Primero voz, luego datos primero personas, luego cosas

Con servicios que evolucionan
Cada vez se mejoran las interfaces de usuario y la tecnologa permite que toda la
inteligencia este en la nube

El trfico crece da a da
El trfico mvil se multiplicar por 26 en los prximos 4 aos, motivado por los

Extremely well fit for coverage in rural areas (large cells radius) and urban areas (powerful in-building signals
penetration). Several countries* incl. Colombia, India, Indonesia have highlighted the use of APT-700MHz as a
solution for the digital divide in the countryside (similar to Germany LTE strategy since 2010 in using
DD800MHz)

FDD Radio Frame Structure
Concept of Resource Block:
Time-frequency domain resources. The minimum unit for schedule is RB (Resource

Block), which compose of RE (Resource Element)
2-dimension structure: symbol in time domain and subcarrier in frequency domain
One RB consists of 1 slot and 12 consecutive subcarriers under Normal CP
configuration

Cyclic Prefix
CP Configuration
CP is applied to eliminate ISI of OFDM :
CP length is related with multi-path delay. Normal CP

can fulfill the requirement of common scenarios.
Extended CP is for long multi-path delay scenario.
Longer CP, means higher overhead.

Coverage Comparison b/w HSPA+ and LTE
LTE has better coverage than HSUPA and R99

under the same data rate
Loading increase will have more significant impact

on UMTS coverage especially under high traffic
loading.
About 13% reduction in UMTS cell radius when

loading increases from 50% to 70%
LTE is more robust against loading and cell

radius reduction is only around 2.5% when
loading increases from 50% to 70%

Before launching LTE, operators face a number of questions of strategic nature

Key Questions
Goals
Technology
Synergies with other business
Pricing
Competitive
Financial
Network
Do I need LTE or can I continue investing in HSPA and

jump straight to 5G ?
What are the benefits of LTE for my business ?

Should I focus on increasing revenues, reducing costs or
both ?
How do I measure the RoI of LTE ?
Is there a way to differentiate my LTE service? Compared to
3G ? Compared to WiFi ? Compared to the competition ?
How much coverage do I need? How much capacity &
where? How can I lower my network cost per bit?
What is the best deployment scenario ? How to maximise
my spectrum holdings ?
The answers to those questions will help operators allocate resources, derive the right marketing strategy
and measure the success of LTE in the future.

Market service creation strategy for 4G LTE service development

structure and marketing proposition
1. At the early stage of LTE market introduction, pricing propositions, device strategy, messaging, promotion and service
availability are more important than new services
2. Although premium pricing for new services has not been effective, the higher the adoption of LTE and LTE enabled smart
devices, the higher the data consumption and the more mobile broadband savvy the market
3. We believe that 4G LTE has and will further enable and promote the adoption of new and diversified services at various
time tables depending on market maturity
4. We believe the following considerations need to be included in service design
Your customer friends are your friends
Use devices as platforms
Without (some of) them you would

not have many broadband
customers.
Use OTTs and PT apps to

promote smart devices
The strategy to use the
smartphone as a platform

Pricing of LTE has drawn a lot of attention, but the focus has been on
price premiums and flat-rates rather than on the additional value of LTE

Value Based Pricing uses

multiple factors to extract
value from different
segments
Changing basic parameters
of a tariff plan (price, data
allowance) can be easily
copied by competitors.
Value Based Pricing enables
more sustainable
differentiation and revenue
improvement.
Although price premiums have been blamed for the lower adoption of LTE in Europe, they are not
necessarily wrong if the additional value of LTE is clearly promoted and delivered

LTE Pricing practices are very diverse, and reflect regional and country
differences in technology maturity, competitivity and economic situation

Generally, operators in Europe charge premiums that vary from 10 to 95%.

Italy and Portugal the lowest.

Most countries are pricing LTE based on speed and volume, very few have
uncapped their data plans. There are few examples of Smart Pricing.
US
Verizon Wireless and AT&T have priced LTE at no
premium compared to 3G.
They have changed their tariff structure to
introduce shared plans and to discontinue

unlimited data plans.
Japan
NTT DoCoMo charged a premium for LTE, but time limited

discounts made LTE plans cheaper than 3G plans

Video content has been a key driver of LTE for SKT

Background:
For its launch of LTE services, SK Telecom announced that it would offer innovative services,
including high-quality video on all its LTE smartphones.
Video Strategy:
Support by all LTE handsets available during the first 3 months of launch
(from Samsung, LG, Pantech and HTC)
More than 13.000 HD videos available at launch through T-Store and 8.000
movies available on N-screen service. High Value customers receive a
monthly credit to download content.
Results:
SK Telecom objective at launch was to sign up 500K LTE subscribers by end of 2011 (has achieved 575K) and
LTE subscribers by end of 2012 (has achieved 6.3M).
3 months after the launch of its premium content offer, more than 1 million customers generated 6 million
downloads.

Case study

Case study: How Verizon turned an unfavorable situation to its benefit

Background
In view of strong competition and AT&Ts leadership in the smart-phone market, Verizon was compelled to take a strong first
mover position in LTE and invest heavily in the network due to its competitive market positioning. Verizon was at a
disadvantage compared with AT&Ts technical (spectral) and market leadership. Verizons CDMA EV-DO ecosystem declining
and there was no easy migration to LTE in sight. In that position, Verizon saw a huge opportunity
Spectrum:
Solution:
700MHz
2 x 10MHz
Surprised everyone and certainly AT&T

when it launched 10 months ahead of
schedule in Dec 2012
Heavy focus on nationwide coverage
At Aug 2012, 371 cites covered, 230
million people, 75% of total population
Focus on coverage, customer education
and strong marketing on network
performance
1710-1750MHz,
2110-2155MHz
Objective
To become the US leader in LTE subscribers. Verizon became the world leader in
terms of LTE customers

Verizons positioning (r)evolution
LIFE IS BETTER IN
REAL TIME
Initial market positioning focused on speed and technology

leadership and educating customers about the experience
improvement offered by LTE:
Focus on speed
Social video campaign
Customer education content but with a tech/geek

emphasis
Heavy use of 4G and LTE emphasising technology

leadership in very early adopter segments

AMERICAS LARGEST 4G LTE

NETWORK
2013
Current market positioning has moved beyond price and gigabytes

shifting the emphasis to service experience.
Three pronged marketing approach speed, coverage and devices:
Experience expressed in terms of applications rather than

the technology.
LTE network coverage in 480 cities available to 274m

people.
21 smartphones, seven tablets, two MiFi routers and two

USB modems. Launched eight new phones and three tablets
in 4Q12.
