Senza Fili Consulting, Jan 2005, Pages: 85
"UMA and Beyond: Mobile Operators Benefit from Wi-Fi and Cellular Convergence” provides a comprehensive assessment of the UMA (Unlicensed Mobile Access) technology and Wi-Fi and cellular convergence. This report from presents a clear, concise overview of the technology, and explores the market drivers that will lead to adoption. To help service providers and vendors size the opportunity, it includes a forecast of the market demand and revenue opportunity for UMA services.
"Mobile operators see Wi-Fi and cellular convergence as a cost-effective way to improve residential coverage, increase ARPU, and keep churn down.”
According to this report, Wi-Fi and cellular convergence subscribers are expected to reach 55 million by 2010. Mobile Operators are planning to deploy UMA services over the next 12 months, opening the door to Wi-Fi and cellular convergence. Mobile operators expected to launch service in 2006.
Topics covered - UMA technology overview - Standardization efforts - Drivers to adoption in different geographic markets, with forecasts of user demand - Services for the residential and enterprise market - The opportunity for mobile operators - The competitive threat to fixed operators and VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) service providers - The role of handset manufacturers
Extensive forecasts (2006-2010) - Worldwide demand for Wi-Fi and Cellular Convergence services - Impact of Wi-Fi and Cellular Convergence on subscriber usage of fixed and cellular lines (including analysis of effect on MoU from home and away from home, on metered and unmetered calls) - Revenues from Wi-Fi and Cellular Convergence services, including revenues gained by mobile operators (taking into account the effect of cannibalization), and revenues lost by fixed operators
All your key questions answered - When will UMA handsets will be available and how much will they cost? - What is the timeline for deployment? - Will subscribers pay for UMA services? How much is UMA worth to them? - What is the effect of broadband and Wi-Fi penetration on UMA demand? - Will users be able to use UMA phones in hotspots? Is this a key adoption driver? - What is UMA and how it relates to other ongoing standardization efforts, such as 3GPP (The Third Generation Partnership Project) and IEEE 802.21? - How can UMA guarantee quality of service (QoS)? - How (and when) will UMA move towards SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and all-IP networks?
How this report will help you Mobile operators – understand the opportunity offered by Wi-Fi and cellular convergence and learn how to take full advantage of it Fixed and VoIP service providers – evaluate the competitive threat posed by UMA and develop an alternative Wi-Fi convergence strategy Vendors – assess the demand, and establish a timeline, for Wi-Fi and cellular converged handsets and find more about the mobile operators requirements Investors, consultants, regulators – get a better understanding of the Wi-Fi cellular convergence ecosystem and a new perspective on the potential of the technology
