1
2.5G to 3G Migration
  • Critical Success Factors

Wireless Network Trends
  • The wireless networks converge in the core
    network and the terminal.
  • Wireless access adds value to services, and
    users will choose best value connection.
  • Usage goes indoor! More than 70 traffic has
    moved from highway to hallway

  • UMTS and CDMA2000 also have very similar core
    network migration roadmaps.
  • Soft-Switch is the optimum structure for voice
  • IMS is the optimum structure for multimedia
    service
  • SoftSwitch and IMS will coexist for a long time

GSM Market Growth

  • The number of GSM subscribers will exceed 2
    billion by the end of 2007
  • Lower End-to-End cost is the main strength of GSM
    networks
  • MENA is still the fastest growing mobile market
  • Voice and SMS are and will still be the main
    source of revenue for quite a long time

3G, a new engine to improve ARPU
Subscribers (Million)
Number of networks
UMTS subscribers number hit 44.6 million
worldwide by the end of 2005, an increase of 161
on the figure at the end of 2004.

  • Today, there are 108 commercial WCDMA operators
    in 47 countries. The majority are enabling HSDPA
    in their networks as the new baseline for 3G
    globally (www.gsacom.com )
  • Green field UMTS networks are still facing
    relatively high price terminals
  • GSM operators in MENA launch UMTS networks
    focusing on data services for high end users,
    despite the poor take-up of their 2.5G data
    services
  • There is generally a limited amount of money
    available from users to increase the total
    revenues of operators
  • HSDPA availability is currently boosting the 3G
    deployment, allowing a net differentiation
    between 2.5 and 3G services.
  • HSDPA gathers momentum in the MENA, especially in
    the Gulf countries like UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain,
    Oman, etc

8
Migration Opportunities and Challenges
  • How to balance 2G Network Expansion versus New 3G
    Service Launch?
  • How to deploy UMTS step by step ?
  • How to reduce TCO to optimize the revenues of the
    resulting network.

GSM operators should plan to make 3G
an Evolution rather than Migration
9
TCO Saving in Lifecycle
(k EUR)
  • OPEX represents more than half of the total cost
    of ownership.
  • Rental, power consumption, leased lines and human
    resources are major parts of OPEX

TCO reduction is generally Crucial, especially
at this stage of 3G deployment
10
Optimized Migration Plan Shared Core Networks
save CAPEX, OPEX and Improve Quality
  • As a considerable step towards 3G deployment,
    we recommend GSM operators to adopt R4
    Soft-switch architecture whenever they are
  • Deploying a new GSM network for a new license
  • Expanding the core network for an existing GSM
    network
  • Swapping legacy GSM MSC

Huawei Mobile Soft Switch and Packet CN achieve
2G/3G Convergence
11
Optimized Migration Plan New Technologies Reduce
TCO in Node B
  • Making maximum use of advanced Node B
    technologies considerably reduce TCO
  • Integrated Digital PA higher power efficiency
    with lower power consumption
  • Multi Carrier Transceivers software capacity
    expansion
  • Full HSDPA performance lower cost per bit.
  • Open CPRI interface lower industrial chain cost
  • Distributed Node B easier site acquisition,
    installation and transportation

Optimized Migration Plan Go Broadband today with
HSDPA
Peak data rate HSDPA 700
Cost per MB HSDPA 35
HSDPA provides lower cost per bit, clearly
differentiate 3G from 2G services to the end user.
14
Optimized Migration Plan Speed Up Introducing
Attractive 3G based Applications
TV Programs
  • Example Mobile TV Huawei Cell Multimedia
    Broadcast (CMB)
  • All users share a common channel (FACH)
  • Fewer resources occupied but higher revenue for
    operators
  • Low cost and good experience for end users
  • Smooth evolution to MBMS
  • CMB allows a pre-MBMS cost effective solution for
    Mobile TV and other broadcasts.


15
Optimized Migration Plan Cooperation with
suppliers for Affordable and Customized User
Terminals
  • At this stage, it is strongly recommended that
    operators cooperate closely with terminals
    suppliers to provide affordable customized
    handsets.
  • Huawei has focused on designing chipsets for
    Multi-platform solution to reduce the cost of low
    end terminals
  • Cooperate closely with operators for customized
    handsets

Conclusion
  • The trend of telecom industry is evolving from
    Network Based to Customer and Services Based.
  • Despite the competition between UMTS and CDMA2000
    as the two favorite 3G technologies, they do
    share a lot of similarities in their Capabilities
    and Roadmaps.
  • Shared Core Networks for 2G and 3G whether
    Circuit core based on R4 softswitch or Packet
    core - is a major step towards a smooth
    migration, optimizing CAPEX and OPEX as well as
    improving QoS.
  • A set of new advanced technologies in the 3G Node
    Bs considerably help the operators to reduce the
    TCO while improving the overall performance.
  • Hybrid TDM/IP transmission is currently the
    favorite solution to balance the high speed data
    transmission requirements and the cost of
    transmission resources.
  • Huawei strongly encourages operators to
    differentiate their 3G capabilities with
    innovative and attractive applications
    (especially with HSDPA mature availability), and
    to cooperate with handsets suppliers for
    affordable and customized user terminals.
  • Huawei has achieved a remarkable global presence
    and leadership in the mobile industry, witnessed
    by the wide global applications of Huawei
    GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/CDMA2000 1x/DO networks.
