Review of WiFi technologies 802.11b/g/n
802.11b is on its way to the past!
Most modern Wi-Fi devices operating at 2.4GHz support
802.11g/n (OFDM), 802.11b (CCK) & 802.11 (DSSS) rates
The problem is that the low rates supported by CCK and
DSSS are incredibly wasteful of spectrum resources
Some in the industry would like to ban completely the use of
CCK and DSSS, but a more likely scenario is that it is made
optional over a period of time & allowed to go gracefully

Review of WiFi technologies 802.11a/n/ac
WLAN 802.11 a/n: 5 GHz; 20, 40 MHz; rate from 54 Mbit/s to 600
Mbit/s)
802.11ac, the next generation of Wi-Fi is here:
Similar to 802.11n but better
Voice/video/data for consumer/enterprise
Evolutionary extension of 802.11n for 5GHz
Plus MU-MIMO & vehicle for standardised Suite-B
Similar range to 802.11n
Faster than 802.11n – realistically up to ~2.5 Gb/s
Wider bandwidth options in 11ac: 80MHz, 160MHz, and 80+80MHz
Multi-user MIMO in 802.11ac sends multiple frames to multiple
receivers

Review of WiFi technologies –
802.11ad
WLAN 802.11 ad: use of 60GHz, very high rate
( >1Gb/s) , beam formed, room area networking:
About 7 GHz of spectrum available (varies by country)
Can go very fast even with only one RF chain
Potential for lower cost and lower energy per bit
5mm wavelength and multiple (<64) antennas can
beamform for more range & less interference
Room area networking : easily blocked by humans,
whiteboards, books, wall & concrete
Potential applications : wireless docking , wireless
peripherals, Sync’n’go, HDMI replacement , WLAN
applications so that our workplace of the future is wire free
(except maybe the power cable)

Review of WiFi technologies –
802.11af
802.11af defines operations in TV White Space bands (the
repacking of TV bands in many countries has resulted in
opportunity for new unlicensed spectrum:
New rules are being designed to protect existing users from interference from
unlicensed devices (e.g. digital TV and wireless microphones)
Uses a database to avoid interfering with primary users: geolocation data base
contains info about protected users; it will be able to authorise the use of a
channel at a particular time, location & power for unlicensed operation)
Spectrum : 470-698 MHz (UHF), VHF varies by country
Channel width: 6, 7, 8 MHz (vs 20/40 MHz in 802.11n), scaled to TV channel
bandwidths
Rate: Less than traditional 802.11 due to narrow channels
Range : More (3.5x) than traditional 802.11 due to superior propagation of TVWS
Regulations are not yet in place in most/all countries
Likely some of today’s TVWS will be allocated to cellular In Europe, more is being
used for cellular and DTTV than expected

Mobile handsets available with combination of GSM 900/DCS 1800/
UMTS 900(FDD VIII)/UMTS 2100(FDD I)/LTE 900(FDD VIII)/LTE 1800(FDD III)/
LTE 2100(FDD I)/LTE2600(FDD VII) frequencies
Europe has seen a significant technology shift in recent years, with the proportion
of 3G handsets increasing sharply. From around a fifth of total handsets in 2008,
3G devices now account for over half of all devices in Europe, a figure that we
expect to peak at almost 61% in 2015.
LTE devices today represent only a small proportion of devices, at just 0.3% at the
end of 2012.
LTE network coverage slowly improves and the price of 4G devices declines
further, LTE should account for 20% of total devices by 2017.

Review of mobile technologies (3)
Rolling out mobile broadband in Europe using the 800MHz band will make a
significant contribution to economic growth
BCG suggests it could add €119B to EU GDP in the period out to 2020 as well as
contributing a further €23B to public funding during this period.
The GDP impact comes from a range of factors:
the creation of new business activities
improved productivity for businesses accessing and using the internet
the revenues and network investment from the mobile operators themselves.
Additional challenges for countries who delay the release of spectrum to cause
interference in neighboring countries.
Benefits will be substantially reduced if the countries with derogations delay
releasing this spectrum until 2017, which could reduce:
the overall GDP benefit in 2020 by €16B (a 13% reduction compared to the base
case) and the tax benefit by €3B.
the number of new jobs created would fall by 67,000 and the number of number
of new businesses by 26,000

