Talk given at the Commsday Summit, in April 2013, Syndey, Australia. It focusses on the different aspects of small cells, and why a better name going forward would be smart cells.
The needs of fixed access operators are expanding beyond just providing more bandwidth. There are various other drivers for optical access, with different timeframes of need. Some of these can be met with existing fiber technologies, and some will require new technologies. The industry is considering several next generation PON architectures, each addressing the needs and timeframes to varying degrees.

Designing LoRaWAN for dense IoT deployments webinarActility
This document discusses designing a dense LoRaWAN network deployment. It begins with an overview of LoRaWAN and its importance for IoT applications. It then analyzes LoRaWAN capacity and how capacity scales dramatically with network densification through the use of additional gateways. Densification also improves battery lifetime significantly. The document presents a case study on using LoRaWAN for water metering applications in North America, finding that a dense deployment of low-cost femtocell gateways can reduce total cost of ownership compared to a sparse deployment of tower-mounted gateways. Key takeaways are that network design and adaptive data rate algorithms are important to achieve lower power consumption and optimal scaling with densification.
The proliferation of consumer devices, HDTV and internet based services will continue to drive consumer bandwidth demand and Fiber is the only access technology capable of supporting dedicated gigabit Ethernet bandwidths.

Whitepaper - How to build a mutil-technology scalable IoT Connectivity Platform?Actility
In this paper, we investigate the challenges facing service providers and enterprises for deploying and monetizing LPWAN solution.
We show in this paper that the traditional M2M approach might not be cost-effective for the needs of LPWAN IoT deployments due to dramatically lower ARPU requirements of IoT compared to traditional M2M. We also examine both cellular IoT (NB-IoT or Cat-NB1, Cat-M1, Cat-1) and LoRaWAN, with the objective to demonstrate the complementary aspects of the two technologies. We show how operators extend existing M2M use cases and swap 2G using cellular IoT, and in addition tap into the new unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN. Interestingly, LoRaWAN is a natural over-the-top play for cellular IoT operators, as cellular IoT is an ideal backhaul technology for unlicensed LPWAN concentrators.
Properly matching a connectivity solution to a use case is a complex multidimensional problem requiring analysis of several factors including battery lifetime, coverage, throughput, latency, total cost of ownership (TCO), amongst other factors. We discuss these factors and attempt to build a technology selection chart, and then build a business case for multi-technology IoT platform that leverages both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT to serve the needs of all IoT use cases. We also provide insights on the service provider strategy for LPWAN deployment with examples from Tier-1 MNOs such as SK Telecom and Orange.
Finally, we conclude the paper with overview of ThingPark Wireless as a multi-technology platform that addresses the challenges for both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT deployments.
New technologies options include WDM-PON, VDLS2 bonding, G.fast, and more. In addition, there are new compression techniques and noise mitigation that extend the life of existing networks.

Whitepaper - LoraWAN and Cellular IoT (NB-IoT, LTE-M): How do they complement...Actility
Ericsson’s Mobility Report [3] forecasts that by 2022 more than seventeen billion IoT devices will be connected by wireless communication technologies. The Internet of Things (IoT) market targeting low power, low cost and low-data rate devices capable of communicating over a wide area network -the LPWAN market- is growing very rapidly.
In recent years, there have been significant technological developments in wireless IoT connectivity, with multiple technologies sometimes competing and often responding to different IoT use case requirements. Hence, choosing the right mix of connectivity solutions requires careful consideration. In this paper, we examine both cellular IoT (NB-IoT, Cat-M1) and LoRaWAN, and demonstrate that the two technologies are complementary.
We show how operators extend existing M2M use cases and swap 2G using cellular IoT, and in addition tap into the new unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN. Interestingly, LoRaWAN is a natural over-the-top play for cellular IoT operators, as cellular IoT is an ideal backhaul technology for unlicensed LPWAN concentrators.
Passive optical networks (PONs) provide fiber connectivity to multiple end users using a point-to-multipoint architecture and passive splitters to reduce costs. PONs use a single fiber to the premises, with a passive optical splitter used to feed multiple end users. This allows for fiber-based connectivity at costs similar to copper. Common PON types include GPON, EPON, and BPON. PONs employ wavelength division duplexing with different wavelengths for downstream and upstream traffic and time division multiple access for upstream transmissions.
The document provides an overview of Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) technology as the new standard for structured cabling and LAN connectivity. Some key points include:
- GPON offers significant capital and operational savings compared to traditional Ethernet networks, with up to 70% lower capital expenditures, 80% lower power consumption, and 90% less space utilization.
- It provides a fiber optic LAN infrastructure that is more reliable, secure, scalable and future-proof compared to copper-based networks.
- The passive optical network architecture consolidates voice, video, data and wireless services over a single fiber infrastructure for both residential and business applications.
LONG HAUL MULTI-GIGABIT MICROWAVE: A NEW APPROACHAviat Networks
As the data capacity demand on mobile phone and other wireless operator networks booms, their telecom backbones, or backhaul infrastructures, have struggled to keep pace. To get high volumes of data from coast to coast, operators have in more recent times relied on fiber optic technology for their voice and data traffic. However, for these long-haul operations, fiber lacks practicality, flexibility, cost effectiveness, security and quick time-to-market. Increasingly, operators are turning to the original long-haul telco solution to meet all these needs: microwave radio.
4G LTE is experiencing explosive growth globally with LTE subscriptions growing from 47 million in 2009 to over 800 million in 2013. LTE provides significantly faster speeds than 3G, with downloads taking less than 25 seconds for a 20MB file versus over 3 minutes on 3G. LTE also offers a better quality of experience for activities like streaming HD video with little to no buffering compared to regular buffering on 3G. Various vertical sectors are also adopting LTE for applications such as IPTV, telemedicine, connected vehicles, virtual classrooms and mobile education.

