NOTABLE  NOTES  

Project  Velocity  IP  ‘VIP’  =    40,000  small  cell  deployments  

1,000  DAS  deployments  By  the  end  of  2014  

First  to  install  a  na:onwide  

commercial  residen,al  femtocell  service  

Juniper  Networks  research  reveals  U.S.  number  4  in  LTE  penetra,on  (a\er  S.  Korea,  Japan  and  Australia)  

Page 6: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

DAS  vs.  Small  Cell  

DAS                                                       Small  Cell  Can  cover  mul,ple  operators,  frequency  bands  and  technologies  (GSM,  CDMA,  HSPA,  LTE  &  WiFi)  

Developed  as  an  eye  for  leasing  (homes,  enterprises,  metro  cells,  rural  and  mul,-­‐technology)  

Deployed  by  operators,  neutral  host  or  landlords  

Typically  serves  just  one  operator  &  one  technology  

Effec,ve  for  complex,  large  deployments  

Good  for  piecemeal  deployments  in  smaller  spaces  

Coverage  solu,on  and  supports  increased  capacity  needs  

Support  for  hot  spots  to  gain  beder  coverage  &  capacity  

Deployed  outdoors  &  indoors   Deployed  outdoors  &  indoors  

VS.  

Some  similari,es,  different  technologies,  different  needs.    Both  are  stronger  together  as  a  combined/integrated  solu:on.    

Page 7: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

Key  Challenges  

VS  Challenges  for  both  DAS  and  small  cell  deployments  are  similar:  

Power  /  Real  Estate  /  Backhaul  

-­‐  Finding  an  outdoor  site  for  small  cell  deployments  can  be  expensive  -­‐  Lack  of  access  to  power  -­‐  Backhaul  solu,ons  are  expensive  and  inefficient  -­‐  Management  of  a  ‘converged’  network  of  macro  cells  and  small  cells  is  

cumbersome  -­‐  Today’s  integrated  networks  are  complex  to  install  -­‐  Outdoor  deployments  complex  (can’t  just  hang  a  system  on  a  u,lity  pole)  -­‐  Biggest  building  boom  for  telecom  in  years  –  lack  of  access  to  

knowledgeable,  experienced  employees  and  experts  

Everything  in  wireless  takes  longer!  

Page 8: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

Considera,ons:  Discerning  the  Right  Solu,on    

VS  -­‐  Macro  cell  network  alterna:ve  solu:ons/considera:ons  

-­‐  Adding  spectrum  or  carriers  -­‐  Upgrading  to  a  higher  modula,on  scheme  -­‐  Employ  sectoriza,on  

-­‐  Small  Cells  -­‐  Experience  -­‐  Less  solu,ons  deployed  means  less  experience  in  the  

market  -­‐  Volume  –  How  many  devices  are  being  deployed  in  the  field  and  how  

will  it  effect  the  network  -­‐  Control  of  the  network  –  retaining  control  of  the  network  is  a  key  

considera,on  to  ensuring  customer  care  -­‐  DAS  

-­‐  What  is  it  good  for?    An  unclear  customer  base  such  as  those  in  entertainment  venues,  hospitals,  arenas,  higher  educa,on  campuses,  etc.  

Page 9: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

It’s  not  a  DAS  vs.  Small  Cell  World  

VS  Not  always  either/or  it  could  be  both/and….  

‘THE  ERA  OF  CONVERGENCE’  

-­‐  Small  cells  are  just  one  part  of  the  larger  array  of  op,ons  -­‐  Macro  cell  sharing  solu,ons  could  spawn  interest  in  small  cell  sharing  

models  -­‐  Wireless  Technology  is  as  essen,al  as  plumbing,  hea,ng  and  ligh,ng  -­‐  DAS  is  considered  the  4th  u,lity  -­‐  Converged  architecture  brings  licenses  and  unlicensed  networks  together  

enabling  great  coverage  and  capacity  -­‐  “I  could  be  used  to  complement.    I  don’t  see  small  cells  replacing  DAS”  

according  to  Aditya  Kaul,  Analyst  at  ABI  Research    Macro  cell,  small  cell  and  DAS  all  work  together  to  provide  

beaer  capacity  and  coverage.      

