[WISPA] 3.65 GHz Coalition to approach FCC for rule changes
To list members: Yesterday, Redline hosted a conference call with 15 operator participants to kick off a coalition of operators who have deployed or plan to deploy broadband wireless systems in the 3.65 GHz band in the US, with the goal to discuss the current license exempt rules, some of the coexistence issues being experienced in the field, suggestions for improvements/resolution, and the necessary steps to influence change within the FCC. I encourage any interested operators (or vendors) to contact Keith Doucet, Redline's VP Customer Advocacy (kdou...@redlinecommunications.com or +1.905.479.8344 x2298). Keith has participated in the rule setting for the 3.65 GHz band in Canada and has extensive experience in working with regulators internationally. Keith plans on hosting a follow-up call next week on this topic. Thanks, Kevin Redline Communications Inc.

Mike, We have been working with the FCC team for the past year on a mechanism that has already been accepted by Industry Canada for the new 3.65 GHz band opening up this winter (entire 50 MHz). It seems to us that the upper 25 MHz may never be opened up; this is a key action item for the committee.

[WISPA] Gartner predicts new digital divide - High-speed broadband to create communities of haves and have nots
Gartner predicts new digital divide High-speed broadband to create communities of haves and have nots Ian Williams V3.co.uk, 09 Sep 2009 - Growth in localised, high-speed residential broadband services is beginning to open a new chasm between urban and rural areas in terms of internet access, according to new findings from Gartner. The analyst firm's Emerging Technology Analysis: Ultra-High-Speed Residential Broadband Internet, Global Consumer Services report predicts that a new digital divide will have emerged within three to five years between those able to access residential broadband speeds of 50Mbit/s or higher and those limited to basic access speeds. AdvertisementThis is despite efforts such as the UK government's Digital Britain project, which aims to provide a basic broadband service to everyone who wants it. Ultra broadband will exacerbate the digital divide among different world regions, as well as within countries, said Fernando Elizalde, principal research analyst at Gartner. Governments in countries that lag behind in the deployment of ultra broadband will come under increasing pressure to use public funds to upgrade broadband infrastructure to avoid falling behind. Elizalde explained that the need to acquire new customers and retain existing ones will see providers using headline speeds to help differentiate their services from the competition. From a consumer perspective the growing use of high bandwidth applications such as downloading or live streaming of movies and television, as well as the distribution of user-generated content through email, social networking sites and video-sharing sites, will be a key driver, according to the report. The demand for high-speed broadband is not limited to the entertainment sector, however. The report noted that e-government initiatives such as telemedicine and teaching, and business cases such as hosted services and telepresence, will all involve high levels of bandwidth use. Elizalde also highlighted several barriers that may hinder adoption. From a financial standpoint, many people may shun super-fast connections if they are too expensive and fail to offer sufficient value. The huge infrastructure investment required to roll out this level of service to the majority of the population, meanwhile, poses a financial and logistical challenge as it will often require large amounts of rewiring right up to the building. This is particularly daunting given the steady development of alternative mobile broadband technologies, such as Long Term Evolution. Despite these challenges, ultra broadband will happen and application developers should use the opportunity offered by the early adopter markets of Japan and South Korea to carry out live testing of new applications and innovations before it becomes mainstream globally, concluded Elizalde. Operators must position faster broadband speeds as a premium service to avoid commoditisation of ultra broadband, and strike a balance between their need to charge more for faster broadband and consumer willingness to pay for the extra speed.

If they're out in the middle of nowhere, what's better - dial-up out that way or that meesly 1 mbps? I really wish we had a new term for broadband or high speed Internet access. Think about it - DSL, cable, WISPs, Satellite, HSPA/etc aircards. They're all broadband, but is the experience similar? DSL - minimal bandwidth maximum throughput, but no real problems Cable - some cities are 50 mbps, other places are 2 mbps. Around here cable is useless during the vacation times with mere 2 or 4 mbps connections! (kids get off school and AIM down the OC3). Perhaps all areas aren't oversubscribed to the masses, but it certainly is here. I can't imagine what happens when the 50 meg kids start torrenting during vacations - two of them fills an entire OC3!!! WISPs - you get what you pay for, perhaps more? I would rather have 512kbps and get 512kbps on low latency (better for TCP/IP) then have a 2 mbps circuit Satellite - Really? High-speed? I choose dial-up over this. How many WISPs here have had a customer go from Hughesnet or Wildblue to your service and gone wee doggy that there innernet is fast (or comparable). I had two instances just last Friday. HSPA - I have it on my laptop. It's $60/mo. Works when I'm in a city, which is nice if I'm vacationing across town or in a park near a city (PowerCode salesguy had it, worked well in an Indianapolis hotel). Out in the boonies where my customers are? If it does work, it is ridiculously slow - and I'm using SSH and mstsc for comparison. Web is useless out in the boonies. Note - I find it very surprising that Wildblue didn't want their satellite back. I thought all satellite companies would want their gear due to the cost.

