Broadband For Everyone- INCC 2008 Panel -

May 2008

Major Drivers ???

• Change in Customer Behavior Internet is a point of convergence

− Emails, shopping, videos, information, music, pictures, TV, radio, social networking, database, …

Passion for new services (communities, VoIP, …)

• Change in Technology Emerging Innovative radio access Multi-functional, multi-interface user devices

• Changing Business Models New players, Change in roles

Broadband Market – Developed World

• Broadband Penetration (Household) In France, 55.50 % In UK, 52.25 % Reaches 71% in Europe by 2013 (44% 2008) [Source: Forrester]

• Average Advertised DL Speed

Broadband Market – Developing World

• Broadband Penetration in Asia Lowest in Asia, Cambodia, 0.01% China, 3.85% Highest in Asia, Korea, 29% [Source: ITU, 2006]

• Case Study: Pakistan Mobile Phone Penetration

− 2.6% in 2004− 30% in 2007− 46% in 2008 [Source: GSM Association]

Broadband− Broadband Penetration, 0.04% (2008) − Dial-up Penetration, 10% [Source: PTA]

Broadband Enablers

• Fixed Broadband – ADSL Involve high deployment and installation cost Suitable for the developed world, where the infrastructure already

exists

• Mobile Broadband – Wi-Max and LTE LTE comes ~2 years later than Wi-Max (2009/2010), whereas Wi-

Max is already commercially deployed in some parts of the world LTE has few technical advantages over Wi-Max LTE can simply go as an extension of UMTS based networks Wi-Max (no vendor lock-in)

• Learning from Experience Wireless transformed telephony; It will also transform broadband Wi-Max vs. LTE : Different Markets

Last Few Words…

• WiMax Provides Pakistan a Leapfrogging opportunity Faster, cheaper and more mobile access

• Knowledge divide between rural and urban areas Even if broadband gets to the remote villages, the people then need

computers and the ability to use them

• Need for creative projects Nepal Wi-Fi, First Mile Solutions etc.

Wireless Broadband

• Cellular Evolution: Long Term Evolution (LTE) Next generation of UMTS at 3GPP Data-rates upto 100 Mbps (DL), 50 Mbps (UL) Fully support All-IP notion Based on OFDM, MIMO Demos and Trials are planned for 2007/2008

• Data Evolution: Wi-Max Wireless solution for high data-rate mobile access over long distance Fixed Wi-Max: point-to-point and point-to-multipoint Mobile Wi-Max: includes mobility support (70 Mbps) Mobile Wi-Max Now included in IMT-2000 375 trials and Deployments [Source: Wi-Max Forum]

WiMax-II would be proposed for IMT-Advanced-4G

• Goal: 100 Mbps Mobile and 1Gbps fixed nomadic bandwidth (4G NGMN)
