Economic impacts of submarine fiber optic cables and broadband connectivity i...Fola Odufuwa
Subsea cables are the global backbone of the Internet, connecting people, businesses, and economies around the world. They connect us to the cloud, deliver streaming video, and increase efficiency and productivity for business. Subsea cables’ importance is all the more apparent during the Covid19 pandemic when many of us have switched to working from home, remote learning, and online gaming and entertainment.
We studied the economic impacts from subsea cables that arrived in Nigeria (e.g., WACS) to understand how they changed the economy. Improved connectivity led to increases in internet usage and decreases in costs, but infrastructure and affordability challenges meant that impacts were limited to select urban areas. Our results signal the promise connectivity improvements could have in other parts of the country.
Had the pleasure to deliver " Who pays for mobile broadband 2.0" at the Open Mobile Summit 2011 conference in San Francisco. The 2.0 as it is an extension and further thoughts on my delivery at Open Mobile Summit in London 2011 also named " who pays for mobile broadband".
My first Qtel Group Keynote address at the Telecoms World Middle East 2012 conference in Dubai. Its been great fun to do this parting with Europe analysis and the Outlook for the next 8 years. As I will not be totally retired by 2020 please remember that you will be able to hold me accountable for some of my predictions ;-) The Good Ones, The Bad Ones and for sure The Ugly Ones ... Enjoy and shoot back!

Each new device, application and user has unique requirements, and operators are being challenged to meet them all. The key challenge is therefore to build superior performing networks that can handle different types of usage and beat expectations in every situation. We call this Real Performance.
When talking about network performance in the past, the focus was on meeting the huge increase in mobile data traffic. But now Ericsson sees an even more important challenge to address – the diversity of user needs.

http://www.ericsson.com/thecompany/our_publications/ericsson_technology_review
The more people have been able to achieve while on the move, the more dependent society has become on mobile broadband networks. As applications like self-driving vehicles and remotely operated machinery evolve, become more innovative, and more widespread, the level of performance that 5G networks need to deliver will inevitably rise. Keeping pace with ever-increasing demand calls for greater flexibility in all parts of the network, which in turn requires tight integration between 5G radio, transport networks, and cloud infrastructures.

As an operated longrange network, SIGFOX provides connectivity without the need to deploy specific network infrastructures for each application.
Unlike other narrow band or white space solution providers we do not require our customers to invest in network equipment, the SIGFOX network is simply available to any object equipped with our certified connectivity solutions.
From an application point of view, the SIGFOX connectivity solution functions as follows:
• SIGFOX compatible modems are integrated within the physical objects by our certified partner network
• The objects instruct the modems to send messages whenever and wherever needed
• The transmitted data is picked up by the SIGFOX transceivers, and routed to our managed service
• The SIGFOX servers verify the data integrity and route the messages to the application’s IT system.
(...)
Sample use cases.
MAAF Assurances, one of the leading French insurance companies, anticipate the upcoming regulation that will impose by 2015 that each household be equipped with a smoke detector. The fire and/or intrusion alert service that will be using the SIGFOX network will enable MAAF insured customers to be warned directly through SMS, in case the intrusion or smoke detectors send alarms and allow MAAF and their customers to be alerted if there is an anomaly, such as low battery, with the
smoke detector.
Clear Channel Outdooroperates stations throughout France. In order to avoid constant manual inspection of the ad stations, a remote monitoring application has been deployed and the SIGFOX network is used to communicate status information from each ad station to the IT system.

Wireless Infrastructure: Market Shares, Strategies, and Forecasts, Worldwide,...ReportLinker.com
WinterGreen Research announces that it has published a new study Wireless Infrastructure: Market Shares, Strategy, and Forecasts, Worldwide, 2013 to 2019. Next generation mission critical systems are leveraging new technology. The 2013 study has 554 pages, 245 tables and figures. Worldwide Wireless Infrastructure markets are poised to achieve significant growth as Building out core networks and backhaul for smart phones.A smart phone is not very smart if the infrastructure can't support its applications. In response to the high growth smart phone markets, wireless infrastructure promises to grow dramatically in the near term.. Wireless Infrastructure technologies include WiMax, LTE, 4G and HSPA. These technologies are driving much higher capacity from the base station back to the fiber core. Fiber core is putting extreme pressure on provider's infrastructure and backhaul networks.WinterGreen Research predicts that the dramatic growth of wireless infrastructure is based on the growth of smart phones to a one trillion market by 2019, serving an installed base of 8.5 billion, many people having more than one smart phone. Wireless infrastructure markets at $58 billion in 2012 will be $163 billion by 2019, new markets evolved because of the value that apps provide to smart phones, mobile devices, tablets, and the Internet of things.According to Susan Eustis, lead author of the study, 'Wireless Infrastructure is being installed to upgrade core networks and upgrade backhaul and base stations to make systems more modern. Infrastructure for the Internet and for smart mobile devices creates demand for more sophisticated web development and web applications that in turn depend on more sophisticated infrastructure. Everything is going mobile. This evolution is driven by mobile smart phones and tablets that provide universal connectivity. Modern systems represent a significant aspect of Internet market evolution.'The proportions of wireless infrastructure market industry segments are expected to remain much as they are, with the small cells and femtocells achieving strong growth on the access side, the core infrastructure must be upgraded to support the added backhaul backbone infrastructure. Wireless apps are expected to achieve $37 trillion revenue by 2019. This unbelievable growth occurs as the Internet is expanded to implement the interconnection of everything.Digital devices proliferate, machine to machine capabilities vastly expand instrumentation. The digital devices become the engine of a world economy, with apps collecting pennies a day for millions of apps from 8.5 billion people with smart phones by 2019.
Web 2.0 continues to drive consumer/employee demand for content-rich, user-friendly and visually-intense Web applications on “smart-phone devices”.
Supported by the growing adoption of “service-oriented architecture” or S.O.A, XML will continue to leverage the growth in web-based services and Javascript, HTML and CSS programming skill-sets.
The “chunking” or simplification of server-side processes will become more targeted to key user groups for the purpose of collaboration, approvals, and decision-making.
