‘Few authorities know what they want and with tightening budgets and a drive for increased efficiencies few have the resource to investigate the possibilities or have the capital to invest .

Concepts need to be proven and then ROI and value demonstrated to investors and clients ………… prove the concept and gain and confidence of partners, clients and investors

Recent papers suggest the industry will be worth £270bn by 2025 with £50bn associated with change to LED and CMS.

Mayflower’s networks include 300,000 installations across the UK with over 30 local authorities …….. 350 Million street lights across the globe by 2025 ………. Plenty of opportunity ……..

…interesting and exciting times ahead

Cellular connectivity in Machine Type Communication: too late or still in time?

Denis Bidinost - CEO

Challenges, shortcomings

• Long battery life (>10yrs, 15yrs?)• Low device cost ($8 -> $5 -> $2)• Low deployment cost (network cost, provisioning)• Extended coverage (MCL 15-20dB better than GSM)• Support for a massive number of devices

Cellular IoT -> NB-IoT

• NB-IoT is the result of 3GPP focus on IoT• 20dB improvement on GPRS (MCL >164dB)• Massive number of devices (>52k within a cell site sector)• Ultra low cost• 10 yrs on 5Wh – in all coverage conditions• Co-existence and impact

• GERAN study item on IoT (clean slate)• Proposals in TR 45.820 (Aug’15):

• EC-GSM (20dB @23dBm)• NB-cIoT• NB-LTE

In GERAN#62, a study item on “Cellular System Support for Ultra Low Complexity and Low Throughput Internet of Things” was approved in GP-140421. The aim was to study both the possibility of evolving current GERAN system and the design of a new access system towards low complexity and low throughput radio access technology to address the requirements of cellular internet of things. The objectives of the study were: improved indoor coverage, support for massive number of low throughput devices, low delay sensitivity, ultra-low device cost, low device power consumption and (optimised) network architecture.

What needs to change

• NB-IoT Forum approach• Verification and validation costs will have major impact on

device cost • IoT is a culture change for cellular industry…

• It’s taken time but it WILL happen…22©2016 NextG-Com. All rights reserved