[WISPA] Metered Wideband
are telling us that we need to have channel-bonded upstream available, Draper says, noting that consumption requirements (upstream and downstream) on the Rogers cable network are growing 4 percent each month. 'N' gateway standard with Docsis 3.0 Rather than starting off with standalone wideband modems, Rogers is kicking off its deployment by standardizing on a cable modem gateway from SMC Networks Inc.http://www.lightreading.com/complink_redirect.asp?vl_id=5060 that bakes in 802.11n. The key reason: The overwhelming number of customers we talk to about these [Docsis 3.0] service levels say having WiFi enabled is an absolute must.

Re: [WISPA] WE HAVE NOFA
Tom, The 10 points can be earned with a 3.65 GHz WiMAX product like the RedMAX 100UX and SU-O combination. You would be able to offer a service that was say 8 Mbps down / 2 Mbps up inside a 7 MHz channel easily. Obviously, the RedACCESS AN-80i PMP with 20 MHz channels would allow you to offer even higher rate services: say 24 Mbps down, 12 Mbps up and clearly offer 'true' broadband. Best regards, Kevin -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Tom DeReggi Sent: Friday, July 03, 2009 5:30 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] WE HAVE NOFA Yeah, good point, and disappointing. But the problem with having comparative requirments for price and speed is that providers do not just have ONE offering. For example, If someone offered 2 plans: 20mbps for $1000/mon and 1mbps for $19/mon, they could claim that they should get points for... 1) offering super low pricing, and 2) super high speeds. Are the rules written to really require that the super high speeds are sold at the super low prices? Or how many subs they can serve with either of the plans? And does it lock the party into it, after the grant term? And is up+down meaning the in agreegate capacity combination adding Up to Down , so a 10mbps HDX service qualifies for 10mbps? And does it specificy over-the-air raw versus real-throughput speed? A 802.11b radio can actually be called a 11mbps service, right? What the grant does is that it incourages deceptive and intentionally misleading marketing, even though it would still be true. I think it may force WISPs to offer two product lines. The BTOP special might be an oversubscribed 10mbps plan, with small print that the rate speciafies over-the-air, and then you have another plan, that more realistic represents real throughput speeds. Anyways WISPs will miss getting the full 20 points, but they aught to be able to get the 10 points for selling 10mbps. Will an applicant lose points for offering both 10mbps and 3 mbps plans?

The worst thing I saw about it was 3G cellular service appears to disqualify an area from being eligible for funding, based on definition of underserved. An area is eligible for underserved if it does not have a provider offering over 3mbps down stream. However, without conditions for upload, or mandating average, or considering wired only, 3G kills us because 3G is spec'd at 3.1 peak download.

