Broadband For Everyone - INCC 2008 Panel - May 2008 Usman Javaid, PhD Vodafone, UK
Major Drivers ??? • Change in Customer Behavior • Internet is a point of convergence • Emails, shopping, videos, information, music, pictures, TV, radio, social networking, database, … • Passion for new services (communities, VoIP, …) • Change in Technology • Emerging Innovative radio access • Multi-functional, multi-interface user devices • Changing Business Models • New players, Change in roles
Broadband Market – Developed World • Broadband Penetration (Household) • In France, 55.50 % • In UK, 52.25 % • Reaches 71% in Europe by 2013 (44% 2008) [Source: Forrester] • Average Advertised DL Speed
Broadband Market – Developing World • Broadband Penetration in Asia • Lowest in Asia, Cambodia, 0.01% • China, 3.85% • Highest in Asia, Korea, 29% [Source: ITU, 2006] • Case Study: Pakistan • Mobile Phone Penetration • 2.6% in 2004 • 30% in 2007 • 46% in 2008 [Source: GSM Association] • Broadband • Broadband Penetration, 0.04% (2008) • Dial-up Penetration, 10% [Source: PTA]
Broadband Enablers • Fixed Broadband – ADSL • Involve high deployment and installation cost • Suitable for the developed world, where the infrastructure already exists • Mobile Broadband – Wi-Max and LTE • LTE comes ~2 years later than Wi-Max (2009/2010), whereas Wi-Max is already commercially deployed in some parts of the world • LTE has few technical advantages over Wi-Max • LTE can simply go as an extension of UMTS based networks • Wi-Max (no vendor lock-in) • Learning from Experience • Wireless transformed telephony; It will also transform broadband • Wi-Max vs. LTE : Different Markets
Last Few Words… • WiMax Provides Pakistan a Leapfrogging opportunity • Faster, cheaper and more mobile access • Knowledge divide between rural and urban areas • Even if broadband gets to the remote villages, the people then need computers and the ability to use them • Need for creative projects • Nepal Wi-Fi, First Mile Solutions etc.
