The State of the Mobile Network

•  Average smartphone usage grew 50 percent in 2013 (Source: Cisco) •  US LTE average download speeds fell 32% in 2013 (Source: OpenSignal)

–  2nd slowest global average speed (of countries that deployed LTE) –  Caused by network loading from smart phone penetraQon

•  Mainly from video and image transfer

Global Mobile Traffic Average LTE Download Speeds

OpenSignal Global State of LTE Report – Feb. 2014 (open signal app)

The State of the LTE Radio Access Network (RAN)

•  LTE is Necessary but not a Panacea –  Newly deployed spectrum bands fill up within months –  Interference from too many LTE cells and/or poor cell planning

•  Noise floor being raised resulKng in UE’s using QPSK modulaKon –  LTE’s adapKve modulaKon to increase speeds is becoming ineffecKve

•  PCI Shortage (504 PCIs) –  Collisions when deploying large number of cells

–  External interference –  Un-‐terminated cable TV wires, LTE boosters, etc.

The State of LTE in ManhaYan

•  BW Demand is Outpacing Supply –  No coverage above 10 stories

from outdoor macro cells –  Interference/noise a major problem

• LTE’s adapKve modulaKon to increase speeds –  A major mobile operator is experiencing such a high noise floor in ManhaYan that all of LTE network is in QPSK Reduced Speed

»  They are now drive tesKng ManhaYan every 3 weeks –  Another major operator has nearly 85% of US network in QPSK

–  VoLTE requires high SINR (i.e low noise/interference) for high QoS

– MIMO requires high SINR to increase throughput (> 10 – 15 dB) Advanced Tools and ConQnual TesQng are Required for Network OpQmizaQon

What is Near Term SoluKon?

7

More Spectrum •  Limited licensed spectrum available (3.5GHz for small cells?) •  Expensive

MigraKon to LTE LTE MIMO

Increased Cell Density

Spectrum Efficiency

•  Largest and fastest return on investment •  BeYer spectral efficiency, throughput improvement OpKmizaKon

Must employ all of these soluQons unQl we get to 5G

•  Carrier grade WiFi and backhaul required (60GHz WiGig?) •  45% of mobile traffic in 2013 (Cisco VNI Mobile 2014)

WiFi/Femto Cell Offload

•  Small Cells and DAS (expensive) •  Backhaul required to each cell/DAS

•  More 2G/3G spectrum re-‐farming to LTE and LTE Advanced •  LTE MIMO (4x4, 8x8) and Hetnets

Maximizing 4G unKl 5G is available

•  Today’s Challenges –  CongesKon where large groups of data users congregate

•  Stadiums, arenas, convenKon, transit hubs •  Over 80% of mobile data traffic is generated in buildings

–  High background signal levels = interference = noise •  Today’s SoluKons

–  Neutral Host DAS –  Small Cells – WiFi Offload


•  Neutral Host DAS


•  Small Cells


•  WiFi Offload –  45% mobile traffic offloaded to Wi-‐Fi in 2013 Source: Cisco VNI –  5 GHz 802.11ac -‐ throughput of at least 500 Mbps –  Qualcomm submiYed proposal in Nov. 2013 to place LTE on 5 GHz unlicensed spectrum (used by Wi-‐Fi)

–  Claims beYer distance, efficiency resulKng in fewer small cells

–  60 GHz WiGig (802.11ad) –  Promises up to 7 Gbps downloads –  First chipsets starKng to become available


•  Coming soon –  Smaller cells –  HetNets and Self-‐organizing networks (SON) –  LTE Advanced – minimum 4x4 MIMO, >70 MHz bandwidth

–  Hotspot 2.0 / 802.11u
