BELL’S TELEPHONE Alexander Graham Bell, keenly interested in the education of deaf people, invented the microphone and in 1876 his "electrical speech machine," ie today’s telephone. Bell set up the first telephone exchange in New Haven, Connecticut in By 1884, long distance connections were made between Boston, Massachusetts and New York City. Since his death in 1922, the telecommunication industry has undergone an amazing revolution. Today, non-hearing people are able to use a special display telephone to communicate. Bell's "electrical speech machine" paved the way for the Information Superhighway. Fiber Optics are improving the quality and speed of data transmission.

Broadband Global Status Universal broadband service has become a national priority 578 million worldwide broadband subscribers as of December, 2010 Consumer enthusiasm for broadband service. By 2013 the number of global broadband subscribers will surpass 1 billion. The growing popularity of bandwidth-intensive applications, such as watching online video, using IP- based telephony services, and downloading music files, is spurring global demand for broadband Internet connections.

Broadband Global Status…contd. Globally 90% use DSL, mobile wireless, and cable modem access technologies. Mobile wireless broadband at 20% is the second largest access technology after DSL In near future the number of households with multiple broadband connections will increase tremendously. The multiple household connection are expected to have a wired broadband access technology (DSL, Cable Modem ) along with a mobile wireless broadband connection.

India Broadband Status Second largest telecom penetration, world’s highest monthly additions Mn. Subscribers Jan 2011….Wireless , Wireline Active subscribers in VLR Mn Mn. Broadband subscribers( 256 Kbps) as on January % increase in broadband penetration increases GDP of a developing Country by 1.38%.(World Bank) TRAI proposed National Broadband Backbone with around Rs 17,000 Crore laying fibre cables from USO The penetration would also generate 20 million jobs

Broadband in FINLAND Broadband fundamental right to all citizens Already available 1 Mbps to 90% citizens Planned 100 Mbps by 2013 for all citizens Funded by Government

Broadband in CHINA Premier Wen Jaibao has urged the acceleration of triple network convergence in China at a State Council conference on Jan. Chinese broadcasters are no longer banned from providing value-added telecom services and basic communication and Internet services, like broadband, as in the past. Telecom operators will be now permitted to operate TV and radio production and transmission. There was also mention of subsidy provisions and preferential tax policies from the State Council to further jump start the process.

Broadband in CHINA….contd. The Prime Minister said the £300 million project would see every family in the country linked to their children's schools to access progress reports on attainment, behaviour and other needs. We want every family to become a broadband family, and we want every home linked to a school. For those finding it difficult to afford this, today I can announce the nationwide rollout of our home access programme to get laptops and broadband at home for 270,000 families,'' 'That is why we have said that from 2010 all secondary schools - and from 2012 all primary schools - will guarantee reporting online to parents.

Broadband in USA National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), along with the Rural Utilities Service (RUS) grant $7.2 billion in Broadband stimulus money for un served and underserved areas Net Neutrality Preference given to those providing wholesale access to their networks at reasonable rates. Speed "provision of two-way data transmission within advertised speeds of at least 768 kbps downstream and 200 kbps upstream to end users." Reasoning FCC says it is most "technology-neutral option.“ "underserved" means where half or fewer of the households are able to obtain wired broadband.

USA Broadband Stimulus USA stimulus plans asked for net neutrality, due to which all major existing operators( 85% of existing lines) did not applied. Another factor not to apply was fear of stringent regulations and peep into business practices.

Canada Canada is now jumping into the broadband stimulus game. Govt. announced in July, 2009 "Broadband Canada: Connecting Rural Canadians." As part of Canada's Economic Action Plan, which gives $225 million to Industry Canada for the development and implementation of a strategy to extend and improve broadband coverage. Broadband had penetrated 94 percent of Canadian households, yet 22 percent of rural households are still without broadband access. Federal Government support up to 50 percent of cost for network equipment purchases and hardware/software upgrades, as well as long-term network capacity investment costs.

Broadband in UK The British Govt. plans to deliver 2Mbit/s broadband to all citizens by Govt. will have ‘an independently produced guiding technical arbitration on the timing and cost of 900MHz refarming' Only Vodafone UK and O2 utilise this spectrum which is faster and more robust in terms of delivering mobile broadband, than the 1800MHz spectrum used by the other UK operator Orange, T-Mobile and 2. The refarming of the 800MHz spectrum, which will be freed up with the switch from analogue to digital television, will happen too late for the three 1800MHz operators to help in driving the Government's broadband plans.

Broadband in Korea South Korea are already providing broadband at speeds up to 100Mbit/s.

Broadband in India Govt. declared 2004 as Broadband Year with 20 Mn. by 2010, but performance dismissal. Dichotomy-Govt. monopoly to privatization and now for broadband again globally asking Govt. to invest. USO funding targeted for operators Re thinking needed for assistance to user rather than provider Real implementation rather than statements Voice over Internet, interconnect Local manufacturing development

Beware of Technology Battles Telecom is characterized by Hype and Technology debates. At any given time there must be a live technology debate in telecom era. The question for network operators is no longer which technology is best--WiMAX or LTE--but which application will compel consumers and enterprises to upgrade to 4G. Will it be video? Or will it just be more bandwidth for the always-on, always-available wireless broadband connection that consumers have come to expect?

Hype v/s reality Internet speed….India Govt. says 256 Kbps, vendors talk of 2 Mbps….as per TRAI no body even gets 256 Kbps. We hear faster speed…but what and under what conditions…no body declares There is no one in the world who knows for sure where we are heading or how we will get there. Hype: LTE will provide about 50 Mbps data services. Fact: Only in a lab where there is a 20 MHz wide LTE system and there is only one user.

Recognition of Fixed Broadband Google during February, 2010 announced plans to build and test ultra high-speed upto 1 GBps broadband networks in a small number of trial locations across the United States to serve 50,000 to 500,000 subscribers. It will be on principles of net neutrality.high-speed upto 1 GBps broadband networks Goggle aims to try out new ways to build and operate fiber networks and share what they learn with the world.

Convergence Tremendous convergence of the Information Technology is happening now a days. There was a time when handsets were used to make phone calls and talk to the people and desktops and laptops were used to surf the net. Now, the handset is being used via 3G technology, to do video conferencing, to talk to each other, to have night chats on handsets and we are using mobile to surf the net. There are more opportunities, now, for youth to find new and dynamic ideas, to be more creative, to participate in this ever changing dynamic sector.

We talk of Speed in Telecom? JOHANNESBURG South Africa 11-month-old pigeon took one hour and eight minutes to fly the 50 miles from Unlimited IT's offices near Pietermaritzburg to the coastal city of Durban with a data card strapped to its leg. Including downloading, the transfer took two hours, six minutes and 57 seconds — the time it took for only four percent of the data to be transferred using a line provided by Telkom. news-weird_news/ news-weird_news/ September, 2009

Priorities for World Global Poverty & inequality Inspite of quite phenomenal growth during last decade Almost half of the world’s population lives below the poverty line The lower 50% possess less than 1% of the world’s wealth Over a billion people suffer from chronic malnutrition Three billion do not have access to clean water or proper sanitation Along with poverty, inequality has risen dramatically and dangerously The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), adopted in 2000, were meant to solve these issues by Not much hope to achieve that. Climate Change… A SERIOUS ISSUE While climate change has been described as the greatest challenge (and threat) mankind has ever had to face, it could also be the greatest opportunity. It will ultimately stand out as the test of whether humanity can engage in collaborative survival or is doomed to conflictual destruction. Sustainable and inclusive development is possible. Are we ready to work for it?
