NETWORK DENSIFICATION Delivering on the promise, of small cells to improve coverage & capacity through massive network densification. VIEW PRODUCTS Network densification is a key driver for enabling 5G. Airspan’s network densification solutions not only provide greater coverage and capacity but also enable carriers to maximize spectral efficiency, disrupt network TCO models and dramatically reduce deployment time. With the ever-increasing demand for better performance and faster throughput, the requirement for fast, mobile data connectivity is always struggling to catch-up. As this demand is skyrocketing at an exponential rate, so is the pressure on carriers to keep up and retain customer satisfaction, all while containing costs and maintaining a healthy revenue profile. Typical carrier network topologies in the past have primarily comprised of macro base stations in the attempt to maximize range and coverage, providing the widest umbrella of coverage to an area. However, it has quickly become apparent that in order to stay competitive and in order to meet high consumer data traffic needs, carriers are finding they need to evolve their approach to providing mobile services. In order for carriers to meet their goals, Airspan Networks has developed a set of unique, small-cell solutions that help mitigate costs and boost data traffic in the network. Airspan’s small-cell solutions enable carriers to provide “Targeted Services”, densifying their network with small-cells or providing fill-in coverage where needed for a fraction of the cost of deploying additional macro base stations. Small-cell base stations offer several key advantages to help carriers accomplish their goals, including: • Lower cost points in comparison to larger cell infrastructure • All-outdoor design, eliminates the need for enclosures, air-conditioning units and other costly requirements of split indoor/outdoor deployments • Small-cell units can use existing street ‘furniture’ such as street lamps and utility poles • Exponentially increase cell capacity with in-fill and notspot locations as well at the macro cell edge where capacity often experiences a drop • State-of-the-Art SON algorithms addressing all small-cell challenges, from commissioning in minutes to dynamically minimizing interference • Smaller, quicker to deploy form factor By bringing the service closer to the user, where increased capacity is needed, an operator not only significantly boosts the capacity of the network, but also ensures a much more efficient coverage area with fewer connectivity gaps. Small Cell Backhaul One of the main concerns in deploying small cell base stations is how to get backhaul to these units in an efficient and cost-optimized manner. Since these small cells are most often deployed in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions, only a wireless NLOS backhaul solution can truly match the requirements. A small cell backhaul solution should be: 1. Low Cost 2. Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) – driving sub 6 GHz spectrum solutions 3. Space optimized 4. Enabled with carry-through, end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) 5. Resistant to interference These challenges create a unique setting where innovative backhaul solutions are necessary. Airspan has created one of the most unique solutions in the market. Not only does Airspan offer a sub 6 GHz, NLOS wireless backhaul solution, but the solution is integrated into the same unit as the 4G small cell base station. This means that operators receive a cost-optimized, diminutive space-saving, light form factor that offers the most innovative combined 4G access and backhaul solution, enabling cost savings on operating and capital expenses and leveraging the infrastructure investment. Airspan is able to offer a highly integrated, self-optimizing, self-healing, backhaul solution with end-to-end QoS, as well as advanced, proprietary, interference-mitigating technology.