[WISPA] Clearwire Uses Gov't Grants for Rural WiMAX
Clearwire Uses Gov't Grants for Rural WiMAX http://telecompetitor.com/node/1221 29 Apr, 2009 The city of Milledgeville, Georgia http://www.google.com/url?sa=tsource=webct=rescd=1url=http%3A%2F%2F maps.google.com%2Fmaps%3Foe%3Dutf-8%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aoffici al%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26q%3DMilledgeville%26um%3D1%26ie%3DUTF-8%26spli t%3D0%26gl%3Dus%26ei%3DQWP4SeCdItPJtgfC4Z3tDw%26sa%3DX%26oi%3Dgeocode_re sult%26ct%3Dtitle%26resnum%3D1ei=QWP4SeCdItPJtgfC4Z3tDwusg=AFQjCNFnvgS BPldPji_X7Co7Rajd1tcUKwsig2=8I4dErW8NBLjy8sswh7z-Q may be a revealing case study of how broadband stimulus http://telecompetitor.com/taxonomy/term/630 grants may impact rural WiMAX, and may also hint at Clearwire's potential broadband stimulus grant strategy. Milledgeville is a city of approximately 12,000 (not counting college students) and is located about 50 miles northeast of Macon, Georgia. Clearwire http://www.clearwire.com is taking advantage of an $862,000 state grant to deploy their WiMAX service in Milledgeville, with a projected launch date of October 2009. Milledgeville city planner Russell Thompson tells macon.com http://www.macon.com/198/story/698547.html that Basically, [Clearwire] wouldn't be doing business in Milledgeville unless there were incentives because the population is just not that large. Read More ... http://telecompetitor.com/node/1221 Considering that the sheer number of cities and towns across the U.S. that resemble Milledgeville numbers in the thousands and the pending billions of stimulus grant funds that are soon to be available, one could certainly draw a bullish conclusion about the prospects of rural WiMAX. Of course wireline telco and cable operators will argue that only FTTH and HFC networks make sense for a prudent long term broadband strategy. But if recent events, including the partnership of NRTC and DigitalBridge Communications http://telecompetitor.com/node/1220 , and historical funding of broadband wireless projects by the Rural Utilities Service http://www.usda.gov/rus/telecom/index.htm are any indication, WiMAX may indeed have a significant rural presence when it's all said and done. Will Clearwire play a bigger role in this potential scenario? They've been somewhat quiet about their broadband stimulus intentions and they're quite busy executing their metro market strategy. But they heavily reference the Milledgeville case in their public comments for the broadband stimulus program http://www.ntia.doc.gov/broadbandgrants/comments/7321.pdf , stating the Milledgeville project shows that communities that are plagued by low-income, high unemployment and geographic isolation are likely to reap significant benefits when access to next generation mobile broadband is coupled with a plan to enhance public safety, education and job training/creation opportunities. Almost music to regulator's ears. Since Milledgeville currently has broadband from dual providers, namely Charter and Windstream, Clearwire is also inserting it into the 'unserved/underserved' debate http://telecompetitor.com/node/1104 . Wireless providers argue that the absence of broadband wireless should qualify projects for broadband grant funding, regardless of what wireline broadband options are available. Fixed and mobile broadband are two separate services serving different constituents targeted by the grant programs. Because mobile wireless broadband offers important capabilities that fixed services lack - such as the ability to provide Milledgeville's police officers with real time access to crime databases while on patrol and the ability for university students to access educational resources wherever they are - NTIA should separately assess whether an area or population is 'unserved' or 'underserved' with regard to the availability of both fixed wireline/wireless and mobile wireless. Similarly, RUS should consider an area without mobile broadband access as lacking sufficient 'high speed broadband service to facilitate rural economic development,' says Clearwire in their comments. After reviewing this, you get a sense of the gravity of what's at stake. Should the broadband stimulus rules favor Clearwire's position, it may well create a firestorm of activity with WiMAX and other wireless technologies. The extent of Clearwire's involvement in that potential firestorm remains to be seen. Regardless, they'll be plenty of others looking to replicate what's going on in Milledgeville. What do you think?

Re: [WISPA] 3650Mhz and Wimax Vendors
There are different constraints. In 5 GHz PTP mode we can easily deal with 20 mile+ links due to EiRP limits, but in PMP typically we see most clients within 1 - 2 km of the sector. In 3.65 GHz PMP applications we have EiRP limitations and more importantly typical deployment limitations due to OLOS and NLOS between the base station and typically, outdoor CPE. Fundamentally in PMP applications, you are trading off coverage for capacity since you want the highest possible sector capacity (typically 15 - 18 Mbps net per sector) in order to maximize your revenue opportunity. Since WiMAX uses a TDMA MAC, a QPSK modulated end customer takes 27x the sector resource of a 64QAM customer. Typically, the goal is to maximize your sector throughput and customer count per sector to maximize your ROI. That being said, if you want a PTP application a product like the MAX+ AN-80i will deliver similar reach to 5 GHz with sub 1 ms latency.

Patrick Leary Aperto Networks 813.426.4230 mobile Thanks Patrick. It took me a long time to get past the original snake oil mentality of WiMax proponents when they were claiming 70 megabits out 70 miles. I went through a phase of being dead set against WiMax because I thought the culture lacked integrity over all the false hype. Then I began reading the real story of what made 802.16 technology tick. The more I read the more I decided that it really is a sound technology. I eventually bought a system from Redline and have been quite happy with the results. It is nice to be able to go into my higher end business customers and tell them I can deliver more for their money through the air than cable and DSL can bring to the table. That is TRUE. The service flows capability alone make WiMax worth the extra bucks. Now fast forward to this thread. I have seen my WiMax vendor of choice bashed by another vendor rep. I have seen the same person claiming 20 to 30km sized cells in 3650 which is not a reasonable expectation. It makes me sick to my stomach. We should expect that people will act with respect and integrity on industry list servers. Let's straighten up folks. Scriv WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Thinking out of the box ... Gigabit PTMP?
How about 4x4 MIMO 265QAM radios with S-OFDMA and 40 MHz TDD channels in 5 GHz bands? High bandwidth reasonable reach (say 4 miles at full rate LOS) and NLOS/OLOS capability (in fact you need OLOS/NLOS to get the decoupling of signals for MIMO spatial muxing to provide the non-coherent channels). It will be expensive to start but as DSP and radio costs continue to drop affordable (keeping in mind the CAPEX cost to pull fibre in many areas) in 2 - 3 years.
