SPECTRUM ECONOMY<br />

<strong>THE</strong> CHALLENGE OF TOMORROW<br />

Owing to the liberalization and deregulation of the telecommunications<br />

markets, network providers as well as<br />

regulatory authorities today are confronted with new<br />

challenges and requirements.<br />

Extensive demand for qualified services and products<br />

as well as support by specialized engineers and software<br />

developers in the entire area of radio network planning<br />

mark this development. The need for fast reaction<br />

capacity and accelerated frequency allocation and license<br />

processing is another indicator for this dynamic change.<br />

Strong expansion and dynamization of markets have led<br />

to national as well as international ITU regulations gaining<br />

more and more importance. Licensing and frequency<br />

allocation processes have reached a maximum level of<br />

complexity owing to coordination activities going beyond<br />

regional borders.<br />

The frequency spectrum is getting ever more densely<br />

populated as the development of new technologies and<br />

new services keeps on advancing:<br />

In broadcasting e.g. by means of new technologies and<br />

new services such as synchronized analog FM stations,<br />

new services like DAB (digital audio broadcasting) or<br />

DVB (digital video broadcasting).<br />

In mobile radiotelephone services e.g. through the<br />

development of the UMTS market for mobile telecommunications.<br />

In the area of fixed networks e.g. by use of broadband<br />

PMP/WLL/LMDS technology and high-bit rated point-topoint<br />

microwave connections.<br />

Therefore, efficient handling of the resource spectrum is<br />

essential. And LS telcom are the only company in this<br />

sector to offer their customers worldwide application<br />

software in accordance with industrial standards,<br />

combined with a seamless service concept.<br />

MEETING <strong>THE</strong><br />

CHALLENGES OF<br />

NETWORK ROLLOUT:<br />

SITEMARKET<br />

E-SOLUTIONS<br />

With the e-Solution business field, LS telcom pave new<br />

ways for the processing of planning and coordination tasks.<br />

Even the "classic" engineering and spectrum management<br />

tools of LS telcom point the way ahead; but the new<br />

generation of Internet/Intranet-based applications and<br />

services constitute an international break-through in terms<br />

of handling, efficiency and cost.<br />

The e-Solutions are a group of tools, which, for the time<br />

being, are used in mobile and fixed communication only<br />

but, in future, will be employed in all other services as well.<br />

e-Solutions are offered by LS telcom as a service and may<br />

be put to a customer's use within their own Intranet.<br />

COMMON FEATURES OF <strong>THE</strong> TOOLS ARE:<br />

Easy-to-handle user surface, requiring no special<br />

technical knowledge<br />

Pay-per-use, allowing calculation of just a few<br />

objects without any expensive tools and data<br />

Access worldwide to any computer with Internet<br />

connection<br />

Privacy first, providing each and every customer<br />

with their own password and transaction-safe site<br />

in our application for configuration of their own<br />

databases and tools<br />

The Internet-based SiteMarket is exemplary for the new<br />

technology<br />

www.placeAbase.com<br />

consistently applies the new technology to meet one of the<br />

biggest challenges of network rollout today.<br />

By tradition, site acquisition requires a great deal of time,<br />

effort and cost for the planning areas of all network providers.<br />

The SiteMarket takes over a major part of the work<br />

to be done, thus greatly facilitating procedures or making<br />

them completely redundant.

GET ON-LINE. PLACE A BASE.<br />

ADVANTAGES FOR NETWORK OPERATORS<br />

LOOKING FOR SITES ARE:<br />

Sites are directly available, classified by quality and degree<br />

of development.<br />

Depending on the degree of development, preliminary<br />

agreements have been concluded with the owners to allow<br />

rental agreements to be arranged in the shortest of time.<br />

Quickly arranged rental agreements speed up rollout.<br />

Almost free of charge, it may be established if a site is<br />

generally suited, thus saving a lot of acquisition costs.<br />

The complete site report may be obtained on-line at<br />

moderate charges, reducing exploration times to zero.<br />

Analysis instruments allow direct exploration of the site,<br />

based on a customer's characteristics such as antenna and<br />

hardware directly linked to the computer, making extensive<br />

transfers into other planning tools unnecessary.<br />

LS telcom check compatibility problems in connection with<br />

co-siting.<br />

Worldwide access allows potential operators to locate<br />

transmission sites in the target area at a very early stage.<br />

Sites may be locked on call, which is a great benefit<br />

compared to the current common practice of stock<br />

acquisition.<br />

ADVANTAGES FOR <strong>THE</strong> SITE OWNER/<br />

SITE BROKER ARE:<br />

Worldwide offering of the site means bigger chances<br />

of rental.<br />

Multiple use by controlled co-siting generates higher returns.

