  1. The role of innovation and research Magnus MadforsEricsson, Chairman of the Technology Platform eMobility

  2. China • 3G licenses not yet granted • Research on beyond 3G in 863 FuTURE Project • Joint Research Center Shanghai • North America • IEEE activities in • IEEE 802.11a, b, g, h, n • IEEE 802.15 • IEEE 802.16, a, d, e • IEEE 802.20 • IEEE 802.21 • Claims from start-ups and IT companies to provide 4G solutions • Flarion (Fast Low Latency Access with Seamless Handoff and OFDM) • Arraycomm – advanced antenna technology and SDMA • Navini Networks – Advanced beamforming technology for range & coverage • IP Wireless – TD-CDMA with IP core network • Aperto Networks – Fixed Broadband Wireless Access vendor • Redline Communications – Fixed BWA • Airspan – Fixed BWA • Alvarion – Fixed BWA • Intel – Active in 802.16 development and its promotion in WiMAX • Many activities are on short-range and WLAN enhancements • Europe • UMTS • UMTS enhancements • Research on systems beyond 3G in FP6 • Korea • Reluctant with wide-spread 3G deployment • HPI / WiBro (WiMAX derivative) under development (3.5G) • Research on systems beyond 3G • European industry is still in the lead of future development, but is being challenged by Asia and North America • European Commission's Framework Programs play an important role within R&D Europe has a long tradition of developing global harmonised standards - GSM, 3G/WCDMA • Europe • Japan • 3G deployment (cdma2000, WCDMA) • Enhancements of 3G • Research on systems beyond 3G • DoCoMo proposal Super 3G • CJK – China, Japan, Korea • Cooperation on government level, one working group on mobile communication • Cooperation between SDOs • Globally • ITU-R Framework • Recommendation • WWRF, since 2001 Global activities on future systems

  3. Meeting the challenge • Competing in a changing world Leadership requires concerted efforts of all players incl. regulators and governments to provide the environment needed for growth • Consensus building Complexity and need for global standards, requires cooperation beginning with research • Europe’s industry is fully committed 10-20% of turn-over are committed to R & D, where the collaborative R&D comprises less than 1%

  4. European initiatives

  6. International consensus building at an early stage • Increasing investment in solutions • Increasing IPR portfolios Chance for consensus building Products and markets in competitive environment Pre-competitive early collaborative research Standardisation in early competitive environment Grade of concept maturity IPRs

  7. 1980s 1990s 2000s 2010s 1G+ 2G+ 3G+ Beyond 3G+ 1G 2G 3G Beyond 3G Analog Digital Wideband Digital ??? European research on 3G started in 1989 within the RACE I program and 1991 in RACE II European research on 3G continued in 1995 within the ACTS program European research on systems beyond 3G started in 1999 within the IST program Framework Program 6 on future systems European research programs on mobile and wireless

  8. Collaborative research on European level • Research at European level essential to enable consensus building towards harmonised solutions in early stages in research • Prerequisite for technology leadership • Development of global harmonised standards is made possible through • Global coordination of spectrum allocations • Possibility to protect achieved results, stimulating investments in R&D • The EU Framework Programmes enable key players to cooperate in pre-competitive domain • Public funding corresponds only to small fraction of industry spending for R&D
