Network Services and Equipment in the Overall European ICT market • Carrier services and network equipment have a > 50% share of the total European ICT market (EU 25, €614bn) 6,5% 44,4% 10,8% 14,8% 5,5% Source: http://www.softwareleadership.info/
Some Characteristics of the Current Internet • Users are increasingly nomadic and expect the network to adapt itself automatically to the terminal • Main extensions such as multicast, QoS and IP mobility have failed to be widely deployed • Performance problems are usually taken care by patching • Implementation of security solutions left to end-user or closest organisation • Frontier between data services and distribution services (TV, Video On Demand) is becoming progressively more blurred
Some Issues with the Current Internet1/2 • Current structure is becoming increasingly unable to accommodate emerging technology disruptions and the applications that it itself has inspired. Emerging problems include: • Bandwidth as a managed resource • High bandwidths over-proportionally expensive • Commercial providers slow to provide new competitive services • Monitoring and managing the end-end L1/L2 path • Domains of responsibility – who pays for content delivery and P2P? • Equipment heterogeneity, etc
Some Issues with the Current Internet2/2 • Current patch-work or point solutions ineffective • Overall configuration sensitive and difficult • A vast (and sometimes absurd) collection of protocol stacks • Large part of failures resulting from misconfigurations • Security problems • Definition, uptake and deployment of standards • G.709, GFP, LCAS/VCAT
Key Present-Day Trends • Developments within the present IP and Internet architectures (no disruption at the architecture level) • Increase capacity in order to handle the traffic of video-related services • Improve quality of services in terms of performance and reliability + • Research to reverse the current design from • User-defined services communication • Multi-service networks multi-network services
Network Research in FP6Strategic Objectives • Two key directions • Broadband for all • Mobile and wireless systems beyond 3G • Key objectives • Optimised access technologies • EU-wide consolidated approach on regulatory aspects and standardised solutions • EU-wide consolidated approach on appropriate enablers for applications and services • Technology, systems and services in the field of future standards • Spectrum requirements and spectrum usage
Low Cost Broadband Access TechnologiesFP6 Project Case Study: CAPANINA • CAPANINA: Communications from Aerial Platform Networks delivering Broadband Information for All • Objective: • Develop broadband wireless capability from aerial platforms, including High Altitude Platform Systems (HAPS) at speeds up to 120 Mbps, to hard-to-reach fixed users and high speed public transport vehicles travelling at up to 300 km/h • Project type: Specific Targeted Research Project (STREP) • Project website: http://www.capanina.org/
Low Cost Broadband Access Technologies FP6 Project Case Study: POWERNET • POWERNET: Broadband over powerlines that works and meets the user expectations • Objective: • Develop and validate a “plug and play” Cognitive Broadband over Power Lines (CBPL) communication equipment that meets the regulatory requirements on electro-magnetic requirements and can deliver high data rates using low transmit power spectral density • Project type: Specific Targeted Research Project (STREP) • Project website: http://www.ist-powernet.org/
Landscape of FP6 “Mobile and Wireless Systems Beyond 3G” Research
B3G System Architecture and ControlFP6 Project Case Study: ENABLE • ENABLE: Enabling Efficient and Operational Mobility in Large Heterogeneous IP Networks • Objective: • Enhance mobile IPv6 by addressing outstanding issues such as service authorisation, interworking with IPv4, protocol reliability, etc • Enrich basic mobility service provided by Mobile IPv6 with additional features, enabling the on-demand activation and self-configuration of specific premium network features (multihoming, QoS, etc) • Project type: Specific Targeted Research Project (STREP) • Project website:
Mesh and Sensor NetworksFP6 Project Case Study: MAGNET Beyond • MAGNET Beyond: My Personal Adaptive Global Net • Objective: • Enable commercially viable personal networks (PNs) that support resource-efficient, robust, ubiquitous personal services in a secure, heterogeneous networking environment for mobile users • Project type: Integrated Project (IP) • Project website:
Key Emerging Themes… • Broadband • Convergence, linkage of broadband and communications • Pervasive low-cost equipment • Scalability and pervasive networking • Human-oriented • Heterogeneous environment • A single network cannot solve all problems
… and the Accompanying VisionThe Future Network • Interconnection between the real and digital worlds • Dynamic adaptation of the global information and communication system to the user’s environment and preferences • Seamless inter-working of different technologies • Global and generalised mobility, ABC • Connection at any time through the best available network • Self-organisation and autonomic networking • Home networking • Integration of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), personal area networks, mobile ad-hoc networks, home networks, mesh networks, and fixed and mobile access networks
The Future NetworkNGN Services • PSTN / ISDN emulation • Supports legacy phones on an all-IP network leading to operational advantages • PSTN multi-media telephony • Will provide PSTN / ISDN-like voice, video, data calls on IP-phones, PCs, mobiles and handhelds • Messaging and presence • Instant messaging, MMS • Value-added services • IP-TV • Video-on-Demand (VOD), near-VOD, broadcast TV, etc • Regulatory requirements • Number portability, emergency call, data privacy, data retention Source:Martin Niekus, “Global Standards, the Key Enabler for the Next Generation Network “, OECD Foresight Forum, October 2006“
The Future NetworkKey Business Drivers1/2 • Telecommunications and the Internet – a growth market • Telco markets – 8%; Internet – 100% (2001) • Global telecoms market — $ 1,4 trillion (2006) • Clash of IT and TELCO worlds • Increasing range of IT communication services profits from repeat engagement and online advertising– $ 2bn (2002) – $ 18bn (2005) • Introduction of Wi-Fi Internet access services by IT players • E.g. Google, Mountain View, US • IT moves to the mobile domain • E.g. the Yahoo!Go service Source:M.
