Supported by many of the world’s leading communication providers and research bodies, this year’s Conference will include daily plenary sessions and 11 symposia on various hot topics in the communications industry. The technical program will also be complemented by exciting tutorials and workshops. Comprehensive positive feedback has been received from top executives from carriers, suppliers and providers, senior representatives from international and regional organizations as well as scientists, engineers and academics on previous IEEE ICC conferences and during the planning of the 2009 event – demonstrated by the huge number of papers submitted. This reflects the dynamics of our industry and the growing need for knowledge sharing in a fast-paced market. Dresden and its surrounding area are becoming increasingly important for manufacturers in the communications industry as well as for communication-related R&D institutes. Additionally, the conference venue, the “International Congress Center”, presents participants with the opportunity to visit the heart of the historical city of Dresden and view sights such as the Semper Opera House, the Zwinger, or the famously rebuilt Frauenkirche. In this regard, the objectives of this event should be: technical and professional exchange, personal networking, sharing information, and visiting sites of historical importance. Welcome to Dresden – I hope you enjoy the conference! Hamid Akhavan, CEO T-Mobile International AG and General Chair IEEE ICC 2009 2 Welcome To Dresden On behalf of the Technical Program Committee and as a resident of the city of Dresden, I am glad to welcome you to IEEE ICC 2009 in Dresden, Germany! This year the TPC of IEEE ICC consists of 45 experts from all over the world. We managed 3,600 paper registrations of which about 3,000 were reviewed and 1046 are presented at IEEE ICC 2009. About 1,700 TPC members collected more than 10,000 reviews, at least three for each reviewed submission. Thanks to all the efforts by the TPC, we are able to offer you an interesting and manifold program. I would like to thank everyone who supported us, particularly all the reviewers! Among others, we can proudly offer you at this year’s IEEE ICC keynote speeches by H. Akhavan (T-Mobile International AG), V. Reding (European Commission), B. Hirosaki (NEC), H. Kremling (Vodafone), S. Redl (Qualcomm) and T. Jurk (State Saxony). Furthermore, IEEE ICC 2009 has a panel track on topics such as energy efficient communications and vehicular telecommunications. The conference will be complemented by 10 full-day workshops with 152 presentations selected from 360 peer-reviewed submissions and 19 half-day tutorials selected from about 70 proposals and covering current topics such as “Green” Communication, Network of the Future, and LTE Evolution. Besides a distinctive technical program, you will have the chance to enjoy an amazing city. Its beautiful architecture and museums reflect more than 800 years of eventful history. The vibrant social life in one of the 200+ pubs and cafes around the city center as well as the unique landscape of the Dresden-valley invite you to team up with other researchers and to discuss the future of communications. IEEE ICC 2009 offers a diverse program and will continue the successful series of previous IEEE ICCs. I am glad to welcome you in Dresden and hope you enjoy IEEE ICC 2009!

  • UMTS Forum Response to the ARCEP Consultation on the Challenges Tied to New Frequency Bands for Electronic Communication Services Access Networks
    UMTS Forum response to the ARCEP consultation on the challenges tied to new frequency bands for electronic communication services access networks The UMTS Forum represents a significant group of spectrum users, which are directly interested in the development of public mobile communication networks including UMTS/IMT-2000 and, especially, the related spectrum topics. UMTS Forum gathers many different players involved in third generation (3G) mobile communication systems, including equipment manufacturers, operators, administrations, service providers and software developers. The UMTS Forum welcomes the opportunity to respond to ARCEP public consultation on the challenges tied to new frequency bands for electronic communication services access networks. Please find below the UMTS Forum comments regarding specific aspects of this public consultation: the importance of low frequency bands for offering mobile broadband services, the role of Digital Dividend and UMTS Forum works for harmonizing a Digital Dividend sub- band. 1. Mobile Broadband Services based on 3G/UMTS are a reality today Rapid growth in the uptake of IMT-2000 services continues globally, with more than 180 commercial 3G/UMTS networks now operating commercially in around 80 countries. As of September 2007, there were over 160 million subscribers to 3G/UMTS networks. By mid-2007, more than 120 mobile operators had already deployed HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) commercially in over 60 countries, giving their customers access to even higher data rates and exciting new service possibilities. Of this total, a growing number of HSDPA networks support the higher bit rate of 3.6 Mbps. Global HSDPA subscriptions, meanwhile, had already exceeded 7 million by mid-year.

We are a carrier-led organization. This means our operator members establish requirements that drive the activities and outputs of our technical groups. We have driven the standardization of key elements of small cell technology including Iuh, FAPI, nFAPI, SON, services APIs, TR-069 evolution and the enhancement of the X2 interface. Today our members are driving solutions that include small cell/Wi-Fi integration, SON evolution and automation, virtualization of the small cell layer, driving mass adoption via multi-operator neutral host, ensuring a common approach to service APIs to drive commercialization and the integration of small cells into 5G standards evolution. The Small Cell Forum Release Program has now established business cases and market drivers for all the main use cases, clarifying market needs and addressing barriers to deployment for residential, enterprise, rural & remote, and urban small cells.

    lte WhITE PAPEr Simplifying the Migration to 4G Networks • Smooth 2G/3G to 4G migration without a “forklift” upgrade – in a single common core platform • Fast and seamless transition to Evolved Packet Core (EPC), all-IP core network that supports higher throughput, lower latency, and mobility between 3GPP and non-3GPP radio access technologies • Core network solution that optimizes backhaul • Converged mobility and policy management so operators can choose any access technology without a complete overhaul of existing IP core or IP core overlay • Intelligence in the network to deliver higher bandwidth multimedia services – interacting and understanding key elements within the multimedia core Over the past two decades, the way people communicate, stay informed, and are entertained has changed dramatically. There have been two major technologies driving this change: the Internet and mobile wireless communication. We have grown accustomed to the wealth of information available through the Internet and the mobility provided with wireless communications. Now these two forces are merging to enable the mobile Internet. With this convergence, mobile data services have grown significantly each year. However, people have a certain expectation for their Internet Solutions already deployed in the market may include many of experience that the mobile wireless environment has not fully the elements required of the 4G network, including integrated met since the speed at which they can access their services has intelligence, simplified network architecture, high bandwidth been limited.
