End-To-End Perspective
• Network requirements to scale new andcomplementary services
• Devices and clients supported end-to-end
• Brand name recognition – risks versusopportunities
• Maintenance of infrastructureand applications – central versuslocal approach
• Target market segments and servicedifferentiation
ERICSSON CDMAALWAYS BEST CONNECTED • OCTOBER 2003 • 8
• ABC service test-bed deployed at UCSD campus
• Several projects using/researching the ABC concept
• ABC activities pursued or planned at present– ABC PANs and ABC MANETs
(Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks)
– Combined Mobile IP and session layer mobility
– Capacity aggregation over multiple networks

Wireless Operators and Enterprise Accounts: Example
• Capturing a group of high-end subscribersfor voice and data
• Targeted services for an increasinglymobile workforce
• Leveraging existing subscriber databaseand network infrastructure
• Reduce churn of existing high end –most profitable – subscribers
• Optimize capacity in wirelesswide-area network WLAN IS BEST

Standards Status: WLAN Interworking with 3G Networks
• 3GPP2
– Stage one in final review
– 3 interworking proposals in stage two (Ericsson, Huawei, Lucent)
– Following evolution in 3GPP
• 3GPP
– Stage two in final review
– Six interworking scenarios described
• Common billing and customer care
• 3GPP system-based access control and charging
• Access to 3GPP system PS services
• Service continuity
• Seamless services
• Access to 3GPP system CS services

ABC activity
• Multi-access solution sold to accounts representing CDMA2000, GSM and WCDMA networks across the globe
• Several ABC projects contracted/completed with customers from the wireless operator segment as well as the car industry
ERICSSON CDMAALWAYS BEST CONNECTED • OCTOBER 2003 • 16
ABC Summary
• Complementary services are rolling out
• First multi-access infrastructure being shipped
• ABC networks and services evaluated by arange of companies
• Wireless operator has great opportunity toleverage subscriber relationships
• WLAN is one complementary serviceto differentiate service offering
ERICSSON CDMAALWAYS BEST CONNECTED • OCTOBER 2003 • 17
ABC Summary (CONTINUED)
• New actors likely to enter arena forcommunication services
• As complementary networks expand,maintenance becomes critical
• Brand recognition is best protectedthrough network quality control
• Ad-hoc, semi-proprietary andnetwork solutions are likely todrive the evolution of ABC
• Traditional standards bodies arebeing used to secure harmonizedinterworking