Page 10: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Future  is  Bright  

VS  

-­‐  Small  cell  deployments  will  grow  faster  (because  not  as  many  have  been  deployed  so  far)  

-­‐  Small  cell  with  distributed  macro  cell  solu,ons  are  changing  the  way  new  LTE  RAN  will  be  designed  

-­‐  Small  cells  are  just  one  part  of  the  larger  array  of  op,ons    

New  Technologies  and  new  business  models  are  constantly  changing!    -­‐  Mul,-­‐Standard  Metrocells  (MSMs)  –  AT&T’s  solu,on  deploys  small  cells  

in  a  single  unit  that  combines  LTE,  HSPA  and  WiFi  -­‐  Innova,ve  Technologies  like  Small  Cell  RAN  (Ubiquisys/Cisco)  -­‐  Alcatel-­‐Lucent’s  Lightradio  Live  -­‐  Self-­‐Organizing  Network  (SON)  technology  -­‐  Femtocell  as  a  solu,on  (FaaS).    ABI  Research  predicts  that  10%  of  

regional  carriers  in  the  US  will  us  FaaS  providers  for:  -­‐  Wholesale  delivery  of  femtocell  services    

AND  MUCH  MORE!

Page 37: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Problem    -­‐  Wireless  vs.  Wireline  

•  51.7  percent  of  U.S.  homes  don’t  have  or  didn’t  use  their  landlines  in  the  first  half  of  2012.    And  this  is  expected  to  con,nue  to  increase.  

Page 38: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Problem  –  Mobile  Data  Usage  

•  According  to  Heavy  Reading  (trade  publica,on)  50%  of  all  mobile  data  usage  is  at  home  in  2011;  by  2016  projected  to  be  65%.    

•  According  to  Pew  Research,  66%  of  18-­‐29  year  olds  have  Smartphones,  45%  of  total  adults  have  Smartphones.    

•  Smartphone  and  Tablet  users  require  between  50  to  120  ,mes  capacity  of  standard  cellphones.    

•  According  to  Ericsson  and  GigaOm,  data  now  accounts  for  85%  of  all  cellular  traffic.    

Summary:  Mobile  data  usage  will  grow  dramaHcally  and  indoor-­‐at  home  wireless  service  is,  or  will  become  very  important.    

Page 39: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Problem  –  Green  Buildings  

•  Energy  efficient  windows  (“Low  E  Glass”)  effec,vely  block  a  significant  amount  of  wireless  (RF)  signals  from  entering/leaving  buildings  resul,ng  in  poor  coverage.  

Page 40: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Solu,on  -­‐  DAS  

•  Advantages  of  DAS  for  Residen,al  Hi-­‐Rise  Applica,ons  –  Single  antenna  system  supports  mul,ple  carriers  and  technologies  (minimal  visual  impact)  

–  Install  once,  future  changes  all  in  Head  End  (invisible  to  residents)  

–  Poten,al  synergy  with  current/future  Public  Safety  requirements  

–  Centralize  ac,ve  elements  (no  need  to  access  residents  private  space  aPer  iniHal  installaHon)  

Page 41: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Solu,on  -­‐  DAS  

•  Challenges  of  DAS  for  Residen,al  Hi-­‐Rise  Applica,ons  –  Keeping  antennas  “hidden”  –  Cost,  including  DAS  and  BTS/Repeater  equipment  

•  ROI  model  for  WSP  is  weak  •  Strategic  value?  

