Link Budget Gains Coverage 30 db results in about 4x radius (~16x in coverage area, or subs) Data Link Rate 30 db results in 4-8x data rate increase Spatial Multiplexing adds another factor of 20-100% on top of this Reuse 30 db results in reuse improvement of ~4 We are targeting 1x3; competition is 4x3 or worse Capacity Increases 16 or greater based on link rate and reuse Cost 30 db will result in PAs, heat sink, power supply, boards, etc. which are considerably cheaper at both ends Iospan Wireless, Inc. // Company Confidential / February 2002 / Page 26
Link Budget Gains (2) Interference Mitigation and Cancellation Results in better frequency reuse, better signal quality (higher SNR) and higher user data rate and capacity Dynamic Link Adaptation Results in lower SINR margin to guarantee data rates, availability, and QoS Consequently results in better frequency reuse and easier cell planning Spatial Multiplexing Results in doubling the data rate Wider CPE Beam-width Results in easier installation (makes self install possible) Enables easier cell-splitting to scale as capacity demands grow Iospan Wireless, Inc. // Company Confidential / February 2002 / Page 27
