3. Global mobile data traffic in 2010 (237 petabytes per
month) was over three times greater than the total global
Internet traffic in 2000 (75 petabytes per month).
5. DEVICE DIVERSIFICATION
The introduction of laptops,
tablets, and high-end
handsets onto mobile
networks is a major generator
of traffic,
because these devices offer
the consumer content and
applications not supported by
the previous generation of
mobile devices. 2009 2010 2015

6. Main contributors to mobile data growth
• As mobile network connection speeds increase, the
average bit rate of content accessed through the mobile
network will increase.
• As the battery life of mobile devices improves, mobile
minutes of use will increase.
• As mobile network capacity improves, operators are
more likely to offer mobile broadband packages
comparable in price and speed to those of fixed
broadband, thereby encouraging mobile broadband
substitution.
• The shift towards unicast from broadcast will affect
mobile networks as much as it will affect fixed networks.
8. World Trend of Mobile Users Population
• Fast increase of 3G/HSPA/HSPA+ users due to high smartphone penetration
• Stable user base in GSM/GPRS/EDGE
• Mobile WiMax is not growing as fast due to slower development in Wimax standards
and smaller deployment scale compared to other technologies
• User base in 3GPP-family technologies still dominate most parts of the world; easier
roaming

21. Comparison of WiMax 2 and LTE Development Timelines
The rapid growth of broadband
usage driven by flat rates,
multimedia applications , smart
phones, connected devices,
social networking poses capacity
challenges for today’s
broadband operators especially
in high density urban areas. If
3G network is used to provide for
both Mobile data and DSLsubstitute, then this challenge
aggravates.
Up to 21 Mbps
WiMAX offers operators another
option to not only add capacity to
the access network to meet
current demands and to
segregate fixed broadband
usage from mobile data usage
where DSL is not available.
The other option of course is to
wait for LTE .

High-definition video will be more prevalent, and the proportion of streamed content as compared to side-loaded content is also expected to increase with average mobile network connection speed.The amount of long-form video viewed on mobile devices will grow as battery life and processing power advances.The usage profile of substitution users is substantially higher than average.The shift from broadcast to unicast means that traffic can increase dramatically even while the total amount of time spent watching video remains relatively constant.