More Powerful Smartphones
The European mobile industry is one of the most successful in the
world and has a strong track record in innovation and developing
new services.
Smartphones are becoming far more powerful than the desktops
of just a few years ago.
Competition and price cuts have increased the affordability of
mobile services for consumers, leading to penetration rates in
terms of both unique subscribers and smartphones that are
amongst the highest in the world.
EU institutions and the mobile industry have a common agenda
namely building a Connected Europe which:
Encourages investment in mobile connectivity
Enables innovation in new content and services
Builds consumer confidence in mobile services and applications

More advanced computing capability and connectivity, typically include
the features of a computer with those of another popular consumer
device, such as a personal digital assistant (PDA), a media player, a digital
camera, direct Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, SRD (5725-5875 MHz) and/or a GPS
navigation unit
Later smartphones include all of those plus the features of a touchscreen
computer, including web browsing, 3rd-party apps, motion sensors and
mobile payment
Currently, about 80% of handset sales worldwide are for devices driven
by Google‘s Android and Apple‘s iOS mobile operating systems

Mobile services and applications (3)
”Mobile payments” is a broad concept and it can refer to
different things including:
premium SMS based transactional payments
direct mobile billing
Mobile web payments (WAP)
contactless payments (Near Field Communication –NFC payments)
One of the key enablers of mCommerce is SIM-enabled Near
Field Communications:
(NFC) - a contactless radio technology that can transmit data between two
devices within a few centimetres of each other. NFC 13,56 MHz chips are now
being embedded into mobile phones, enabling an array of new digital services
NFC mobile services deployed in a number of French cities (Nice, Strasbourg)
Swedish mobile operators Telia, Tele2, Telenor and Three have launched
“WyWallet”

Impact of new legislation Directive 2014/53/EU
Facilitate access to market
2014/53/EU: Radio Equipment Directive (RED):
Member states no longer required to notify interfaces which:
a) Are covered by a Commission Decision under 676/2002/EC (Radio
Spectrum Decision), or
b) Correspond to a class of equivalent interfaces that can be used anywhere
in the Union (specified via implementing act)
Manufacturers no longer required to inform Member State before
placing on the market equipment that uses non-harmonised spectrum
Manufacturer to check in EFIS if frequencies are available
Frequency & power to be included in user instructions
No ‘Alert symbol’
Requirements to be invoked as necessary: ....“can only load compliant
software”
12th Conference Regulatory Activity in Electronic Communications Sector, Budva, Montenegro, September 2014.
20
Directive 2014/53/EU Universal Charger
Directive includes specific requirements for Universal
Charger as the essential requirements
In particular, mobile phones that are made available on the
market should be compatible with a common charger
Interoperability between radio equipment and accessories
such as chargers simplifies the use of radio equipment and
reduces unnecessary waste and costs
A renewed effort to develop a common charger for
particular categories or classes of radio equipment is
necessary, in particular for the benefit of consumers and
other end-users
12th Conference Regulatory Activity in Electronic Communications Sector, Budva, Montenegro, September 2014.
21
Directive 2014/53/EU- Radio receiver
and antenna requirements (1)
Increased emphasis on efficient use of spectrum, in
particular by improving radio receiver requirements
Clear scope (but still some boundaries: purpose of spectrum
use)
Technical support relating to performance of antennas of
mobile phones
Sensitivity varies significantly between phone models
Higher Performance antennas requirements (B2B)
Need to ensure it will not increase SAR exposure (vulnerable
consumers)
12th Conference Regulatory Activity in Electronic Communications Sector, Budva, Montenegro, September 2014.
22
Directive 2014/53/EU- Radio receiver
and antenna requirements (2)
Revision of Harmonised Standards to provide presumption of
conformity with R&TTE (RED) to ensure enhanced receiver
requirements
A labelling scheme appeared more problematic
There was no clear consensus whether such a label would be
well understood by consumers, although certain Member
States considered that such a scheme would be important to
improve transparency for consumers
Other member states pointed to network coverage as being a
strong contributing factor to problems experienced by users,
and emphasised the work undertaken in CEPT to harmonise
the harmonisation of methods to assess licensing conditions
for coverage

State of play in the Republic of Serbia (1)
In total revenues in the
electronic communications in the
RoS in 2013, the largest share in
total income has been realized
from the provision of mobile
telephony services in the
amount of 878 million EUR,
which represents 57% of total
revenue.
The largest share in terms of
investments in the telecom
market in SEE went once again to
mobile telephony with 60.4%.
