Ever since its inception four decades ago, telecommunications fiber optic cables have been one of the best things that happened to Nigeria’s telecommunication industry. With the installations gradually helping Nigeria’s telecom operators to tackle the challenges of poor network...

This paper studies the causes and consequences of the adoption of technology by hospitals and public emergency response systems, focusing on Basic and Enhanced 911 services. Basic 911 allows people within a given locality to access specialized call-takers and ambulance dispatchers using the...

Der Trend zur Digitalisierung in der Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft und in öffentlichen Institutionen in Deutschland bedingt damit einhergehend einen zunehmenden Bedarf nach leistungsfähigen Funkdiensten für vielfältige digitale Anwendungen von unterschiedlichen Nutzerkreisen. Die daraus...

Die Erwartung ist, dass der zukünftige Mobilfunkstandard 6G im kommenden Jahrzehnt eine neue Ära einleiten wird, bei der Milliarden von Dingen und Menschen eine Vielzahl an digitalen Informationen erzeugen und kommunizieren werden. Der ab 2030 anvisierte Rollout von 6G wird sich mit...

This work aims to contribute to the debate on the fixed wireless versus fixed line broadband access solutions by focusing on scenarios offering Gbps level broadband access. More specifically, we performed a techno-economic analysis on the cost, performance (in the term of download speed) and...

Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are of particular interest for telecommunication companies that can significantly affect the interaction of economic agents. As a result of the growth in the number of connected devices, the introduction of cloud services and business applications it became...

This report examines the competitive effects of Hybrid Mobile Network Operators (HMNOs) — mobile virtual network operators that rely in large part on self-deployed facilities — on the market for mobile wireless services and recommends that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) broaden...

Broadband internet expansion is a topic of widespread discussion in Germany right now. But the country still has not met its own targets. Almost 100 percent of households are supplied with broadband connections with up to six megabits per second, yet Germany has lots of room to catch up when it...

In this paper we study how the coexistence of access regulations for legacy (copper) and fiber networks shapes the incentives to invest in network infrastructure. To this end, we develop a theoretical model explaining investment incentives by incumbent telecom operators and heterogeneous...

The promotion of widespread, affordable, and high-quality broadband is a prerequisite for the digital transformation of economies and societies. Foreseeing the role of broadband as an accelerator of economic, social and cultural development, the OECD adopted the Council Recommendation on...

Since the start of the COVID-19 crisis, demand for broadband communication services has soared, with some operators experiencing as much as a 60% increase in Internet traffic compared to before the crisis. In the medium term, regulators could stimulate broadband providers to deploy more fibre...

"Our digital world is increasingly mobile. All mobile communication rests upon access to one invisible, essential element: the radio spectrum. In Frequencies, Gregory Taylor and Catherine Middleton bring together diverse national perspectives to explore the current and future state of spectrum...

Las telecomunicaciones se basan firmemente en un conjunto de teoremas fundamentales. Teorema de Fourier, que permite tratar cualquier forma de onda como si fuese una sumatoria de ondas senos y cosenos. Teorema de muestreo de Nyquist, mediante el cual un único canal puede llevar más de una...

This article explores the ways in which communications technologies influence the shape and form of cities and large metropolitan regions. After reviewing the scholarly literature, the author suggests that there is a need to consider the ways in which telecommunications can lead to both the...

This study realizes the benefits of optical fiber broadband as an economic stimulation thus it analyzes the determinants of optical fiber share in total broadband connections in OECD countries with the focus on the demand-driven factors and the government roles as the stimulator, the regulator...

This paper presents an analysis of competition in wireless telecommunications that models the interdependence between spectrum availability, network infrastructure deployment, the generation of transmission technology, average traffic levels and service quality. We show that the constraints on...

This project examines how market signals in the form of pricing information can be introduced into spectrum management in order to optimally guide not only assignment, but also determinations concerning type of use, emissions characteristics and exclusivity. We construct a mathematical model to...
