The document discusses whether wireless dense networks require a simple rescaling or a change of paradigm. The panelist argues for a change of paradigm. While theoretical network capacity exists, actual capacity is not always available close to users, requiring network densification. However, continually deploying new base stations is not sustainable. The solution proposed is software-defined networking, moving from static, vendor-specific control to dynamic, open, distributed control. This would allow efficient, sustainable deployment of access points through simple hardware, energy-efficient operation, and continuous optimization through complex control.
