Fixed Broadband Market ExaminationPositive NPV
Urban and Suburban
• Site Density similar to Mobile Network• Coverage Avg: 3 - 7 sq/km• 50% of 20% uptake of larger numbers• 800MHz offers 225% “coverage” site
advantage vs. 2.6GHz • BUT, 800MHz offers 25% “capacity” site
advantage vs. 2.6GHz
Rural • Site Density applied to Fixed ONLY• Coverage Avg = 400-600 sq/km• Outdoor CPE: limited path loss,
more power uplink• 2600 and 800 nearly the same at
the lowest densities
