  1. Smart Small-Cell Infrastructures for Rural Broadband Networks Small Cells World Summit 9 - 11 June 2015, London John Tenidis Marketing Director Wireless Network Systems Intracom Telecom

  2. A New Operator, A New Model • Network (NP) and Physical Infrastructure Provider (PIP) established in 2015 • The scope is to implement Rural Broadband • 2 years Greenfield Deployment & 15 years Operation • Covering rural mountainous & island areas of central Greece • Offering Broadband Services • Offers Wholesale Service to Service Providers (SP) • Service Specifications & Business Model Compliant • to Europe 2020 Directives SP SP SP + NP NP NP + PIP

  3. Our obligation • Key Facts: • Service Area: 37,000 Km² • Villages: 1,864 • Population: 185,043 • Households: 63,808 • 51.03% Class-A (30 Mbps) • 48.97% Class-B (8 Mbps) • Rollout starts in 2015

  4. Greek Rural Landscape • Challenges: • Limited Infrastructure • Low per Capita Income • Digital Poverty • Obtain Site Permits • Urgency to Comply to Europe 2020 Directives • Landscape: • Adverse Terrain • Scattered Villages • Clustered Houses • Hard or Costly to reach Here! Sikinos island, Aegean Sea How can Europe 2020 Digital Services reach here?

  5. Rural Small-Cells Toolkit Multi-RAN Spots MW PtMP Backhaul WiFi Hot-Spots MW PtP Backhaul 5.8 GHz Access V-Band/E-Band PtP Mainland Greece The Best Approach to Europe 2020 Objectives

  6. Superior, Localized Digital Experience • Additional Capacity & Coverage • Indoor & Outdoor Connectivity • Stronger Signal, Higher Throughput • Affordable User Equipment Smart Utilization of Small-Cell technologies

  7. Extending the Service Area Small-Cell ----MW/V-Band PtP Fiber PoP Mainland Greece Small-Cells +Smart Backhaul = Effective Service Scalability

  8. Key Performance Figures Fiber PoP • Small-Cells: • 300+ Mbps • 100x Subscribers • Class-A Service (30+ Mbps) • Backhaul: • MW/V-Band • 0.7-1.5 Gbps Ring • <2 Km Range • 99.99% Small-Cells +Smart Backhaul = Europe 2020 Services

  9. The Greek Approach • Deploy on Walls or Poles • Use A/C Power Supply • Zero Ground Footprint • Use Compact Equipment • Rely on Non-expert technicians Versatile Backhaul is a key success factor

  10. Key Backhaul Attributes • Backhaul Toolkit is a Reality • Compact for Rural Deployment • 26/28/32/42 GHz & 60 GHz • Flexible PtP/PtMP/Relay Architecture • Highly Automated (Alignment, Zero touch Provisioning, Dynamic Channel Selection, SON Optimization) • CapEx & OpEx Efficient Technology Enablers for Small-Cell Rural Broadband

  11. SON StreetNode Toolkit • V-Band (60 GHz) Point-to-Point • Self Organizing Network transmission 2) MW (26/28/32/42 GHz) Self Organizing Network transmission ~ Point-to-Point (4096QAM) ~ Point-to-Multipoint (1024QAM) Accelerating Rural Small-Cell Deployment

  12. Reducing Ownership Costs • Strategic Objectives: • Spectrum License Fees • Selecting Unlicensed or Area-Licensed Frequency Bands / Backhaul Solutions • Equipment Costs • Selecting Flat Layer 2 Ethernet Architecture • Reducing Equipment Count (PtMP) • Deployment Costs • Eliminating RF planning • Reducing Installation / Commissioning “Smart” Technology Options will Reduce CapEx

  13. Decreasing Operations Costs • Strategic Objectives: • Optimization • Constant Performance Monitoring • Network Quality Assessment • Automating Optimization • Operation & Maintenance Costs • Eliminate the need for Re-alignment • Restart after a Power Outage • Minimizing Site Visits “Smart” Solutions Minimize the Operation Overheads

  14. Conclusions • Rural landscape posses multiple challenges… • But • Technology and expertise can provide for solutions • Small Cells can implement better coverage and capacity • Backhaul toolkit is a key ingredient to success • Resulting to • Time & Cost is saved, Network Efficiency increases Small Cells for Rural Broadband is the preferable option
