Early Leader in Connected Ecosystem Race: Apple, Google or Microsoft?

In my previous post we identified the possible top three tech giants which will drive the top three connected ecosystems and the related tribes. So lets get down to the basics and first identify what are the different components in this value chain and how these are contributing to the overall ecosystem. Furthermore, we will also map these links against the current potential ecosystem leaders and understand where these companies stand:

Should AT&T Deploy HSPA+ Or Jump To LTE ?

With Verizon Wireless, Metro PCS, Sprint and T-Mobile quite clear with their NGN roadmap, all eyes are glued on to AT&T on its NGN roadmap.The case here is whether the big blue operator should roll out HSPA+ or jump directly to LTE or even both.

2.6 GHz Spectrum & the Next Generation Mobile Broadband Networks

The licensing of the 2.6 GHz band will be critical to unlocking the benefits of global scale economies in the Mobile Broadband market. The outcome of 2.6GHz allocation will have far-reaching consequences for how the adoption dynamics of WiMAX and 3GPP (such as HSPA and, in future, LTE) will play out in this region since 2.6 GHz is the first arena where the two proponents will be battling each other in the same area of spectrum.So let’s jump in discussing and analyzing about the 2.6GHz band its importance, what’s in store and bulleting the future of mobile broadband.

Femtocells & Relays in Advanced Wireless Networks

Consumer demand for ubiquitous service access has become a key determinant in the selection of one provider over another. In addition, both consumers and operators are pursuing more sophisticated, bandwidth-hungry services. And, finally, the roll out of spread spectrum 3G/4G networks has introduced a technology that compounds the challenges of providing in-building coverage. Femtocells & Relays will solve this problem and extend the broadband’s coverage to indoors.

HSPA, EVDO, WiMax then LTE but what about the mobile backhaul??

Over the next few years, “user experience” will still continue to rely on 3G (and in some regions on 2G) technology.But for the mobile operator, LTE/WiMax is already part of the game plan. Operators have to learn the technology, and its impact on their networks, applications and service offering. Though, Service providers are seeking revenue and profit growth through new differentiated packet-based services. Many of these services, such as mobile Internet and mobile TV, require high bandwidth—and the current backhaul infrastructure is not optimized for handling such traffic. Hence, providers have to add backhaul capacity while keeping operational costs under control, a situation that is forcing carriers to migrate their access and core networks to the new 3G and 4G infrastructure. The point is which solution is the best, whether T1 or microwave, fiber or hybrid…lets check which serves the best cost, throughput and deployment advantage..