Transformation of the Enterprise Network using Passive Optical LANARolen
This white paper analyzes the total cost of ownership of using a passive optical LAN (POL) solution compared to the present mode of operations (PMO) which uses Ethernet switching for enterprise networks. It models scenarios for a single building and multiple building campus. The POL solution using Motorola's AXS1800 switch provides significant capital expenditure and operational expenditure savings of 41-52% and 71-71% respectively compared to the PMO solutions. This is primarily due to eliminating active workgroup switches and associated costs of power, space and management with the passive optical approach.

Fork() is a system call that creates a new process by duplicating the calling process. The child process created by fork() is an exact duplicate of the parent process, having the same memory space and file descriptors. Exec() is another system call that replaces the current process with a new executable, keeping the same process ID. It is commonly used along with fork() to launch new programs from within a process.

This document discusses field insights from real-world deployments of multi-vendor heterogeneous networks. It summarizes deployment experiences in Russia and a major European city involving over 270 small cells from multiple vendors interconnected via X2 and managed by a third-party core network. Results showed mobility success rates over 99% and continuous coverage up to 30 square kilometers. Multi-vendor heterogeneous networks are presented as an effective solution to address exponential mobile data growth and capacity demands by leveraging the strengths of different equipment providers.
This document discusses the road to a heterogeneous network (HetNet) through densification. It notes that demand for capacity is driving operators to acquire spectrum, densify their networks through a mixture of macro, micro, and pico cells, and consider unlicensed options. The densification will occur from outside networks moving inward, with a blend of macrocells on the outside and micro and picocells below the clutter. This lays the foundation for the transition to 5G networks in the future by blending cellular, WiFi, and improving customer experience.
The document discusses the future of mobile networks known as HetNets and the increasing role of small cells. It notes that small cell deployments are growing rapidly, with over 1 million cells deployed by some major operators. Small cells provide benefits like improved coverage, greater capacity and spectrum efficiency. The document also discusses network considerations for HetNets including interference management and backhaul options. It examines usage scenarios for small cells like in homes, enterprises, rural networks and integrated with Wi-Fi.
This document discusses the evolution from 4G LTE networks to 5G networks.

"Hoe Alcatel-Lucent er voor zorgt dat u niet in de file hoeft te staan op de digitale snelweg", gepresenteerd op de Dag van de Wetenschap , November 2012
The document discusses using small cells to extend rural and remote coverage. Small cells combined with various backhaul techniques like satellite can make connecting rural customers profitable. While macro cells are not economical for small communities, a single public access small cell is more profitable than multiple residential small cells. Rural small cells use satellite or point-to-multipoint microwave for backhaul where traditional options like fiber are not available. Even factoring in backhaul costs, a case study shows a small cell site can be highly profitable, generating over $9000 per month in gross margin.

The annual Melbourne Festival in Australia offers spectators 4 days of horses races, the Derby, Cup, Oaks, and Stakes day.These events are very popular and attended by many spectators. For example, 98K people attended the races during Derby and 106K the horse races during Cup day. the problem is that all these people in one small location caused major network congestion on Telstra’s network.Telstra wanted a capacity solution for the races birdcage VIP area, an area that is only 100 meters by 50 meters.Telstra network is also a very complex. The macros in the surrounding area supported 2 carriers at 850 MHz and 3 carriers at 2100 MHz. It was decided that the metro cells would share one of the 2100 MHz carriers. The solution was to provide coverage to the birdcage with 7 9764 Metro Cells Outdoors. The metro cells integration with this multi-vendor network and multi-carrier HetNet went very smoothlyAdditionally, the metro cells provided good coverage and performance, greatly lessening network congestion. These are some of the KPIs from this event:Carried more than 262K PS sessions and 8.7K CS callsHigh aggregated DL throughput of 1 Mbps95% PS call setup rate on Derby Day98% CS call setup rate on Cup DayGood handover success values, with metro to metro having a 98% success rate You might be wondering why so few voice calls were placed. The birdcage so very noisy and the staff said that you basically could not hear. Therefore, it was much easier to use data communications.
