Growing WiMAX Market …expect healthy growth for the evolving mobile WiMAX market, which is seeing strong adoption not only from Tier 2 and 3 carriers, but from Tier 1 nationwide operators……… $9B by 2011 Richard WebbDirecting Analyst, WiMAX, WiFi, & Mobile DevicesInfonetics Research(408) 583-3369richard@infonetics.com
75% of WiMAX operators estimate that over 80% of their subscribers will connect to the WiMAX network from indoor locations*75% of WiMAX operators estimate that over 80% of their subscribers will connect to the WiMAX network from indoor locations* Operators agree that they need to go beyond macrocells A macrocell topology is required at the beginning Different base station configurations needed to meet requirements in a flexible, cost-effective way Customer Usage *Senzi Fili Consulting, Dec. 2007
What Operators Need Competitive last-mile access infrastructure Low cost technology Spectrum efficient technology Simple to install Upgradeable and scalable, pay-as-you-grow Network which is easily maintained Fast time to service Secure network and services Customized frequency ranges and bandwidth Reach underserved markets Provide triple play services and mobile
Compact/Pico Network Layer 2 or Layer 3
Traditional vs. Distributed Network R8 R8 R8 R8 R8
Competitive Advantages • Low Cost, Compact/Pico Base Station • First SoC (System On a Chip) based, Wave 2 Profile on the market • Small configuration • Low power consumption • Low heat dissipation • One sector/ Multi-Sector architecture • Four output power levels – • Limited output (Pico-BST) • Low output – controlled power for unlicensed spectrum regulation • Medium output – standard regulation • Highest output - twice the standard power • All outdoor design – install on poles, walls, street lamps saves operator OPEX/CAPEX • Open Architecture – Compliance to WF NWG Release Profile C • Low initial investment – pay as you grow • Design for interoperability with various Master BST networks
Coverage vs. Capacity cells • Coverage Limited Cell: • The range of the radio link limits the size • Satisfies the needs for small bandwidth from a large number of subscribers • Satisfies the needs for large bandwidth from a small number of subscribers • Can work with a reuse-1 factor • Capacity Limited Cell: • The traffic capacity of the system limits the size • Satisfies the needs for large bandwidth from a large number of subscribers • Usually very Spectrum demanding
A Base Station for Each Cell Type • Pico Base Station • Increase network quality • Increase network capacity • Seamless coverage (fill gaps in existing network) • In-building wireless coverage • Reduced infrastructure investments • Compact Base Station: • Add advantages here • Add advantages here • Add advantages here
Pico Base Station • Pico BST in urban and dense urban areas: • Lower Tx power for lower inter-cell interference-> better signal=better throughput • Lower spectrum use • Low cost- all outdoor: zero installation time • Same traffic capacity as cBST • Compact BST cells for suburban-rural areas: • Maximize spectrum use-> need less cells to cover low density areas • Less infrastructure used-> less masts, less backbone connections • One-sector architecture: can cover specific areas, modular growth Compact Complimentary Deployment
Planning data: • Cover 10 sq. Km of San Juan, Puerto Rico • 10 MHz channels, 3 sectors sites • Environment: Urban • Capacity limited cells- 12 sectors Capacity Limited Case Study
Capacity Limited - Results • Using Macro Base Station : • Need to lower the Tx power in order to lower the interference • Number of channels used: 12 (120 MHz!!) • No flexibility for shadow zone coverage • COST – 4 x 3 sector Macro Base Stations = $400,000 (approx.) • Using Pico Base Station: • Lower inter-cell interference: better signal • Number of channel used: 3 (30 MHz) • Can be installed also in street lamps to cover “shadow” zones • COST – 12 Pico Base Stations = $45,600
Planning data: • Cover 2 small cities • 10 MHz channels, 3 sectors sites • Environment: low density, rural • Traffic requirements – 2 sectors Coverage Limited Case Study
Using Macro Base Station : • Additional sectors not in use • Need to house base station and indoor equipment • Tower placement costs and rentals • COST – 1 x 3 sector Macro Base Stations = $100,000 (approx.) • PLUS – monthly maintenance costs = High OPEX • Using a Compact Base Station: • Install sectors that are needed – no wasted sector • All outdoor design – install anywhere • Can be installed on walls, lamps, street poles • COST – 2 Compact Base Stations = $23,600 • Lower OPEX = immediate monthly savings Coverage Limited - Results
WiNetworks innovative Architecture • Already deploying Mobile Base Station: • Compact, One box, all outdoor • 802.16e Wave 2 (MIMO) • 2x90W, 2x45W, 2x5W • 1.X, 2.X, 3.X GHz bands • IOT with leading ASN GW vendors – R6 Profile C compliant • WiNMS - SNMP Management Server • IOT with CPE’s ODU, IDU, PC Card, USB • Pico-BST and Compact BST use the same SW stack
WiNetworks innovative Architecture: • Full Standard compliance: • 802.16e-2005 • WF Mobile Wave 2 (MIMO) System Profile • NWG R1.1 compliance (Profile C) • SNMP based Management • Integrated GPS • Support 1.X, 2.X and 3.X bands • Indoor or Outdoor • Up to 1024/512 subscribers • TX Power: 5W(pico) through 45/90W(compact) • Low cost • Tower/Wall/Pole Mounting
Win-Max 16e CPEs • WiN5200 – WiMAX Subscriber Unit • 802.16e MIMO (1x2), High Gain flat Antenna • ETH interface to the indoor Home/Office GW • No maintenance, High operator OPEX savings • Supporting 1.X, 2.X and 3.XGHz bands • WiN5600 – WiMAX Self Install Unit • 802.16e MIMO (1x2) • Powerful indoor/outdoor antenna with long reach and strong performance • ETH, VoIP, Wi-Fi • Supporting 1.X, 2.X and 3.XGHz bands • WiN5700 – WiMAX PC Card • Personal broadband to any laptop computer • Automatic, Self-configured, Plug-N-Play • Supports PCMCIA Type II Interface • Supporting 2.X and 3.XGHz bands
