7 16e Enhanced: A Key Stepping Stone 7 Improve the performance of WiMAX1 (802.16e) by over 50% Better capitalize on operators sustained investments in WiMAX1 (802.16e) Utilize the same e ecosystem and end user devices Key 16e enhanced Performance Features Double peak data rates with improved spectral efficiency Higher order MIMO capabilities (up to 4x4 and collaborative) Improved Reuse1 capabilities (advanced FFR) Enhanced Interference Management Relay (self-backhauling) support

8 WiMAX 2: WiMAX Is Future Proof 8 WiMAX is available now Products shipping now OFDM - Best Spectral Efficiency for Wireless IP Data (Based on IEEE e) MIMO Smart Antenna technology Simple flat-ip access network architecture Time-to-market advantage WiMAX 2 Advanced technology in development Based on IEEE m Wider channels Higher order MIMO support Enhanced spectral efficiency Backwards compatibility with e

9 Projections for WiMAX 2 (Based on IEEE m) 9 Duplex Parameter Scalable Channel BW Multi-carrier support DL Peak channel and user data rate Peak DL Spectral Efficiency Peak UL Spectral Efficiency Average DL Spectral Efficiency Average UL Spectral Efficiency VoIP Capacity Latency Mobility Support Advanced Antenna Systems TDD, FDD, and H-FDD 5, 7, 8.75, 10, 20, and 40 MHz Target Performance Up to 100 MHz operating BW (Contiguous or non-contiguous channel aggregation) > 1000 Mbps with low mobility (3 km/hr) > 100 Mbps with high mobility 8.0 bps/hz with (2x2) MIMO, 15.0 bps/hz with (4x4) MIMO 2.8 bps/hz with (1x2) SIMO, 6.75 bps/hz with (2x4) MIMO > 2.6 bps/hz with (2x2) MIMO > 1.3 bps/hz with (1x2) SIMO > 30 Concurrent sessions per MHz [(2x2) MIMO in DL, (1x2) SIMO in UL] User Plane: < 10 ms UL or DL Control Plane: Idle to active < 100 ms Up to 500 km/hr DL: (2x2), (2x4), (4x2), (4x4), (8x8) UL: (1x2), (1x4), (2x4), (4x4)

10 Business Case: Access Network 10 Access network is largest contributor to end-to-end network cost WiMAX overlay can reuse existing cellular infrastructure for cost-effective broadband access Cost-effective solutions for rural or urban environments Spectral efficiency is a key factor for urban deployments Fewer base stations to meet data density requirements Range/coverage and low base station cost is key for rural deployments Self-contained, all-outdoor base station solution reduces infrastructure and installation cost

11 Business Case: End User Devices 11 Global, standards-based solution drives volume Assures availability of low cost, end-user devices More than 130 certified end-user devices Growing number of multi-mode, multi-band devices Simultaneous support for WiMAX, 3G, WiFi, etc. Support for global roaming Embedded WiMAX capability eliminates costly operator subsidization Laptops, netbooks, etc.

12 High BS Capacity Leads to Quick Payback 12 Overlay lowers fixed base station CAPEX Reduces base station CAPEX per subscriber Bottom Line: Quick payback for base station access network
