This document discusses how to monetize 4G LTE networks through various revenue streams. It outlines a 4-phase LTE lifecycle including network planning, rollout, market rollout, and monetization. Potential revenue arms of monetization include offering fixed broadband services to meet bandwidth demands, expanding beyond consumer segments for fixed services, leveraging value-added services (VAS) like mobile apps, and bundling the right offerings to own the user experience. Diameter routing technology can help optimize signaling traffic and enable interworking between networks to support these monetization strategies.

5. BIEL is working in Bangladesh since 2007 with ISP
license having one of the first & biggest large-scale
deployment of a 3.5 GHz WiMAX network.
Currently, it covers major areas of Dhaka including
Uttara, Gulshan, Mohakhali, Dhanmondi,
Motijheel & its surrounding areas.
BIEL has been granted BWA License according to
the BWA guidelines by BTRC in Nov, 2013
BIEL has compiled with all financial conditions
for obtaining BWA Services License successfully
which allows BIEL to provide BWA Services in
2.5-2.6 MHz spectrum brand.

7. Phase 4 - Monetization
To see profits from new services, we have to
leverage investments in LTE. Innovative app
stores, storefronts and advertising help sell
content and value-added services. We can also
leverage new revenue sharing models, and
monetize new assets through service delivery
platforms. Personalization enhances the customer
experience and helps cross-sell and up-sell.
Phase 3 – Market Rollout
Launching LTE services early positions us to grow
market share. But our business and operational
support systems must be LTE-ready and equipped
with the flexibility and muscle to handle many
challenges, including exponential growth in
volume and complexity of events, a proliferation
of new devices, services, pricing and business
models, and a large partner ecosystem.
Phase 1 - Network & Commercial Planning
To maximize returns on our LTE investment,
we need to plan our network for maximum
efficiency. In addition, we need a clear
strategy for monetizing new services and
business models that LTE enables. This may
require enhancing business and operational
support systems.
Phase 2 – Network Rollout
Rolling out the LTE network is enormously
complex and expensive. It requires building
and managing new cell sites cost-effectively,
expanding your backhaul transmission
capacity, and managing 2G, 3G and 4G
networks in parallel. To reduce total cost of
ownership, we need sophisticated network
management tools that can automate and
simplify complex tasks.

establishing something into legal tender
(Paper currency and coins are common forms of legal tender)

19.  Data revenues are estimated to be roughly $317 B USD in 2013 growing to just short of $490 B USD in 2018.
 VoLTE is expected to grow from $550 M to 31.5 B USD from 2013 to 2018 respectively.
 VAS application opportunities are particularly attractive, such as the Automotive Market Vertical, which we
see growing at a rate of CAGR 98% between 2014 and 2019.
Prospective Fields:
• Mobile Advertising
• Social Networking Services
• LBS Service Subscriptions
• Gaming Subscription Services
• Virtual Goods Market
• Streaming TV, PayTV, Multiscreen
• Mobile Health Services
• Music Subscriptions Services
• Automotive Market Vertical
• Public Safety LTE
• Ad Revenues from Small Cells

Behind Monetization
Diameter Routing

25. The Value of Diameter Routing

26. Diameter Signaling Controller
In many ways, a DSC handles Diameter the way that an SBC
handles SIP: by routing messages more efficiently,
preventing network overloads, and interworking different
variations of Diameter signaling between devices. Instead of
a complex mesh of Diameter signaling messages flowing
between dozens of IMS elements, a DSC acts as a central
mediator that streamlines the flow of Diameter signaling
messages in the network.
Beyond reducing the amount of Diameter signaling traffic in
the core network, DSCs (like SBCs) provide a variety of other
benefits to the network including:
 Provide load balancing of Diameter signaling traffic to
prevent network element overload/service interruptions
 Interwork Diameter and MAP protocols for LTE
Interoperability with 2G/3G networks
 Further secure the network border through IPsec
encryption, DoS protection, network topology hiding, etc.
 Enforce Diameter interoperability through manipulation
of Attribute Value Pairs (AVPs)
 Simplify the provisioning of Diameter elements
