3 Drivers for LTE deployment Market Trend: Next Generation Wireless Broadband 3 Technical Sales Forum May 2008

4 The industry has successfully gained mobile data momentum Smartphone density 32x increase per km 2 by 2015 Internet over mobile 70% of mobile data by 2014 Source: Bell Labs analysis

5 What s BIG now on Internet will be big on Mobile Internet Top Internet Sites Rank Global 1 Google 2 Facebook 3 YouTube 4 Yahoo! 5 Windows Live 6 Baidu 7 Wikipedia 8 Blogger.com 9 QQ.com 10 Twitter Source: Alexa Nov 2010 Most used: Mobile Browsing and /Calendar, Location-Based Services, Shopping, Social Networking and Video Sharing

6 Resulting in massive traffic growth From WNG study on bandwidth consumption Forecast consumption by device type Worldwide Aggregate Mobile Traffic Pbytes/Month 7,000 iphone Blackberry 6,000 5,000 Dongle/tablets Smartphones Feature phones Android Other Air Card 4,000 3,000 30x growth over 5 years! 80%-85% of packet switched calls are originated from smartphones 40% of 3G devices are smartphones 2,000 1, Source: Alcatel-Lucent measurements using 9900 WNG within live networks and Bell Labs analysis

7 New devices, new applications Increase in the diversity of traffic: The Internet of things Increase in the volume of traffic: M2M, Cloud Computing, Video, UGC M2M Cloud Computing Video UGC

8 Global Mobile Broadband Forecast

11 LTE Concept

12 What is LTE? A common evolution path Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the next generation broadband wireless technology for 3GPP and 3GPP2 networks Enabling new applications, lowering cost Peer to peer applications requiring high throughput Online gaming Flat fee trend OFDMA MIMO Flat IP Robust modulation in dense environments OFDMA (DL) / SC-FDMA (UL) Increased spectral efficiency. Simplified Rx design Cheaper UE Scalable - go beyond 5 MHz limitation Increased link capacity Multiple-input, multiple-output UL& DL. Collaborative MIMO (UL). Overcome multi-path interference Flat, scalable Short TTI: 1 ms (2 ms for HSPA). Backhaul based on IP / MPLS transport. Fits with IMS, VoIP, SIP A taste of 4G based on highly efficient technologies * Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access

13 LTE: Compelling performance 65 ms Latency Reduction 50 ms 50 ms Low latency enables fast channel adaptation therefore allowing high speed applications HSPA HSPA+ WiMAX Higher Peak throughput (Mbps) 10 ms LTE 326 DL HD TV User created content Multi-screen Gaming 173 DL More 5 UL 14 DL HSPA (5MHz) 11 UL HSPA+ (5MHz) 42 DL 9 UL 36 DL WiMAX (10MHz) 55 UL LTE MIMO 2x2 (20MHz) 86 UL LTE MIMO 4x4 (20MHz) High peak throughput enables rich content applications over LTE

14 LTE Transforms Wireless Access and Core Networks to All-IP 2G/3G controller LTE End-to-end IP (All-IP) Clear delineation of control plane and data plane Simplified architecture: flat-ip architecture with a single core

15 QoS evolution 2G Conversational Streaming 3G Interactive Background QoS evolution From: 4 classes in UMTS and CDMA To: 9 classes (QCI) in LTE

16 LTE end-to-end solution benefits Devices IOT and certification enb Backhaul Universal Management (5620 SAM) MME S Gateway P Gateway IMS Apps / Enablement Coordinated R&D product life cycle End-to-end performance management Network Level Testing Converged OAM New business models and TCO Common architecture and requirements Joint release planning Service provider solution needs taken into account throughout life cycle Efficient resource management Enhanced user QoE Improved end-to-end latency and load management Greater network visibility SON Delivery of fully tested solution Capacity planning and network sizing Significant reduction in execution risk Instrument-rich network WNG, PCMD Single EMS (SAM 5620) SON Fewer northbound interfaces per OSS Common IT functions Simplified processes Faster problem resolution Accelerated time to-market New business models and AE Rich ecosystem Lower churn Lower CAPEX, OPEX *Additional savings from backhaul/transport networks, High Leverage Network, converged RAN not included in this case Alcatel-Lucent pre-integrated LTE solutions minimize TCO and maximize revenues Massively Scalable & Efficient Networks Innovative Business models Field-proven Transformation Services
