Three Use Scenarios for Future Digitized Society
14.3.2016 3
The role of local connectivity is ever increasing.
5G Is Not Just Radio Technology
• Technology boost is a key enabler for
– New services
– New ways for spectrum sharing policies and
using higher frequencies
– Creating totally new business potential through
major changes in 5G networks operation.
14.3.2016 5
Although radio technologies are evolving fast,
probably the biggest changes are business models related.

Context & Insentives

The owner of the space must have a role
and insentive in building, operating and
maintaining the network as well as
creating context related content and
services.
How Operator Roles May Change in 5G?
• Wide coverage area expensive to maintain– Insentives for operators? Emergence of public operators?
• Lot of traffic in densely placed small cells– Network maintanance difficult in indoors
• Spectrum regulation likely to go towards shared spectrum– Spectrum and operator business less regulated
• Content will be changing much faster and lot of content
relevant only to the context will be there; users/machines
generate lot of content– Dynamic local caching to be shared by any operator customer
• Access and content provisioning will finally be separated– YouTube and Netflix have already done that in practise!
• Emergence of new local micro operators?

Micro Operator - mOP
• A virtual operator does not have own infrastructure but
has own customer base.
• A micro operator (mOP) has own infrastructure but not
necessarily own customer base.
• Revenue models for mOPs are not based on monthly
fees of bytes.– Part of property offering – inclusion to rent
– Part of customer service model
– Improving the efficiency of public service
• Possible only via changes in spectrum regulation:
– How to make the entry to market attractive via low entry costs
– Would boost infrastructure development necessary for future IoT

University of Oulu Builds Future Wireless Campus
• University wide platform for research, education,
daily life and business acceleration including:– Open technology and service development platform for
collaborators;
– Big data collection, analysis and utilization;
– Future wireless campus;
– University wide navigation solution;
– Rich content based interactive teaching;
– 5G radio prototyping;
– Crowd sourcing based service creation;
– IoT applications with aggressive business acceleration.
Collaborators in The Finnish 5G Flagship
Four major parts in the
national testnetwork:
- CWC Open 5G Network
- VTT 5G testnetwork
- Aalto 5G testnetwork
- Ylivieska LSA
testnetwork
5G Test Network Finland (www.5gtnf.fi) programme composed
of 4 projects runnign at all major citieds.
Oulu Open 5G Offerings
• Real-life Lab for testing 5G portfolio, New Services,
Applications and Business Models
• Current status– Outdoor & indoor coverage built @ 2.6GHz. 3.5GHz soon to be added
– Health Lab at University Hospital connected mid-2016. Other institutions on need
basis
– Commercial EPC for 100k users under installation. Interconnection to other networks
available
– Mobile edge computing for service development and Big Data analysis Q3/16
– IoT extension with ~1000 nodes enabling future wireless campus planned for Q4/16
– Q1/17
– 100 testphones currently; target to offer SIM for students and personnel to enable
testing with 15-20000 users at the campus area
