It is a concise, 24-page briefing on the technical options for managing traffic on 3G/4G networks, following on from earlier posts I've written on the diverging solutions that are emerging.
It outlines the different roles of:
- WiFi Offload
- Femtocell Offload
- Radio network enhancements (including signalling management, macro network offload and r packet scheduling and prioritisation)
- Compression, adaptation and transcoding
- Device-based traffic management techniques (including compression, rate-adaptation and network-sharing)
- Contention management & tuning TCP/IP
- Deep packet inspection, policy-based traffic shaping & differential charging
- End-to-end service assurance and monitoring
- Caching, multicast & CDNs
- Congestion APIs
(Note: this is not a full analyst "strategy report", but a short document to introduce the expanding variety of technical options emerging to solve the "capacity crunch". It does not include detailed analysis of vendor positions or the minutiae of architectures. Further details on business models are covered in other research reports)
I'm am going to be at the LTE event in Amsterdam over the next two days (ash-cloud permitting) and I will be setting up a more fancy electronic document-delivery system at the end of the week, and talking through the analysis in more depth.
However, if you're desperate to get the research paper immediately, I've set up a "get it now" button for instant purchases which then go straight to the PDF download page. Prices start at US$350 for 1-5 users, plus VAT for UK/EU customers.
