What happens when my whole life depends on my smartphone? And how can networks ensure that it works perfectly when every person has one in their hand? The smartphone connection becomes a critical tool for our lives. And network performance is critical, not only for a good user experience, but also for the entire ecosystem; device manufacturers, operators and application developers.
How to save legacy telecom business at verge of collapseAbraham Paul
INTERNET is the best thing happened in Communication technology in past few decades. IOT and IOE are the golden catch words that change the whole world. As it appears to millions out there, strangling of Net neutrality will be a horrendous mistake.
Nonetheless, the following facts and concerns call for serious consideration of all stake holders, the Telecom Business groups, Regulators and the Government, lest the World Telecom get disrupted beyond retrieval.
Net netrality without hurting telcos and usersAbraham Paul
No one can stop advancement of Technology; and then Technology changes too quickly too. However, most Technology advancements disrupt the paths it goes through and grows. Same is truer in Information Communication Technology also. Advancement in ICT brought in convergence of Systems & Networks, mode of connectivity, the end links and User end devices and converged various forms of ICT based transactions that helped to provide Universal mode of Telecommunication that help humanity across the word.

Detecon Workshop - Telco and OTT PartnershipsAdrian Hall
Innovation in the field of ICT products and services is significantly changing human communication behaviour and drives data usage on both fixed and mobile networks.
Mobile networks are now dominated by data. If we rewind back to a decade ago, smartphones and application stores were unheard of. Twitter and Facebook were not in existence and YouTube wasn’t as popular. Culturally, consumers are valuing the need to be socially connected in the present day Internet.
The traditional cellular network cannot cope with the increase in data and signaling traffic that is generated and thus is driving carriers in the direction of offload. The Phase 1 approach was centered on immediately relieving congestion on the network by encouraging offload to any available Wi-Fi hotspot. In this second part of the five part offload series, we draw attention to Direct Internet Offload. The concept of Direct Internet Offload is nothing new, but has taken a slight shift considering Wi-Fi’s popularity. And the flexibility to integrate them into mainstream network design offers transformative opportunities for carriers without losing sight of the commitment to make the user experience secure and controlled.

As mobile data usage is growing rapidly each year, and is expected to grow even more aggressively by 2020, the price per Gigabyte for the subscriber is reducing over time across all markets... At the same time, it is increasingly challenging for operators to find monetization schemes for their LTE networks that are in correlation with traffic growth and price drops in one formula. Their own cost of Gigabyte is not decreasing at the same pace as the price per Gigabyte for their subscribers.

