Methodology Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Methodology
Infrastructure Technologies • Functionalities in the telecommunication network: • The TeliaSonera Swedish UMTS network in focus • 2003-2005 is the time frame: • To avoid a too futuristic approach • Important to find: • What features will probably be supported ? • What will these enable ? Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Infrastructure Technologies
UMTS • 3G equals UMTS in Sweden: WCDMA in FDD-mode • 3GPP standards: R99, R4, R5 – IMS, R6 • R99 and R4 in focus for 2003-2005 • Higher bit rates than 2.5G – 384 Kbps from ~40 • Better network capacity – possibility to extend by adding more bearer frequencies • Simultaneous voice and data – Multi-RAB feature Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Infrastructure Technologies – UMTS
QoS – Quality of Service • QoS definition: – The networks ability to match end-user and 3G service/application requirements to network capabilities • Four QoS classes: • Conversational, Streaming, Interactive, Background • Main distinguishing factors are delay and error sensitivity • TeliaSonera situation 2003 – 2005: • All classes probably implemented • Probably TeliaSonera intra-network QoS • End-to-end QoS uncertain Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Infrastructure Technologies – QoS
Enabling Technologies • Important for a 3G service analysis: • Wide range of enabling technologies • Most important ones in focus • Loser coupling to features of the UMTS networks • 2003 – 2005 the timeframe Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Enabling Technologies
Positioning • Cell ID + RTT in TeliaSonera UMTS network • similar to Cell ID + TA in GSM/GPRS • A-GPS interesting enhancement: • Much better accuracy: 2-100m • A-GPS with fallback in Cell-ID + RTT Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Enabling Technologies - Positioning
Data retrieval & upload • Download vs. Streaming • Streaming: faster playback of media content • Download: better quality of content, saving option • Progressive download and HTTP streaming • FTP download/upload is growing Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Enabling Technologies – Data retrieval & upload
TeliaSonera UMTS mobile streaming • QoS supported • Implementation compliant with 3GPP streaming standard: • Streaming protocols • Audio and video codecs • Content placed on media servers on the TeliaSonera IP backbone Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Enabling Technologies – Data retrieval & upload
Mobile browsing • The “X” Markup languages • XHTML Basic • Defined by the W3C • Builds on XML • XHTML Mobile Profile (XHTMLMP): • WAP Forum and W3C • Extends XHTML Basic • Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) important factor • Separation of content and presentation • WAP delivery model still best, WAP 2.0 more Internet support Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Enabling Technologies – Data retrieval & upload

Hardware • Memory: – Follows Moore´s law, probably no limitation factor • Displays: – Better resolution, more colors (65K common), 4096 critical value • Batteries: • Slow increase ~ 2% per year since 1950 • More power demanding functionalities • Probably a limitation factor – shorter use times. • CPU: • Moore´s law -> No limitation factor • Power must be balanced with power consumption Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Terminal Capabilities - Hardware
Hardware cont´ • Embedded cameras: • Probable included in many 3G terminals • MMS and mobile video telephony main demanders • Dual-mode twin cameras probably common Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Terminal Capabilities - Hardware
Software • Symbian and Microsoft strong candidates for mobile operating systems. • Microsoft Execution environment good for business services. • JAVA MIDP 2.0 common in 3G terminals • Better game development • Better security – HTTPS, SSL • Wakeup of sleeping application Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 Terminal Capabilities - Hardware
PAAMMTO-3G Service Creation Aid • Method to rank the core concept of a 3G service • In the early process of 3G service development • To valuate 3rd party 3G services • Developed from: • Input from qualitative interviews • Existing service creation aids • Own research • Six attributes • A successful 3G service should be strong in all attributes Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 PAAMMTO-3G Service Creation Aid
P-Personality • 3G services shall address end-user personality: • Enable end-users to express personality • Or change according to end-user preferences • Communication services strong in this attribute by nature: • MMS and mobile video telephony are strong • Ring tones another example Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 P – Personality
AA-Anywhere to Anyone • The nature of the mobility factor in mobile services is availability anywhere at anytime • Network coverage should be provided anywhere in Sweden • When abroad, roaming shall be supported • When communicating, anyone shall be reachable Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 AA – Anywhere to Anyone
M-Mobile Needs • When being mobile, humans have special mobile needs: • Most important mobile need is theimmediate need • Also the“save time”and “kill time”needs • 3G services must add value to end-user lives: • 3G services must meet mobile needs Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 M – Mobile Needs
M-Money • 3G services must generate operator incomes: • Fixed tariffs or data generating • End-user price experience is important: • End-users want control of their costs • Price must be well communicated to end-users • End-user price must be correctly matched: • According to the mobile need that is satisfied • Immediateneed probably higher tolerance level than“kill time”need Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 M – Money
T-Terminals • There must be technical support in 3G terminals for the 3G service • Lessons from SMS show that mass-market adoption can take place when 30% is reached in the market or segment Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 T – Terminals
O-3GOut-of-the-box in3G-Style • 3G services will be embraced by end-users in relation to usability: • Easy to use • Good feedback • No or easy installation • 3G services shall take advantage of improved 3G functionalities: • Higher bit rates, QoS, displays in color etc. • 3G services shall be in 3G style: • Compelling and well-designed • Provide a “online and fast bit rate-feeling” Mobile Services for 3G Fredrik Jacobson 2003-09-17 O-3G – Out-of-the-box in 3G-style
