Main drivers for LTE in public markets • Exploding traffic • Stagnating voice revenues • Significant Cost pressure • Network complexity • Service provisioning • Subscriber churn • Spectrum cost • Mobile Internet dominating application LTE as new broadband technology with strong demand by public operators.
Main drivers for a Next Generation Railway Communication System • Leveraging the 3GPP eco systemFollowing the 3GPP path to continuously benefit from most successful communication system, guaranteeing interworking and global roaming. Railways should use LTE successor technology for their GSM networks (skipping UMTS). Technologic evolution • Increasing use of data applications and new operational services requires efficient networks • Surveillance, passenger services. • LTE offers more than changing the radio i/f. Broadband applications • Simplified network structure, advanced configuration and supervision technology (e.g. SON - Self Organizing Networks) • Automation reduces human faults, • Self healing networks, speed-up maintenance. Operational improvements
Simplified network structure, advanced configuration & supervision, e.g. SON (Self Organizing Networks) Self-healing • Automated preventive corrections • Minimized network outages Quality Self-optimization • Optimal use of capacity • Maximized availability Self-configuration • Automated BTS/eNB deployments • Faster roll-out OPEX
