Nokia-Siemens Netowrk has launched a new architecture known as ‘Liquid Radio’, that allows direct mobile broadband network capacity and coverage to flow to where it’s needed.

Liquid Radio enables a more economic use of network resources through sharing and redistributing capacity based on user demand. Nokia Siemens Networks has also announced its innovative Flexi Multiradio Antenna System as part of the Liquid Radio architecture. Nokia-Siemens Network expects to begin to deploy this architecture during 2011.

Liquid Radio: “Liquids are unconstrained, streaming to fill any gap or space,” said Thorsten Robrecht, head of Network Systems product management, Nokia Siemens Networks. “In the same way, our Liquid Radio architecture removes the constraints of traditional mobile broadband networks to address the ‘ebb and flow’ of traffic created by users’ movements across the network. We foresee demand for network capacity increasing to up to 1 GB per user per day. Not only will this require substantial network investments, but also a unique combination of base station sites for wide area coverage complemented by Wifi and small, compact micro, pico and femto cells. Nokia Siemens Networks Liquid Radio ensures that existing network investments are fully leveraged and that future investments deliver the return necessary to support today’s pressing challenge of maintaining and transitioning GSM, evolving 3G and introducing LTE and LTE-Advanced.”

Flexi Multiradio Antenna System: Nokia Siemens Networks’ Flexi Multiradio Antenna System is based on active antenna technology that combines antenna and radio part in one functional enclosure, built with dedicated power amplifiers for each antenna element which allows focusing on a particular radio connection and directing it to a specific user – as well as handling of multiple technologies in one unit. It delivering up to 65% capacity gain exectly where the user requires it. This approach reduces management complexity and allows connectivity for different layers of the network in one unified network and user experience. This is orchestrated by the company’s Self Organizing Networks (SON) capability and its continuous evolution to fully support cognitive self learning and adaptive networks.

Press Release: Chairman Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) Dr. Mohammed Yaseen has been selected as best Telecom leader for the year 2010. He received award as “Visionary Telecom Leader 2010” at 4th International Mobile Commerce Conference-2011 held at hotel in Karachi. The conference was attended by CEOs of banking and telecom companies. Addressing to the conference as Chief Guest, Dr. Mohammad Yaseen said that PTA has been working with State Bank on third party regulations and we would be able to come up with these regulation this year.

He said that mobile money is still in its emerging phases, there is consensus that regulations must be implemented gradually and designed to evolve as the industry expands and matures – an approach that seeks to respond to risks in the mobile money space as they emerge. Our Regulatory responses should then be proportional to the risks.

He said that World Bank study reveals that only 12% of the adult population of Pakistan has access to formal banking services. Only 24 Million people in Pakistan have bank accounts. Today only technology in Pakistan can bridge the digital divide.

Considering the scope, he added that PTA would like to introduce third party payment system with help of State Bank. The introduction of third party payment networks also known as MPSP (Mobile Payment Service Providers) would be of immense advantage since these third-party payment handing agents can work with many providers, rather than the closed networks. We could foresee opportunities for service providers (both from Banks and Mobile Sector) who move quickly to create new products, especially if they can establish shared networks of third party agents.

Chairman PTA said that another critical concern will be consumer trust. Consumer protection is critically important in the mobile money space. The need will become even more pressing as the industry expands into unbanked segments (We would for sure address this critical factor as well while enabling true mobile commerce system for the people of Pakistan.

At the end of session Dr. Mohammed Yaseen distributed mementos and awards. He also received “Visionary Telecom Leader 2010” on the occasion.

Chairman of Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) Dr Muhammad Yaseen has informed that the authority is laying optical fibre cables in Balochistan, and offering 92 per cent subsidy to telecom operators.

Speaking at a meeting with the Senate Standing Committee on Information Technology and Telecommunications – which expressed concern over the delay in providing communication facilities in rural areas – Yaseen said that despite the incentives, companies were reluctant to invest due to high operational costs.

The committee, under the chairmanship of Senator Moula Bakhsh Chandio, however, expressed confidence in the procedure of issuing licences for laying optical fibre cables.

Yaseen apprised the committee that the government was giving top priority to initiating communication facilities in rural areas, adding a telecommunication facility in Kohlo will be functional in April.

He said that at present there were 13 long distance and international licence operators nationwide, and so far, three telecom companies have laid their own optical fibre, while the remaining operators have leased the transmission facility.
