3. 10:00 am - 10:45am Roaming in an LTE Environment
Wednesday - 02/01/12
The FCC recently mandated
Paul Barbagallo data roaming among
mobile operators.

structured in an LTE
environment?
Trey Hanbury Philip Merrill
How should operators handle
data

4. 11:00-11:45am What to Do About 4G Backhaul?
Wednesday - 02/01/12
Although the transition to LTE is well
underway, 4G backhaul is still a complex
challenge for many operators.
With so many solutions available,
operators need to decide what solution
makes sense where.
Should an operator deploy fiber or
wireless?
Tony Cecchin Scott McClure
Should an operator deploying wireless
backhaul use its own spectrum or look
at high frequency options?
How can operators deploy low cost
backhaul for small cell LTE
deployments?
This session will provide operators with a
Errol Binda John Ogren comprehensive look at their mobile
backhaul options in various contexts.

5. 12:00-12:45pm 4GWE KEYNOTE SESSION
Wednesday - 02/01/12 High Frequency Spectrum Solutions
Amir Makleff
President &CEO Recent spectrum discussions have
BridgeWave focused on the lower frequency
Communications bands suitable for mobile services
to end users.
These discussions often miss
significant opportunities for
solutions that take advantage of
high frequency spectrum to
support mobile backhaul and
alternative access systems.
This session considers the role high
frequency spectrum can play in
next generation mobile networks.

6. 1:30-2:15pm When Does 4G Take Over Voice:
Wednesday - 02/01/12 VoLTE Rollout
Answering the need for data services
has lead to rapid deployment of
LTE by the carriers, while leaving
the voice traffic on the existing 2G
and 3G systems.
Steve Collins Manuel Vexler
However, the goal is to bring all media
to the evolved packet core.
What is the road map for the
migrating to Voice to LTE VoLTE and
how will SMS Text messaging will
be changed.
The Panel looks at the migration and
how carriers will evolve.

7. 2:30-3:15pm Breaking Down the Licensed-Unlicensed Wall
Wednesday - 02/01/12
Wireless ISPs often categorize themselves as
“licensed” or “unlicensed” based on the
type of spectrum they use to provide
service.
The spectrum crisis is beginning to break down
this categorical wall – all ISPs are feeling the
impact of the data explosion no matter
what type of spectrum they use.
Jeff Kohler Dr. Mo Shakouri Traditionally “unlicensed” ISPs are beginning to
look at licensed spectrum to increase their
capacity and coverage, and traditionally
“licensed” ISPs are offloading traffic using
unlicensed spectrum.
Given the new data reality, the time may be
ripe for previously unthinkable deals among
“licensed” and “unlicensed” ISPs.
This panel explores the potential synergies in
Greg Williams Chris Horne this sector.

8. 4:45 pm - 5:15pm The Case for Rich Communication Services:
Wednesday - 02/01/12 Maximizing Real Time Communications
Birds of A Feather Revenue
On the Show Floor Theatre
The cross elastics between Voice Calls and
Data Use has lead to revenue
anomalies,
In building to Voice over LTE VoLTE the
transition to the IP network will be
complete, but will it be enough to
Steve Collins Manuel Vexler maximize calling revenues?
Rich Communication Services offers to
expand beyond existing voice and add
services including video, contextual
media sharing, and presence.
How can carriers find the upside in these
services?

12. 1:00-1:45pm Managing the Spectrum Crisis
Thursday - 02/02/12
Most agree that increased smart device
penetration is creating spectrum crisis that
the transition to LTE can’t solve on its own.
They also agree that more mobile spectrum is
Fred Campbell needed, but spectrum legislation has been
slow in coming.
What are the best options for transitioning
more spectrum to mobile with or without
legislation?
Hank Hultquist Can heterogeneous networks manage the crisis
in the interim?
Are wholesale arrangements a viable option?
This panel examines the key issues surrounding
the spectrum crisis and options for
managing it.

14. 3:00-3:45pm Small Cells Where they Count;
Thursday - 02/02/12 Building out the Core
Small cells are being billed as a cost
effective solution for network
congestion and the seemingly
insatiable consumer appetite for
data, yet small cells also present
Piyush Raj
interesting and complex challenges
relating to deployment, spectrum
reuse and operations of a
heterogeneous network.
This session will explore the future of
small cells from the perspective of
leading operators and vendors in
the field and address some of the
Roger Williams Ronen Vengosh key challenges posed by this fast
emerging technology.

15. 9:00-9:45am Mobile Opportunities & Security
Friday - 02/03/12 in the Enterprise Sector
Mobile deployment is accelerating in the
enterprise sector due largely to the
availability of relatively low cost, highly
capable devices.
Although there is significant potential for
growth in the enterprise sector, fear of
data loss and leakage is hindering
broader adoption of smartphones by
Tim Wagner businesses with regulatory compliance
or enhanced security requirements.
What are the security requirements of the
mobile enterprise sector and how can
operators take advantage of this
opportunity?

16. 10:00-10:45am Policy Control Comes of Age
Friday - 02/03/12
The use of policy controls is
growing rapidly, especially in the
mobile sector.
The proliferation of mobile
broadband devices and the
transition to LTE are creating
policy control opportunities and
challenges for operators and
equipment vendors.
The latest evolution of policy
control in LTE networks and its
William Andrle impact on the players will be
analyzed in this session.
