4 1. Introduction Wireless networks are under siege! The mass adoption of smartphones and the explosion of chatty mobile apps are placing an unprecedented burden on wireless networks which were initially designed to handle voice, not data. The accelerated growth in mobile traffic is driven by a mass migration to everything mobile and the rapid adoption of increasingly sophisticated smartphones and tablets by more and more users worldwide. Faster networks and more elaborate connected applications are also driving up data usage anywhere from a factor of 30 to 40 globally (Cisco, 2011). There is no sign that this growth, which is often referred to as a data tsunami and a signaling storm, will slow down anytime soon. Mobile data traffic growth continued unabated doubling again in 2011 for the eighth straight year. The signaling traffic is expected to grow in even faster (Chetan Sharma, 2012). As a result, mobile operators are forced to rethink they way they manage data services. They face increased economic pressures as network upgrades and related investments required to maintain their quality of services must grow faster than subscribers data revenue. US wireless networks already running at 80% of total capacity (Credit Suisse, 2011) 50% of US mobile users own a smartphone (Nielsen, 2012) 30% of smartphone users average more than 1 Gigabyte/month (Chetan Sharma, 2012) Users will download more than 182 billion mobile apps in 2015 (IDC, 2011) Android smartphones are being adopted at a pace of 850,000 new devices per day (Google, 2012) More than half of Facebook users access the social network from a mobile phone (Facebook 2012) Mobile data traffic was 8x the size of the entire global Internet in 2010 (Cisco 2012) 4
5 A 2011 Tellabs study shows that operators profitability is at risk. Operators need to do things differently to stay ahead of the revenue cost curve," said Stuart Benington, director of global portfolio planning at Tellabs. Network and traffic optimization solutions enable operators to effectively manage data traffic and maintain their margin while improving the performance of mobile devices and the user experience with the mobile Internet and smartphone applications. 2. Mobile Users, Devices and Applications The number of mobile subscriptions is expected to grow to over 6 billion in 2012 worldwide. With less than 1 billion smartphone users today, the conversion cycle from feature phones to smart devices has barely started, yet more than 15 Billion application downloads have been registered on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. Many wireless operators around the world have already faced highly publicized problems due to network congestion: In January 2012, NTT Docomo suffered a major network issue that left 2.5 million subscribers unable to make voice or data calls for about four and a half hours. In November 2011, KDDI president Takashi Tanaka commented: By 2014 data traffic is predicted to overflow KDDI s capacity even if we use LTE capacity as well as the 3G capacity. This traffic issue is a top priority. In October 2010, an Android Instant Messaging app launched on the Android Market bought the T-Mobile network in the US to its knee. In 2010, O2 in the UK suffered a significant amount of dropped calls in the London area and AT&T has found it very difficult to manage the iphone data demands. 5
6 Estimates show that a single smartphone produces as much data traffic as 35 traditional feature phones. Converting 10 million people to smartphones is like adding 350 million new feature phone users, in terms of impact to networks (Cisco 2012). 3. Consumers expectations are set Smartphones and tablets are becoming the new standard way to connect with the world, friends and family, Internet, cloud services and social networking. More than half of Facebook users access social networks from a mobile device and 27 percent of Americans now get their news using mobile devices (PEW Research, 2012). More importantly, users expectations for mobile have been set: they want desktop-like connectivity from their mobile device: immediate access to news, applications, games, music, streaming content and more. Mobile users expect the same quality of service and experience across networks and do not differentiate between the various networks they need to connect to. Global Mobile Data Traffic Forecast by Region Adding to the mobile data tsunami is the freereign users have to download any application from the multiple online app stores available on smartphones. This creates an incredible challenge for operators as any stakeholder in the mobile ecosystem - content providers, application developers and device manufacturers - can tap into their networks limited bandwidth and signaling resources without their oversight. 6
7 4. Resulting Network Congestion and Signaling Storm The combination of always-on, data-hungry smartphones and the rapid change of users behavior towards everything mobile leads to network congestion and degraded quality of service. Congestion disrupts mobile users by decreasing the speed and consistency of network connections and even leads to network brown out, where no access is available and users cannot even place phone calls. Many solutions have already been deployed to help with network congestion. 4G and LTE upgrades promise to deliver more capacity. At the same time, it sets users expectations even higher for easy access to more connected applications and data, generating an even greater load of signaling traffic and requests to the network. What s really needed to help operators cope with network congestion must go beyond the addition of capacity and requires a different approach that redefines how devices, applications and the network interact which each other. Network Congestion has three forms 7