–  Space  alloca,on  (IDF  closets  and  Head  End  Room)  –  and  associated  “cost”  

Page 42: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Solu,on  –  Small  Cells  

•  Advantages  of  Small  Cells  for  Residen,al  Hi-­‐Rise  Applica,ons  –  Low  cost  per  unit  (Few  thousand  $$)  –  Ease  of  installa,on  –  No  need  for  a  Head  End  Room  (saving  on  real  estate)  

Page 43: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Solu,on  –  Small  Cells  

•  Challenges  of  Small  Cells  for  Residen,al  Hi-­‐Rise  Applica,ons  –  Keeping  the  quan,ty  required  to  a  minimum  

•  One  Small  Cell  =  one  WSP  •  One  Small  Cell  =  one  technology  (currently)  •  Limited  power  =  limited  coverage  area  •  Limited  capacity  

–  Backhaul  –  requires  Ethernet  connec,vity  from  each  Small  Cell  back  to  the  WSP  switching  network  

– Maintenance,  especially  if  Small  Cells  are  installed  in  apartments  

Page 44: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Solu,on  -­‐  WiFi  

•  Advantages  of  WiFi  for  Residen,al  Hi-­‐Rise  Applica,ons  –  Low  Cost  (especially  for  private  wireless  routers)  –  High  speed  and  large  capacity  available    (100  Mbps  per  user),  with  higher  speeds  imminent  (802.11ac)  

–  One  technology  -­‐  Supports  all    Smartphones,  tablets,  Roku,  xBox,  AppleTV,  etc.    

Page 45: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

The  Solu,on  –  Small  Cells  

•  Challenges  of  WiFi  for  Residen,al  Hi-­‐Rise  Applica,ons  –  Interference/Reliability  –  Lack  of  connec,vity  to  WSPs  

•  May  change  soon  –  Hotspot  2.0

E-­‐MBMs  

•  Evolved  Mul,media  Broadcast  Mul,cast  Services  (MBMS)  is  a  point-­‐to-­‐mul,point  interface  for  exis,ng  and  upcoming  3GPP  cellular  networks,  which  is  designed  to  provide  efficient  delivery  of  broadcast  and  mul,cast  services,  both  within  a  cell  as  well  as  within  the  core  network.    

•  The  service  is  aimed  at  reducing  network  load  when  there's  some  traffic  workload  that  everyone  on  the  network  in  either  a  single  cell,  region,  or  en,re  network  are  likely  to  watch  or  view

VoLTE  

•  VoLTE:    The  promise  of  LTE  –  One  flat  IP  network  for  both  voice  and  data  

•  VoLTE  first  deployment:    MetroPCS  (2012),  Verizon  (2014)  –  VoLTE/IMS  for  call  control  

•  VoLTE  requirements  –  2G-­‐3G  voice  quality  (beder  than  VOIP  which  is  best  effort)  –  Low  latency  –  RAN  Op,miza,on  goal  (SINR  10  dB  over  90%  of  coverage  area)

VoLTE  Enablers  

Why  VoLTE  is  not  just  another  VOIP  Service  •  QoS  

–  Dedicated  data  bearer  –  Dynamic  scheduler  at  base  sta,on  –  Quality  of  Class  Indicator  (QCI)  for  sesng  priority  

•  RAN  Enhancements  –  Semi-­‐persistent  scheduler  –  Transmission  Timing  Interval  (TTI)  –  Robust  Header  Compression  (RoHC)  

•  IP  Mul,media  Subsystem  (IMS)  –  Session  Ini,a,on  Protocol  (SIP)  –  Policy  and  Changing  Rules  Func,on  (PCRF)  –  Real  ,me  transport  protocol  (RTP)  –  Real-­‐,me  Streaming  Protocol  (RTSP)  

Page 75: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

New  Spectrum  Opportuni,es  

•  US  Spectrum  Opportuni,es  –  600  MHz  Band  via  FCC  incen,ve  auc,on  (2014)  

•  Up  to  126  MHz  of  spectrum  from  UHF  analog  TV  

–  1695  to  1710  MHz  (15  MHz)  2015  FCC  target  –  3500  Band  up  to  100  MHz  of  spectrum  for  small  cells  (2015  FCC  target)  

•  Shared  with  military  and  marine  radar  systems  in  coastal  regions  

•  EMEA  Spectrum  Opportuni,es  –  700/800  Digital  Dividend  (E-­‐UTRA  Bands  20,  28  and  44)  

•  Available  due  the  transi,on  from  analog  TV  to  Digital  •  Under  review  at  the  Wireless  Radio  Communica,on  Conf.  (2015)  

