LTE Required Regulation in Indonesia (proposal)

1800 MHz Neutral Technology implementation

1800 MHz band re-arrangement

to have Contiguous Block for each operator

by considering number of Subscriber an operator can

have, more bandwidth is needed to ensure high quality

network performance both in 2G and in LTE

network performance both in 2G and in LTE

1800 MHz benefits

Ecosystem: 76 commercial network (from all 175 LTE

deployment), 490+ devices, potential global trend

Spectrum: Available range for number of operators

LTE Spectrum Assessment in Indonesia

1800MHz is TELKOMSELs strategic spectrum for 1st LTE Implementation

Indonesia is ready for LTE since today by re-farming 1800 MHz
