1 IMPROVED CONNECTIVITY WITH TOTAL SOLUTIONS FOR A BETTER USER EXPERIENCE 1

2 UNIVERSAL CONNECTIVITY TECHNOLOGIES Network Convergence Technology LoRa-based IoT and FAN MSS Broadband Carnegie Technologies 2

3 A FAMILIAR SMARTPHONE EXPERIENCE Users should make and receive calls and texts from their own phone number, on their own device. Seamless connectivity in the new paradigm of MNOs and Wi-Fi carriers Calling and messaging apps should use contacts on the device. Include industry standard wireless security: WP, WPA, WPA2. Provide indoor/outdoor coverage so the user experience is never interrupted. 3

4 MNO-GRADE USER APPS ARE CRITICAL FOR MARKET ADOPTION 4

5 NETWORK CONVERGENCE TECHNOLOGY 5

6 NETWORK CONVERGENCE BUSINESS CASE Mobile users expect highly reliable connections anywhere in the world Mobile bandwidth demand continues to climb. Mobile video traffic alone will grow 55 percent annually in the next five years, Dragan Nerandzic, Ericsson Canada CTO, More users means more congested wireless networks. Even when Wi-Fi is available, it doesn t always deliver the best connection. Carrier switching costs are dropping No contract plans, à la carte offerings, and new alternatives hold their providers to higher standards. 6

7 NETWORK CONVERGENCE BUSINESS CASE MNOs focus on urban centers first; less connected regions are continually underserved. Historically, devices have used a one-size-fits-all approach to managing how they connect to available networks. Apple, Google, and device makers decide how our devices connect to networks. Network Convergence is changing the way operators and users think about device connectivity. 7

8 A PLATFORM APPROACH TO NETWORK CONVERGENCE Innovative companies are developing new ways to empower mobile users and service providers. Better connection management, signal aggregation, and all new device-level analytics. These solutions use a Mobility Processing Core coupled with device-level user Apps and SDKs. 8

9 A PLATFORM APPROACH TO NETWORK CONVERGENCE Connection Management Operators and Users alike can do more to manage how a device connects. Link Aggregation Combine Wi-Fi and Mobile Networks to achieve a higher combined throughput. Gapless Handover No more dropped connections when moving between networks. Network Analytics Providing insight to network performance and usage patterns at the device level. 9

10 CONNECTION MANAGEMENT Reduce the chances of getting bad Wi-Fi or turning off the Wi-Fi radio Software installed on a wireless device continuously analyzes network quality Subscriber data combined with crowdsourced quality metrics for improved network connectivity decisions. The Service Provider and Subscriber are empowered to customize connectivity policies 10

11 LINK AGGREGATION & GAPLESS HANDOVER 1 Connected to Guest Wireless 2 Private Wi-Fi detected 3 Cellular fills the gap Allows a device to take advantage of multiple networks simultaneously (cellular, Wi-Fi, Satellite, etc). Mobility Cores can be placed as intermediaries in the network to perform link aggregation and achieve maximum throughput 4 Low Quality Wi-Fi detected Cellular stays active 5 Cellular fills gap again Designed to least cost route supplemented by secondary networks to provide a minimum guaranteed thru-put Gapless handover technology provides an uninterrupted experience when the Subscriber moves between available wireless networks (e.g., dropped video calls) 11

12 NEW DEVICE-LEVEL ANALYTICS QUALITY MONITOR Manages device connections and provides new insight to ALL networks: Cellular, Wi-Fi, and Satellite. Ability to Monitor: devices, usage, location, and network performance trends. Provides intelligence to improve customer support. Provides network metrics to optimize network assets 12

13 LoRa IOT SOLUTIONS 13

14 IOT BUSINESS CASE IoT investments are now becoming meaningful Global IoT market size in 2016 was $157B, estimated to grow to $457B by Source: GrowthEnabler, Market Pulse Report, Internet of Things (IoT), April 2017 A growing diversity of industries are exploring IoT Healthcare, Retail, Construction, Hospitality, Insurance, Automotive, Agriculture, Manufacturing, Consumer Electronics. IoT connected devices are taking many different shapes Wearables, Sensor Layered Homes/Cities/Vehicles/Tools, Smart Gauges and Feedback Mechanisms. Connectivity limitations are often the biggest roadblock Companies have solvable Problems, budgets and C-suites ready for adoption. 14

15 WHY LPWAN AND LoRa? LPWAN (Low Power Wide Area Networks) Long range Lower battery requirements Smaller messages Long Range, Low Power (LoRa) is an open standard LPWAN. LoRa alliance has the support of over 400 stakeholders. 15

16 LoRa-BASED IOT LoRa IoT is becoming market dominant. Customers need true end-to-end solutions: From Sensors to the Management Apps. Easily deployed gateways, solar powered and battery backup for unmanned operation. Management solutions utilize employee or company owned smartphones, tablets or desktops. Enterprise-grade security is critical. 16

17 5G Wi-Fi ac/ad/n 4G 3G Wi-Fi a/b/g 2G Bandwidth Required Bluetooth/BLE RFID/NFC WBAN ZigBee WPAN Range Capability

18 FIELD AREA NETWORKS 18

19 FIELD AREA NETWORKS (FAN) Drop-and-Deploy communications networks. Designed for use in remote areas where cellular connectivity is unreliable or non-existent. Solar powered, battery backup. Self-healing Wi-Fi mesh routers (up to 200 per deployment). Bundled with LoRa Gateways and Routers for plug-and-play connectivity for large networks in low infrastructure zones. Backhaul via satellite or terrestrial 4G/5G nodes CONNECTS TO SATELLITE BACKHAUL FOR GLOBAL CONNECTIVITY 19

20 MSS BROADBAND 20

21 MSS BROADBAND BUSINESS CASE Global demand for MSS is increasing. Industrial, Military, Construction, Outdoor Professionals, Multimedia/Journalism, Adventurists, Luxury, Disaster Preparedness, etc. Seeding the transition to the LEO/MEO mega-onstellations Portable Satellite solutions are feature limited, expensive, and hard to use. Most solutions don t take full advantage of the Subscriber s SmartDevice Broadband capabilities. 21

22 SATELLITE PHONE EVOLUTION 22

23 PORTABLE SATELLITE HOT-SPOT USER DEMANDS Maintain the SmartDevice User Experience Pair with any smartphone. Voice calling, text messaging, and data for multiple devices simultaneously.
