4G Trends: Devices• Early deployments (2006-2008) dominated by

fixed broadband CPE; some netbooks

4G Trends: Devices• Now: Device ‘mix’ is shifting toward mobile

broadband devices, netbooks and mass-market multi-mode handsets

4G Trends: Devices• Future: More mass-market handsets, plus MIDs

and other CE devices, and the emergence of M2M applications

Data Usage Explosion: 4G will Accelerate Usage

• By 2014, the total yearly mobile data traffic in the U.S. is expected to grow from 138 Petabytes (PB) to 40 Exabyte (EB) or 40 Million Terabytes (TB), or by 300 times (Source: Chetan Sharma Consulting, 2009).

Q&A

Q&A• Does 4G just mean more bandwidth – or what more does it bring to the horizon• Device mix expectations for LTE? Timing?• Are the software platforms of today capable of handling 4G networks• Are there significant performance differences at the user level between WiMAX

and LTE ?• What triggered or enabled the emergence of handsets as a volume driver for

WiMAX this year?• What is it going to take to get even more innovative, compelling products to

integrate WiMAX (or LTE) connectivity?• What are the inhibitors to 4G technology adoption in the consumer space? M2M

(and what are the applications for 4G in M2M?• How will 4G affect data usage business models?• VoIP on 4G Mobile (today is mainly CPE)• What about multi-mode devices: Are there any technology issues with

2G/3G/4G/WiFi devices? • Key predictions for 2011?

• Operators:– CLWR is WiMAX today; can you comment on

the recent filings to “test” LTE?• Devices– What new capabilities can we look forward

to?• Components– What technology capabilities are not being

utilized now?
