3G Auction and Service Operators Future Plans

All the nine telecom companies, which had applied to participate in the auction of radio frequency spectrum for third generation (3G) telephony, have qualified for the bidding process that will take place on 9th April,2010.

According to the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), all the nine telecom companies -- Aircel, Bharti Airtel, Etisalat DB Telecom, Idea Cellular, Reliance Telecom, S Tel, Tata Teleservices, Videocon Telecommunications and Vodafone Essar -- will participate in the auction for 3G.

Third generation telecom services allow faster connectivity than what is available now, and will enable applications such as Internet TV, video-on-demand, audio-video calls and high-speed data exchange.

Information available on the DOT website also show that 11 companies -- Bharti Airtel, Idea Cellular, Aircel, Augere Mauritius Limited, Infotel Broadband Services, Qualcomm, Reliance WiMax, Spice Internet Service Provider, Tata Communications Internet Services, Tikona Digital Networks and Vodafone Essar -- have qualified to bid for broadband wireless access (BWA) services.

According to the Notice Inviting Applications (NIA) issued Feb 25, 2010, of the 22 telecom circles, five states - Punjab, Bihar, West Bengal, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir - will have four private players for 3G spectrum auction.

Other circles, including four metros - Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai - will have three private players.

The number of slots up for auction excludes those allotted to state-run Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd and Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd, which were allotted licences last year and have since started offering 3G services in their operating circles.

The government has set Rs.3,500 crore as the base price for one 3G slot and Rs.1,750 crore for a BWA slot.

The government hopes to garner Rs.35,000 crore ($7.7 billion) from the auction.

The auction for 3G spectrum will begin April 9 and the services will start Sept 1st.

For broadband services, the auction will begin two days after the process concludes for 3G spectrum.

All are welcome to post their comments on the further development issues on 3G..That matters to everyone...

O&M Effective cost reductions with Technology Deployment.

Dear All...

In my last blog , i have been highlighting very categorically regarding the critical issues related to various technology available for Remote Cell site security management and O&M opex reduction priorities.Whilst selecting and implementing the state of art technology for such usage, we may also emphases to provide the types of capital equipments towards Passive Infra equipments available which must be Technical compatible according to the flex design provided by the supplier/OEM's,Providing steady floor Load sharing designs of BTS Shelters for Anchor as well shared cell sites ,Telecom/Transmission Towers and DG deployments are the major issues for fast installations & erection process .Primarily, Operational cost towards DG pilferage and site up link/down link issues are very cortical& important to resolve for the quality of the services.
The basic idea to optimize the O&M functions with effective man management service selection of right kind of Hardwares interface etc with PIU and standalone and Shared BTS sites,enabling them to run independently without any manual surveillance & intervention ,which is directly relate to the site functional efficiency at all times.

Please send your remarks and valuable suggestions on the methodology to improve the quality hardware induction,Cost reduction of the BTS sites either Passive or Active solutions are concerned for various type of Tower technologies Erection, Foundation,Installation of electrical,EB and including site acquisition process , Shelters,OD enclosers,Cage/Miniature,Tower erected type solutions,Air/water/Natural cooled enclosures sites .

Critics remarks,Best suggestions on up coming technologies are most welcome!~!!

Innovations in Civil Foundation and Power Back up for BTS Sites.

I do hope, my last blog on Passive Network solution is well in line for the discussions.I have a serious presumption regarding the Tower business,BTS Sites & technologies like Wind Turbine Power back ups for BTS sites and very effective time saving Civil foundations state of art tech. Now,we are applying at various sites,We made it possible for such innovations to reach India.An BSNL approved Tower company M/s SME,Hyderabad based manufacturing unit is now launching both the technology in India for faster cell site solutions, efficient power back up wind turbine 24x7 rated basically for Anchor as well Multi share BTS sites in India.

We are supporting such innovations ,our group of technocrat is finding it very user friendly, simple in manner and cost effective solutions for faster Tower erection ,Civil foundation, 24x7 Power back up facility.The Capex/Opex ratio is drastically reduced by putting Wind Turbine technology,which adheres one time cost to the running project,long term operational cost is almost negligible.Pay back is unimaginable.Ask for Proto/Demo at your BTS sites.

Passive Network is also supported by Multi Beam Single 880 M Hz Band technology which is enabling operators to erect & replace the existing GBT/RTT Antennas very fast with six sector GSM antennas,Rf coordinates are totally complied to the existing structure,just a discussion is required to do so and thereafter up linking the sites without any hassle.What else is required??, To prove that New Civil Foundation methods wich is clamed to have reduced timings by 1/4 times,Meant for remote/urban location based green field BTS sites are now are up linked in a faster mode. Indian Metros are essentially required to dismental the junk sites due to regulatory matters and therefor fastest way to uplink existing site is with better Band width approach /Multi beam forming technology (Six sector Technology)with High capacity signal , better functions in GSM/CDMA domain ,No call drop issues makes Passive Network very user and operators friendly at all time to come.

Requesting for further discussions on our exclusive Parameters for your BOQ inquiries...Welcome!!!
