3G Network Expense Breakdown Example
Notes:
• Urban morphology (10K Pops/SqKm)
• Wireless penetration: 50%
• Operator market share: 25%
• Local call termination charges and long distance transport costs are not included in the network expense calculations
• Spectrum available: 2X10MHz @ 800MHz
• All network costs should be considered when comparing alternatives• All major costs increase with number of sites; most are not Air Interface-specific
