and discusses emerging technologies like next generation optical access and heterogeneous mobile networks to enable future broadband experiences and applications. Mobile broadband is identified as a key technology for increasing digital inclusion in Brazil.Telocom porter

The document provides an overview of the Indian telecom industry. It notes that as of September 2008 there were 315 million mobile subscribers and 39 million fixed line subscribers in India. It is expected that mobile subscriptions will grow to 496 million by 2010. The top 4 operators, Airtel, Reliance, Vodafone and BSNL, hold 74% of the market share. New entrants face threats including customer switching costs being low and infrastructure setup costs being extremely high. There is also cutthroat price competition and a lack of differentiation among service providers.Leveraging Broadband for Community and Economic Development

It notes that broadband data and new subscribers will drive revenue growth for telecom companies, though traffic will grow faster than revenue. The challenges of limited spectrum, growing data usage, and high-bandwidth applications are also covered. The presentation recommends fiber to the curb/building with VDSL2 to meet near-term bandwidth demands, and next generation optical access as a way to provide up to 1 Gbps symmetrical speeds over longer distances in the future. Mobile broadband evolution including LTE, heterogeneous networks, and all-IP backhaul are presented as ways to enhance the user experience.Microwave towards 2020 presentation

Microwave backhaul plays an important role in providing a good user experience and overall network performance. The backhaul capacity needed per base station differs substantially, depending on target data rates and population density.
Microwave backhaul technology is able to handle 100 percent of all radio access sites’ capacity needs. This is true for today as well as in 2020, when it will evolve to support multi-gigabit capacities in traditional frequency bands and beyond 10 gigabits in the millimeter wave.At Analysys Mason (2008) Next Generation Radio Technologies

4G technologies like LTE and WiMAX aim to improve wireless services by providing better coverage, voice quality, data speeds, and revenue for operators. LTE employs OFDM and MIMO to achieve high spectrum efficiency and handle multipath fading, while WiMAX uses OFDM and is optimized for developing markets with limited wired infrastructure but available spectrum. Both technologies have strengths and weaknesses and may coexist, though LTE has broader device and network support currently from major mobile operators.Thinksmallcell MWC 2016

1. Mobile broadband is becoming a major opportunity for telecommunications companies as mobile data usage and adoption increases rapidly each year, driven by smartphone proliferation, new services, and flat-rate pricing.
2. Networks must fundamentally change to handle growing mobile data demands, including evolving to all-IP flat networks with small cell layers to boost capacity beyond what 3G and 4G macro networks can provide alone.
3. Telecom companies aim to lead this transition and gain competitive advantage by evolving their radio access and core networks, focusing on ubiquitous coverage, enhanced customer experience through intelligent resource allocation, and ensuring long-term profitability through service segmentation.Strategic Plans For The Technical And Human Sides Of Convergence

The document discusses trends in the global telecommunications industry from 1999-2015 based on analysis from IBM. It notes that more change has occurred in telecoms in the past 10 years than the previous 100. While access has increased 350% to nearly 70% globally, growth is stalling due to declining mobile and emerging market expansion. The future of telecom revenues and profits is uncertain due to factors like the rise of over-the-top services and data traffic exceeding voice revenues. The document outlines four potential industry scenarios for 2015.Overview del mercato mobile business in Italia

The document discusses the concept of "Home Zone 2.0" as a solution for mobile operators to own voice services in the home. It involves using low-power access points like femtocells and Wi-Fi to provide improved coverage and offload traffic. UMA is identified as the 3GPP standard that can enable Home Zone 2.0 by addressing challenges of earlier cellular-based approaches and leveraging broadband connectivity. Major mobile operators are expected to trial femtocell solutions in 2008 and UMA dual-mode handsets are gaining widespread commercial availability.Wireless Network Optimization (2010)

This document discusses opportunities for wireless network optimization. It notes that mobile data traffic is growing rapidly driven by new services and devices. This is putting pressure on network capacity and quality of experience. The document examines challenges in offering bandwidth at low cost, optimizing network performance, and migrating from legacy to IP networks. It argues that network optimization can help address these challenges by reducing costs, improving quality of experience, and freeing up funds for reinvestment while preparing networks for future growth. The document provides an overview of Alcatel-Lucent's wireless optimization services and their value in helping operators meet these challenges.SIP Trunking - The cornerstone of unified communications

SIP trunks perform some key call and session control and management functions, and serve in place of traditional access lines and trunks.ix Typically provisioned by carriers over T1 trunks, carrier-based SIP trunk services interface between carriers’ nodes and SIP-enabled customer premises equipment, such as a SIP gateway or IP PBX.x SIP Trunks also interconnect customer sites with hosted VOIP/IP centrex services, cloud/software as a service (SaaS) applications, and facilitate customer connectivity with IMS-based applications, like single number service (see sidebar). At the carrier, SIP Trunks interconnect to IP-based WAN services, VOIP/multimedia-enabled network nodes and from these, to the public switched telephone network (PSTN).Sistem me terintegrasi for high rise building Hotel Apartemen Mall

The document discusses migrating email accounts from Medicine & CiCs to Google MailPerspectives. It notes there were approximately 2500 email accounts belonging to staff, honorary staff, and postgraduate researchers across nine departments. The migration process involved adequate support, ensuring no users were migrated over weekends, support from faculty IT staff and CiCs teams, and reviews of progress. The results showed all accounts were successfully migrated, with 10-15% of users requiring direct support. Both the CiCs helpdesk and Med-IT reported no significant increase in support requests. The CiCs perspective was that communication, cooperation, and planning were essential for a seamless transition.Ic update march2011

The university currently has over 300 wireless access points but fewer than many other universities. The wireless network is restricting further development and three services are supported but only using older 802.11 b/g standards. This is causing problems with high user density in some areas.
The core wireless network will be upgraded from 2009-2011 to use better, faster, and more capable access points using a "thin" rather than "thick" design. Around 200 additional access points will be added in consultation with faculties. Existing access points will also be upgraded.
One of the wireless services, Unishef, will be discontinued but support will be provided for affected users. 802.11n will be available in someDirector's Presentation