8 5. Current solutions Solutions available today are fairly siloed, primarily focused on increasing bandwidth and releasing 3G networks from the rising waves of data traffic. Adding capacity, as well as introducing more sophisticated technologies to handle the traffic on wireless networks, which were initially designed for voice, have been the most commonly deployed solutions. Solution type Standards (Fast Dormancy, 3GPP Release 8) Network Upgrades (to 4G and LTE) Traffic Avoidance (data caps, pricing policies, traffic off-loading) Transport Optimization Limitations Require both devices and networks to be upgraded Eliminate signaling one application at a time, but does not coordinate radio usage across multiple applications High CAPEX Take years to deploy Demand and traffic increases faster than upgrades Offloading wireless traffic to alternative networks (i.e: Wifi) is not yet transparent enough to consumers to make it a viable solution for the mass market Traffic offloading artificially moves the network costs to another network Studies have shown that data caps do not solve traffic congestion at peak time Not ubiquitous enough, typically focused on one type of content or usage such as video or browser Fast Dormancy and New standards Smartphones are increasingly always on with chatty applications receiving frequent updates and polling the network. These requests cause the radio to switch on and off constantly which drains the device battery. New approaches by companies like Nokia Siemens Networks and Huawei address this issue by rapidly disconnecting the device from the network once updates are sent or received. Fast dormancy succeeds in improving battery life, however, it puts a heavy load on wireless networks. The constant connections and disconnections increase the amount of signaling traffic which lowers the performance of the network overall. More sophisticated versions of fast dormancy are being rolled-out to improve battery life and reduce signaling overload. These require both the device and the network to be upgraded to support new standards and eliminate signaling one application at a time, but do not help with the coordination of radio usage across multiple applications. 8
9 Increasing Capacity and Network Upgrades As end users turn to their mobile devices to view and share rich media content such as video, photos or music, mobile operators have invested heavily to increase the amount of bandwidth and make room for more data. Network upgrades such as 3G to 4G address the need for bigger pipes to transport more data, but it does not take into account the type of data being shared. More bandwidth helps to manage mobile video applications, but fails to address the vast array of network connected applications that create a new emerging problem: signaling capacity. There is no one easy fix. The key word is minimize since there is no cure for wireless network overload. Regardless of how much more capacity we create, if the demand continues to increase, the issue of network congestion will continue to be with us. - Andrew Seybold, 2012 Traffic Avoidance Offloading traffic to other networks such as Wifi is a popular way to encourage consumers to reduce the load on wireless networks. This approach benefits subscribers by extending their potentially capped data plans. However, it is still limited to specific use cases where a Wifi network is available and it is not yet deployed broadly or in a way that is transparent to consumers. Pricing and usage policing also falls in the category of traffic avoidance by controlling and reshaping users behavior. However, while capping data and introducing tiered plans can address abusive usage, studies have found that this does not address the challenge of traffic at peak times. Transport Optimization Numerous solutions have emerged as a result of the pressures on 2G and 3G networks to support increasingly rich data, far more data than these networks were designed for. These solutions can now be used on 4G and LTE networks and applied to reduce the amount of data transported. While still valid, they remain limited to specific applications or content and are focused on solving the bandwidth issue rather than the bottleneck of signaling. 9
10 6. Optimizing the Mobile Ecosystem from Users to Devices, Wireless Operators and Application Providers The solutions listed in (5.) bring significant improvements, but none of them tackle the optimization of traffic from end to end: from end user behavior to applications, devices and the network. 7. SEVEN Open Channel SEVEN has taken a unique and innovative approach that solves the problem from end-toend: from the user and device to the network and the application. SEVEN Open Channel scales mobile for the Internet by truly reshaping and coordinating the interaction between the device and the network in an effective way: optimizing traffic across all mobile apps rather than addressing the challenge one application, one type of content, one cell tower or one category of users at a time. 10
11 By utilizing software components on the mobile device and in the operator network, Open Channel can optimize the way devices interact with the network and minimize their consumption of the wireless world s limited resources: battery, signaling and bandwidth. Open Channel reduces the time the device is on the network by up to 40 percent without impacting the user experience. Open Channel works by monitoring requests for data made by mobile apps and only connecting to the network if updates are available. Currently, applications like Facebook, , Twitter, chat, weather and others, send hundreds of uncoordinated requests daily consuming significant signaling resources and network bandwidth. Using a virtualized proxy and caching technology, Open Channel mediates the exchange of control information between the device and the network and eliminates unnecessary mobile app chatter. Open Channel reduces the time the device is on