7Today
- Today we need to buy access for GSM, broadband,
from operators - however we may actually be lucky that they
exist.
! No cash? No fun!

Being able to contact any person or any
service. Being able to be contacted by any person
or any service.

Reachability
- Telephony services All user can reach all user
worldwide - Today over 2 billion mobile subscribers
- Tomorrow 10 billion (incl. sensors, machines
etc)

- knowing at any time where a user is and how that
user should be contacted.

RELIABILITY
- achieve high levels of service
- ensure network availability
- keep outage times as low as possible
- cope with high network load peaks (flash
crowds, slashdot effect) - provide for emergency calls

30Quality of Service (QoS)
offering subscribers different service levels and
guarantees
31Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS
- E.g.
- average bandwidth
- peak bandwidth
- round trip delays
- jitter
- bit error rates
- network access delay
- voice quality,
- Overall network capacity
- Number of parallel data and/or voice users

4G
- What is 4G?
- Yet another buzzword?
- 3G is not even deployed fully yet
- Why would you want it?
58Self-Study Project
4G
- What is 4G?
- Describe the current state of discussion
- Compare different opinions (who and what)
- e.g. manufacturers (Ericsson, Nokia, Lucent,
Qualcomm, Huawei, ) - e.g. operators (Telenor, NTT DoCoMo, T-Mobile,
France Telecom, BT, ) - e.g. other parties (EU in 6th framework
programme, ) - List main features
- e.g., bandwidth, coverage, quality-of-service,
infrastructure, applications - How does 4G relate to 2G/3G?
- e.g., replacement or compliment, common or new
infrastructure, - e.g. timeline for introductio (2006?, 2011? )
- Your opinion
- e.g. what is your perception what 4G could or
should be? - e.g., why would you want or not want 4G?
