SCOPE OF PRESENTATION • The vision Wireless and Wire-line • Key Highlights in Mobile Wireless • Trends in Mobile Services • WLAN Market Trends • Conclusion • Q & A Session
TRENDS IN MOBILE DEVICES • 880 Million handsets in 2007: GSM based (80.5%), CDMA based (15%), Rest (TDMA/PDC 4.5%) [ARC Group] • Power Supply: Li-Ion, Li-poly to fuel cell technologies • Display: Rotating colour LCD screens to organic LEDs • Storage: Digital media cards into Gbytes, USIM towards Mbytes • Imaging & Video: Integrated cameras (200 million handsets by 2007) [ARC Group] • Human-Machine Interface: Handwriting recognition (Tablet PCs), virtual keyboards and image sensing keyboards • Machine-Machine Connectivity: Bluetooth, USB, Firewire, integrated WLAN chips, UWB hence enabling Ad-hoc networking
TRENDS IN TECHNOLOGY &STANDARDS • Middleware: Mainly J2ME (On most handsets by 2007), BREW (CDMA) • Operating Systems: Symbian OS still leader in 2007 with new entrants, SmartPhone 2002/Pocket PC 2002 Phone Edition, Linux eCOS. • Open Mobile Alliance (device centric): Umbrella organisation pulling together the WAP Forum, Open Mobile Architecture Initiative, Location Interoperability Forum, Wireless Village, SyncML and MMS Interoperability Group. • Open Service Access (network centric): Defines open APIs for multi-vendor interoperability and rapid service creation. • Markup Languages: i-mode (CHTML), WAP (WML) have converged to XHTML Basic progressing to XHTML 2.0
TRENDS IN MOBILE PAYMENT • Billing via: Data volume, airtime, transaction, content, URL access • Large number of incompatible payment systems driven by various institutions, telcos or equipment vendors. For e.g. - 3GPP defined content-based APIs for Open Standard Billing - Mobile Payment Forum (Nov 2001) for payment card account based billing (Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, JCB and telcos like NTT, Hutchison3G, Vodafone, etc) - Paycircle (Jan 2002) for Open APIs in mobile payment (equipment vendors for e.g. HP, Oracle, Siemens, Sun etc) • Micropayment Options for e.g. Bluetooth, Infrared, RFID (ISO14443)

WLAN MARKET TRENDS • Wireless modem chipsets going into external PC cards are on the rise whilst notebook PCs are being built with embedded modems. For e.g. Intel Centrino Solution • By 2006, the embedded miniPCI form factor will be the most popular for WLAN Chipsets. • By 2006, embedded wireless modem modules in PDAs will account for most of the WLAN and cellular modem chipsets. • WLANs are now being adopted as complementary to 2.5G and 3G cellular infrastructure. (Wireless Hotspots) • WLAN is expected to play a key role within next generation cellular handsets and handheld devices.
