  1. ITU Geneva October 2009 _______________________________ Ken Hawk CEO, ubidyne

  2. Ubidyne Background • Spun out from Siemens in 2005 • Raised over $60M in venture funding to commercialize radical new wireless technology • We solve three important operator challenges • Reduce their #1 cost, ie energy • Enable stealth installations practically anywhere • Give operators full control over their radio beams

  3. Ubidyne Background • 2005 Spun out from Siemens with 10M Euro round • 2006 Launched product development • 2007 Signed antenna partnerships • Demonstrated breakthrough D-Chip, S-Chip • 2008 Raised 22Million Euro Series B • Signed NSN (#1 WCDMA OEM) • Shipped fully compliant 3GPP Demo • Made “first call” with NSN Flexistation • Trials with top global operators • Completed Series B financing totaling $43 million Recognized Innovator BACKED BY LEADING GLOBAL INVESTORS

  4. The Problem and The Opportunity

  5. Ubidyne comment: We focus on the biggest problem, the radio

  6. Wireless Network Evolution The Future: Antenna Embedded Radio™ The Present: Remote Radio Head The Past: Conventional BTS Passive Antennas Passive Antennas BTS RET RET COAX Jumpers COAX Cables Masthead Amplifiers Base Station Server Base Station Server Remote Radio Head Heavy Coaxial Cable Operators Demanding Dramatic Reductions in Cost/Bit/Hertz

  7. Major Benefits for Mobile Operators Antenna Embedded Radio™ • CAPEX Reduction • Reduce sites by 1/3rd • OPEX Optimization • 1/2 power consumption • Highest Reliability • Only fault tolerant system today • Environment Friendly • Lowest visual impact Remote placement of BBU

  8. The Breakthrough Makes it Possible Antenna Embedded RadioTM • Extremely Simple, Digital Architecture • Handset costs from handset volumes • Future-proof, Multi-standard, Soft-configurable • Distributed passive cooling with pattern compensation extends MTBF & Reliability • Direct control of signals to each radiator for the ultimate in network optimization Signal 1 Signal 2 Signal 3 Signal 4

  9. Simple, Flexible, Future Proof Versus Multiple Remote Radio Heads Needed for 2x2 , 4x4 MIMO or Tx Diversity Antenna Embedded Radio™ Replaces All of this… Signal 1 Signal 2 Signal 3 Signal 4 The Right Solution For Today and Tomorrow

  10. Example: Independent Tilt per Carrier (UMTS R99 / HSPA) Unique capability to patch network “black holes” Original Vodafone data before optimization Shared tilt optimization Independent tilt optimization Data rate improvement within the problematic sector x 1.6 x 2

  11. Even if it breaks, don’t have to fix it! Single failure Before compensation Single failure After compensation Normal Pattern 2° tilt 5° tilt 5° tilt 5° tilt 4dB 4dB • Self-Healing! • First upper side lobe suppressed automatically • Tilt adjusted to maintain cell coverage Unmatched Service Life due to Built-in Redundancy and Unique Pattern Compensation Capability

  12. Development Status Ubidyne M-Radio and Custom Chips M-Radio • 2H2008: System Design/Development • Completed chipset design and fabrication • Finalized modules and system integration Signal 1 Signal 2 Signal 3 Signal 4 13

  13. Accomplishments • 1Q2009: Lab/Chamber Testing • Completed 3GPP HSPA, HSPA+ testing • Completed 1st lab call with OEM radio server • Demonstrated innovative precise antenna pattern control • Multiple tilt angles • Across frequency, time, and temperature • Both Tx and Rx paths • Near field and far field • 2Q2009: Field Trials • Operator trial • Basic performance • RRH replacement • Interoperability with OEM radio server • Unique capabilities BEYOND RRH! • Pattern Shaping/Control • Tilt Control (ex. Different Tx/Rx) • Self healing / pattern compensation

  14. Product Roadmap Dual-band/ Multi-Standard 2100 2600 • 2600Mhz • LTE • Single and Dual Column • MIMO Options 4Q11 • Dual Band • 2100Mhz • UMTS+LTE • 1800Mhz • GSM+UMTS+LTE 2100 Multi-Standard • 2100Mhz • UMTS+LTE 2Q11 4Q10 900 900 Multi-Standard • 900Mhz • GSM+UMTS+LTE all digital • 900Mhz • UMTS, HSPA, HSPA+ 1Q10 3Q09 Options: LTE700, LTE800 Availability from Ubidyne 2009 2010 2011 2012
