According to Frost & Sullivan, a new generation LTE technology will soon become the standard
According to consulting company Frost & Sullivan, despite the fact that many mobile operators consider standard LTE advanced through the development of their networks and some of the key WiMAX Forum members have changed their attitude towards mobile WiMAX, LTE standard implementation will not be easy, analysts believe the international consulting company Frost & Sullivan.
As shown by a recent study broadband wireless Internet access in Europe: the struggle LTE and mobile WiMAX, the main purpose of the deployment of LTE networks is the ability to achieve high speed data transmission in mobile networks. This task is also solved and the technology of mobile WiMAX.
In Western Europe only in the last year the average amount of Internet traffic at the user's mobile Internet access has increased in 6-14 times. This is due to the introduction of tariffs for unlimited Internet access to cellular communication networks and the availability of high-speed mobile broadband based on HSDPA / HSPA. In 2008, on average, users in Western Europe consumed approximately 5GB in a month.
And while Internet traffic has grown at times, the income of mobile operators have stabilized. For the first time, operators observe divergent growth dynamics of income and the amount of traffic as a result of increasing consumption of Internet traffic at a fixed monthly fee.
In Western Europe, UMTS and HSPA technology is already widely exploited, thereby identifying some advantages over standard LTE WiMAX. Analysts Frost & Sullivan believes that the next stage of development of these technologies becomes standard LTE, which will reduce the cost of services, optimize the use of radio frequency resource.
According to the forecasts of Frost & Sullivan, at the end of 2013 the number of 3G LTE subscribers in Western Europe will reach about 22.4 million and earnings close to 9.7 billion euros.
Nevertheless, the widespread introduction of LTE inhibits a number of problems, no solutions are among them a shortage of frequency spectrum, the need to increase capacity backbone networks, the lack of available line of subscriber terminals. With these problems previously encountered and technology WiMAX. That is why mobile operators while considering only the launch of the pilot zones.
Currently, mobile operators in Western Europe are considering a point-to-point channels for transmission of Internet traffic and transport network. Alternatively, some of them consider the minimization of capital costs to develop the transport network through the transmission of user traffic using femtosot. However, the use of femtosot network requires careful planning to avoid interference with makroseti femtosotami.
According to Director of Business Development in Russia and CIS Frost & Sullivan Tatiana Tolmachevo, LTE prospects in Russia, compared with a similar process in Western Europe more vague. WiMAX technology in Russia has found strong support among key market players. Several large companies, such as Comstar UTS, Sinterra, Start Telecom, Prestige, Skartel already invested enough funds for the development of WiMAX-networks. Cautious in their plans and Russian operators of cellular communication. Convincing the Russian telecommunication community the benefits of LTE over WiMAX is not easy.
