The Data Storm

Exponential mobile data growth is driving the need for densification of the mobile network.

o Global Mobile Data grew by 81% in 2013*o Projected to grow by 11x by 2018 to 15.9 Exabytes /

montho New spectrum is scarce, costly and subject to long

regulatory delays

Next Gen Mobile Network

C-RAN Architecture• Moves parts of the mobile network control

function from the cell site to deeper in the network - Base Station Hotel.

• Introduces a new transmission network into the overall mobile network infrastructure – Mobile Fronthaul.

C-RAN Today - Centralized

Centralized RAN Benefits• Speed-to-Market – Ready to go Head-End

Space

• Economies of Scale – Less of everything– Shared hard-infrastructure - space, power, cooling,

security

– Aggregated Backhaul

– Less energy consumed

– Centralized dispatch, maintenance & sparing

C-RAN Tomorrow - Cloud

Cloud RAN Benefits

• Base station resource pooling

• On-Demand resource allocation

• Dynamic resource sharing & resiliency

• Virtualized software definable and tunable architecture

• Lower cost general purpose hardware

Fronthaul Challenge

Urban environments require placing antennas as close to users as possible wherever they are.

• Fiber Availability – Antennas Everywhere = Any-Pair-Anywhere

• CPRI (capacity, latency, management)

• Traditional metro fiber networks weren’t built to meet C-RAN Fronthaul requirements

15



Fronthaul Network Spec

C-RAN requires a specialty network

• Digital Radio over Fiber (CPRI, OBSAI)

• High Bandwidth – 600 Mb/s to 10Gb/s capacity

• Near Zero Jitter & Bit Error Rate

• Low Latency < 100 µs

• Support Up to 10 km BBU/RRU separation

13



18

Launched in 2014 to support the C-Ran evolution in the New York Metro Area

– Fronthaul Fiber Network

– Distributed “Neighborhood” Aggregation Facilities (Base Station Hotels)

– High Capacity Resilient Backhaul Network

Closing - ZenFi Networks

Wireline / Wireless Convergence

Wireless and wireline services are complementary technologies

Consumers want both fixed and mobile connectivity, and they want it seamlessly

A converged approach can improve the business case for new network builds

Telco, CATV, Wireless service providers are evolving to multi-service operators

SESSION SPEAKERS:Steve Crotty



Converged Access – One Network (Voice and Data in Wireless Domain)

• Converged Access – One Network (All-IP Networking)• Transformation of VoIP – Wireless Voice over LTE (VoLTE)• Real-time Voice Services in Packet-Switched Domain (LTE

Packet Data Network)• Integrated Services Model to Accommodate Multiple Different

Quality of Service (QoS) Requirements• Voice traffic – Very low bandwidth, but very low latency

requirements (Delay, Jitter, and Mouth-to-Ear Delay)




Challenges of VoLTE Roll-out and Maintenance:• VoLTE Requires Full End to End Network Design, Testing, and

On-going Optimization and Maintenance• Based upon the IP Application/Service requested, the network

needs to:– Have available End to End resources– Reserve the required amount of Bandwidth– Assign the proper QoS to meet required KPI’s (Accessibility,

Retainibility, Latency metrics)

• Enhanced tools are required to measure and correlate RF survey data (air interface messages), CDR subscriber data, and metrics from Network Elements (e.g. ECP, IMS, P-GW)




Benefits of VoLTE Deployment:• Huge Capital and Operational Expense savings by avoiding the

need to support separate Voice and Data networks (CDMA/UMTS and LTE.)

• Battery Savings in the Devices (UE’s no longer need to support two separate radios)

• Improved Customer Experience with newer devices (Layer Management between Voice and Data)

Washington DC had an average speed of 5.4 Mpbs in 2008-09 compared to an average speed of 12.5 Mpbs in 2012-13

Average US speed has grown to over 6.4 Mpbs in 2012-13 from 3.4 Mbps in 2008-09, indicating that several smaller markets that had low single digit speeds 4-5 years ago are now rapidly catching up to larger markets

This growth will need the establishment of increased peering infrastructure in several tier II markets

What’s Holding up Small Cell Network Deployments?

• Cultural Predisposition

• Necessary shift in real estate negotiations

• Lack of experience

• Cost of small cell equipment

• Cost of backhaul



How Can We Solve Challenges?

• Break the Mold• Title?• Stamped Structural Engineering Drawings?• Full scale environmentals?• Three search-ring candidates?

• Let fiber availability drive the sites process – not RF Engineering

• Turnkey solutions increase scale and reduce cost• New tools can increase solution options• Stress wireless benefits not remuneration

Global Mobile Data Traffic Exploding

• 15.9 Exabytes per Month of • Mobile Data Traffic by 2018

Shift to Higher Bit Rate Mobile Video

Mobile Video Will Generate Over 69 Percent of Mobile Data Traffic by 2018

4G - 15%Connections | 51% of Traffic

4G connection generates 15 times more traffic than a non-4G connection

The Mobile Network in 2013: Signs of a increasingly wireless world• Global mobile data traffic grew 81 percent in 2013 reaching 1.5 exabytes per month• Last year's mobile data traffic was nearly eighteen times the size of the entire global Internet in 2000. • Mobile video traffic exceeded 50 percent of all traffic for the first time in 2012. 53% by the end of 2013• Mobile network connection speeds more than doubled in 2013• In 2013, a fourth-generation (4G) connection generated 14.5x more than a non-4G connection• 4G represents only 2.9% of mobile connections and accounts for 30% of mobile data traffic• Average smartphone usage grew 50 percent in 2013.

DAS (Distributed Antenna Systems)

• Low powered antenna systems connected with cabling to a hub that provide coverage in an area

• Often indoor venues (university buildings, sports arenas, stadiums, hotels, casinos, malls, airports and subways)

• Sometimes in outdoor areas such as urban and suburban areas.

DAS and Small CellsCompetitive or Complementary?

• Indoor Requirements are Evolving. Coverage plus user/building interactions, and analytics

• DAS addresses large venues, heavy user traffic areas• Small Cells address small and middle-market buildings – 4.8 million sites in the

U.S. alone• Deployment and operations are the problem. Neutral Host is the Value Proposition

• Over 60% of indoor building market have some coverage issues

Indoor Market Overview

BYOD -- Multi Operator

Single Operator

• Over 60% of those require BYOD multi-operator services

Neutral Host Sweet Spot



Property Owner / Tenant Needs?

• Open Question for Audience



What issues are Operators experiencing?

• Where to Deploy – Hot Spots or Not Sports

• How Many / What Size– DAS– Small Cells– Wi-Fi

• Budget – Can’t Deploy Everywhere – Operator Driven needs (Offload Macrocell Network)– Self-Service Programs



Neutral Host Benefits?

• Operator

• Property Owner/Tenant

• Visitor or wireless end user