–  1700  and  2100  band  (25  MHz  each)  

Page 76: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

Spectrum  Proper,es    

•  Not  all  spectrum  bands  are  created  equal  –  Lower  frequency  bands  (450  -­‐  900  MHz)  

•  Travels  long  distance  for  coverage  •  Good  building  and  foliage  penetra,on    

–  Higher  frequencies  (1700  –  2600  MHz)  •  Poor  distance  coverage  •  Poor  building  and  foliage  penetra,on  

–  2600  MHz  typically  requires  9x  number  of  antennas  to  provide  the  same  coverage  as  700  MHz  

•  Rural  areas  (key  factor  is  coverage)  –  Lower  frequency  band  beder  

•  Urban  areas  (key  factor  is  capacity)  –  Will  require  large  number  of  cells  anyway  to  provide  coverage  –  LTE  uses  1:1  frequency  reuse,  more  interference  issues  with  lower  frequencies  

•  In-­‐building  (key  factor  maybe  capacity  (stadium)  or  coverage  (conven,on  center))

Spectrum  Usage  in  LTE-­‐Advanced  

•  LTE-­‐Advanced  (Hetnets)  –  Geo-­‐locate  hotspots  in  a  sector  and  add  a  small  cell  to  improve  capacity  –  If  using  same  band,  requires  inter-­‐cell  interference  coordina,on  (complex)  –  Prefer  to  use  high  frequency  band  (3500  MHz)  for  Small  Cell    

•  No  interference  issues  or  coordina,on  required  and  doesn’t  travel  far    

Macro Cell

Small Cell Low  throughput  around  edges  without  interference  coordina,on  

–  In-­‐Building  (Stadium  Example)      

Poor  separa,on  between  yellow  and  red  sectors  

Employing  separate  bands  (AWS  and  3500)  reduces  noise  (higher  SINR)  thereby  maximizes  throughput  (capacity)

Page 79: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

Spectrum  in  a  5G/6G  World  

•  5G/6G  Requirements  (2020  and  beyond)  –  10  –  100x  data  rates  (10  Gb/s  download  speeds)  –  1000x  capacity/area  –  100  Gb  cell  capacity  

•  Spectrum  Opportuni,es  (to  achieve  high  data  rates)  –  Microwave  (3  GHz  –  30  GHz)  and  Millimeter  Band  (30  GHz  –  300  GHz)  

•  24  GHz  –  40  GHz  currently  being  inves,gated  •  Line-­‐of-­‐sight  and  short  distances  (1m  -­‐  60m  realis,cally)  •  Severely  affected  by  rain,  fog,  snow,  foliage,  etc.    

–  Lots  of  spectrum  is  available  

•  WiFi  Offload  –  802.11ad  (WiGig)  

•  60  GHz  spectrum  with  a  range  of  <10m  (7  Gbps  download,  up  to  25  Gbps)  

Next  Genera:on  mobile  technology  will  be  primarily  for  in-­‐building  use  

Page 80: NEDAS DC Educational Summit - the Era of Convergence - Presentation Deck

Summary  and  Conclusions  

•  Spectrum  is  a  finite  and  expensive  resource  –  The  Radio  Access  Network  (RAN)  is  the  most  cri,cal  piece  of  the  mobile  

network  •  Air  environment  is  an  uncontrolled  medium  unlike  fiber  or  copper  •  Subject  to  environmental  condi,ons  •  Anyone  can  generate  a  source  of  interference  •  1°variance  in  antenna  azimuth  or  ,lt  can  result  in  10  dB  signal  difference  (dropped  calls  or  

Mb/s  reduc,on  in  data  throughput)  

•  Op,miza,on  of  in-­‐building  RAN  must  be  done  during  deployment  –  Unable  to  get  access  to  the  building  later  for  op,miza,on  

•  Next  Genera,on  Mobile  Technology  will  be  in-­‐building  centric  

Mobile  networks  will  become  so  cri:cal  that  future  RANs  will  have  live  network  monitoring  of  the  over-­‐the-­‐air  signal  

DAS  will  be  at  the  center  of  Next  Genera:on  Mobile  Networks