What do users from Latin America and the Caribbean should expect from LTE?
1. What Do Users from LATAM and the Caribbean Should Expect from LTE and What MNO's Can Do to
Deliver (Also Available in Spanish)
Posted by jormarguo Feb 27, 2012
So LTE is becoming the big trend in mobile communications throughout the region, browsing, social
networking and other Internet applications being benefited by the new technology create expectations
above levels never seen before. But when a new generation of cellular architecture is introduced in a
market, more often than not, there is a gap between user expectations and what real life
implementations can effectively accomplish. I'm far from being optimistic (which is something I owe to
my technical education); so I think unless key players within the local industry start to inform mobile
consumers now, government regulatory bodies get conscious about the importance of quick spectrum
policies release and MNO quickly enable LTE enhanced features, the number of angry users will be
bigger than the happy ones.
LTE going viral, but less flu viral more like cold viral
LTE commercial launches in Brazil, Puerto Rico and Uruguay, more launches announced for 2012, several
completed trials, and media frenzy have set up the viral behavior for the technology. But the truth is
MNO’s are initially targeting principal cities and are not offering a total country coverage which is well
justified if several constrains are considered, constrains which I’ll mention later, additionally the end
device offering is restricted to USB modems in some countries free of charge, and the spectrum is also
limited majorly 2.6Ghz and some in 2.1Ghz, worth to mention that it is a strong desire for refarming
several bands.
Is LTE walking the same path of UMTS?
I’m well convinced their adoption story is very different, don’t get me wrong, but in terms of delayed
penetration, enhanced features being introduced also late, and its influence to slow the growth of other
technologies, that’s when I’m not so sure how different paths really are. According to several reports,
UMTS 3G technology accounts for 100 million subscribers in LATAM at the end of 2011 something like
15% of all cellular connections in the region, projections state that 4 million of subscribers will be added
each month, and a initial retraction of 2G GSM technology growth is expected no early than last part of
2012; these figures can be used as a reference for a long term analysis. Another approach can be used
considering that LATAM UMTS first commercial services where available back in 2006 and that it wasn’t
till 2009 that it finally took off, so a three year mark can be used to decide how different paths would
finally be as well. Whatever the case or model used to compare them, the fact is that some challenges of
the past must be addressed again for LTE; Backhaul network capacity is not being improved quickly and
spectrum is not abundant, regulatory bodies today use spectrum caps as a mean to control operators.
Real life implementations
MNOs use the line “LTE is going to boost our data business” for current LTE state of the art, this means
that at least at the beginning two important factors must be put aside; the first, is the mesmerizing
2. effect smartphones have on LATAM and Caribbean consumers which will not be an ingredient of LTE,
the second being that voice service is not going to be invited to the party either. How bad is it for the
adoption of the technology? Let’s take a look the users to find out.
MBB (Mobile Broad Band) users
Image source: http://www.thehindu.com/business/article437402.ece
There are three MBB user groups in the region and one potential MBB user group: Occasional, Heavy,
Elite and Users inside communities where conventional wired BB is hard to implement. Of course this
classification is personal and might be open to debate, so comments are welcome. In the Occasional
group you´ll find users who recently acquired an IM (Internet Messaging), Pin to Pin, or a decent web
browser enabled phone, and are just discovering mobile social apps, this group is just adopting new
internet usage patterns but they have either a content restricted plan or a cap in the amount of monthly
data, so usage is mostly occasional and the “Cloud” stills something that pours rain on them. In the
Heavy group you'll find those who already depend on staying connected to develop business, to
entertain themselves or to just feel normal, they use a bigger set of apps and the Cloud is a familiar
concept, for them as long as they get their vital apps delivering as expected, they're happy. The Elite
group, is form by people who already changed completely their Internet usage pattern and challenge
the network performance, they expect MBB to behave as FBB (Fixed Broad Band), normal usage involves
online gaming, P2P, ubiquitous service, anytime, anyplace and every application at the same time. For
these users sometimes a lot is never enough. The final group consists of people targeted by several
government plans to increase internet coverage and mobile infrastructure represents an attractive
alternative for various reasons.
User expectations in the region
3. We users in this region stand out for the need to stay in contact and to be noticed, we are collectivist by
nature and music is a factor of major importance that eases interaction, so above all, operators should
keep this in mind when designing new plans or apps. Now, what the first group should expect it's almost
straight forward, these users should see LTE as a motivator to increase their interest towards Internet
based services and more important, to start using them. The motivation of migration towards LTE can be
accomplish with a bit of help from MNO through the active promotion VOIP apps. Yes, VOIP! Voice
service is the jewel of the crown, I can't think of a better catalyst to speed adoption of a technology
other than the killer of the killer services.
Most of the heavy users already use VOIP apps and other Cloud base services so this group should be
the most beneficiated, as long as they understand that in the beginning, coverage will be limited and
service is going to be bound only to their laptops, if these limitations are well informed by MNO, the
"Heavies" should expect an improved browsing experience with at least 10 times better latency and
plans with a higher threshold on total downloaded data taking into account that the new technology has
a better usage of the available spectrum. MNO should gradually but quickly take advantage of the best
of LTE advance features like Carrier aggregation, High order MIMO, Heterogeneous network deployment
(Macro/Femto) and Advanced interference coordination schemes, without forgetting to put some
pressure on device manufacturers to introduce attractive handsets besides USB modems current
offering.
My words for the Elite group, are the shortest, they should keep expecting... although MNO can use
enhanced QoS/QoE models, backed up with commercial plans adjusted to everyone's needs (at least in
the paper), LTE full potential will not come immediate after implementation. LTE has a big set of
advance features and not all may be available right away due to manufacturer roadmap policies, not to
mention that investigation and standardization bodies continue to work on new features, so a long way
still ahead.
Finally, the spectrum polices play a huge part on fulfilling user expectations, bands above 2Ghz will just
not be enough and LTE coverage will be limited, that’s way the need of refarming 700Mhz band, it is
imperative to speed up analog broadcast to digital conversion, spectrum cap on operators in the region
hinder the adoption of technology and is arguably a good method of control. Lastly the paradigm of
having to geographically free a whole band to license it, must be taken down; a band can be auction
partially to be released in rural areas.