the network by 40% without impacting the user experience. It relies on both a device and server component, and remains protocol and application transparent, making it the first optimization solution to work with all apps on a device. It requires no application rewrite, nor does it have to be built into new applications. The software resides on the handset and in the cloud and acts as a virtual proxy, monitoring all data network transmissions to cache the control and data transfer requests. Never before has there been the capability to coordinate the disparate network access requests and polling of all apps on a device. Every mobile app can take advantage of the optimization because no application rewrite is required. This drives a reduction in signaling and data traffic in a world where operators have little or no control over the apps a user chooses. Additionally, Open Channel can help operators target heavily used services by delivering deep application and protocol knowledge so that the operator and service provider can tap into the SEVEN service via APIs to further optimize traffic for content delivery. 11
12 Key Features of Open Channel Eliminate unnecessary signaling on the network Chatter from mobile apps is eliminated with Open Channel. This stops unnecessary connections to the network, especially when no new information needs to be exchanged. Coordinate the use of the mobile device radio Open Channel monitors requests that are made by applications to turn on the device radio and coordinates these to optimize the amount of signaling placed on the network. Reduce the amount of data transported on the network Open Channel only connects the device to the network when new updates are available, and also decreases the amount of bandwidth utilized by connected applications. Open Channel Dashboard Measure network activity including signaling activity, application data traffic, network requests and cached data. No application rewrite required When deployed by operators or device manufacturers, Open Channel is completely transparent to connected applications and requires no changes or special integration by application developers. Support for any network technology Open Channel works independently of the network technologies in use (2G, 3G, 4G, LTE, WiFi or others), requires no changes to wireless networks and can operate in conjunction with new standards for fast network dormancy, smart signaling and other network optimizations, further enhancing the value and longevity of these investments. 12
13 Key Benefits of Open Channel Up to 40 percent in signaling and 70 percent reduction in data traffic With better coordination of the radio usage across applications and services, the radio is turned on and off less often which results in increased battery life by up to 25 percent. Take control over the risks of network congestion Open Channel brings relief to operators faced with the increasing risks of network congestion brought by the accelerated adoption of smartphones and the proliferation of mobile applications downloaded by millions of users from open application stores. Maximize ROI on network upgrades Open Channel requires no changes to the network and is fully compatible with network upgrades. It also augments the return on other network optimization approaches and new standards for fast dormancy. Benefits to mobile users Users benefit from the SEVEN optimization technology through the reduction in three types of network congestion (geographic, behavioral, and application) to improve device performance regardless of location. As a result, users experience a higher quality of service and improved battery life. Open Channel is a truly urgent and much needed solution that addresses key and critical issues for today's exponentially growing mobile broadband networks. - GSMA Awards Judge With Open Channel, carriers no longer need to monitor data traffic one app, one user or one cell tower at a time. 13
14 8. Economic Benefits to Mobile Operators The current smartphone data tsunami has the dangerous potential of limiting innovation and slowing down the value delivered to users by mobile operators as they get pressured to introduce gatekeeping technologies on their networks (data caps, limited pricing policies, throttling, restricted application downloads) to maintain quality of service and margins on data ARPU. Open Channel turns the challenge into opportunities for operators (and other players in the mobile ecosystem) giving them the desired flexibility. This might include the option to maintain their unlimited plan structure, open their network to more applications and services, and innovate faster. Open Channel provides a better understanding of the behavior of applications and end users on wireless networks, enables highly personalized services based on usage, and most importantly improve the overall user experience. SEVEN allows operators to pursue new business models to maximize revenue associated with the explosion of demand for mobile data. SEVEN s new platform is uniquely positioned to single-handedly address these challenges while maximizing an operator s available network resources. -Michael Thelander, Founder and CEO Signals Research Group LLC The SEVEN solution is completely transparent to end users who benefit from improved application interactivity, improved battery life and less network congestion - minimizing the times when they cannot place a call, experience increase latency or cannot access the application of his/her choice. Open Channel has the potential to change the economics of the mobile industry this innovative solution enables operators to not only keep pace with the explosion of data traffic and maintain the quality of service their brand is known for, but it also enables them to support more smartphone users on the same network infrastructure and improve their margins on data. 14