LS TELCOM’S<br />

UNCHALLENGED<br />

TECHNOLOGICAL<br />

LEADERSHIP<br />

SPECTRUM ECONOMY<br />

Wireless is the key word of our day and age. Nobody<br />

wants to be restrained by cords or sockets. Far from it,<br />

more and more high-speed services should be offered<br />

cordless, be it Internet per UMTS, Blue-Tooth for intercommunication<br />

or PmP for broadband-tapping of the last<br />

mile. Everyone needs channels and the corresponding<br />

bandwidth from the seemingly unlimited stock of the<br />

frequency spectrum.<br />

This frantic demand for frequencies along with the deregulation<br />

measures taken within the last 10 years has<br />

resulted in an entirely different requirement profile<br />

for regulatory authorities. Today, frequencies have to<br />

be assigned efficiently and without delay. Expectations of<br />

license owners have risen in line with the high fees<br />

charged for lucrative licenses. The regulator has to<br />

guarantee that such frequencies dearly paid for are free of<br />

any interference. Coordination with neighboring<br />

countries may be effected without delay since any time lost<br />

may automatically reduce the license owners' revenue.<br />

In order to manage this diversity of tasks, LS telcom have<br />

developed a complete software package, which is used by<br />

regulators all over the world. Since its first implementation<br />

in 1995, the SPECTRA concept has been pointing the<br />

way ahead for modern spectrum management,<br />

securing LS telcom's unchallenged technological leadership<br />

in this sector.<br />

Fundamental pillar of the system is an ORACLE-based<br />

frequency administration database, the SPECTRA DB.<br />

It contains comprehensive data of any transmitter/receiver<br />

site located in a country, requiring a license. The data stock<br />

goes far beyond the technical parameters in so far as it<br />

contains all and any parameters relevant to the licensing<br />

procedure and ensuing license phase. Furthermore, it<br />

stores the data of any such foreign station as may be<br />

relevant to the coordination with stations of one' s own.<br />

Around SPECTRA DB, special applications have been<br />

installed to allow transparent access to this database and<br />

feed it with data, or retrieve data from it respectively. For<br />

this purpose, interfaces were created to serve communication<br />

among the tools. These interfaces are of such general<br />

character, however, that they may also be used for tool<br />

communication in the mobile/fixed area. This procedure<br />

allows the SPECTRA system to dock in to almost any<br />

LS telcom application.


LS_Image_Innen_12022004.qxd 20.02.2004 11:16 Seite 18<br />

The SPECTRAplus application plays a major part here,<br />

being able to perform data input and output, invoicing or<br />

workflow management, depending on the system's<br />

upgrades. Integration of the Print Form Processor enables<br />

customers, after a short training phase, to even program<br />

documents such as licenses and invoices.<br />

The SPECTRAplus application allows regulators to<br />

program frequency plans specific to the various countries<br />

independently. Test scenarios may be created or new<br />

services and comments may be added to existing frequency<br />

plans.<br />

Next to this administration unit, all engineering tools may<br />

be docked in to SPECTRA DB. Each one of these tools,<br />

such as CHIRplus_LM or CHIRplus_BC, is optimized<br />

for efficient handling of one work process for one or more<br />

services. The expert feels completely at home here, and<br />

data are clearly arranged in structures best suited for the<br />

service. The tools are as efficient when it comes to<br />

dealing with complex tasks.<br />

MONITORplus forms the bridge between target data<br />

stock in the SPECTRA DB and actual measurements.<br />

Provided with interfaces to the systems of the leading producers<br />

of monitoring equipment, data relating to individual<br />

license entries may be mapped, or measurement requirements<br />

may be formulated. Furthermore, MONITORplus<br />

provides easy-to-use analysis instruments, allowing universal<br />

field strength and compatibility analyses.<br />

The universal workflow management, available as an individual<br />

tool in the SPECTRA system or partially integrated<br />

in the tools in accordance with ITU conventions, constitutes<br />

an essential feature in our product world.<br />
