New Communications Paradigm

4

For hundreds of thousands of years human beings communicated using sound and sight The phone invented in 1876 limited

people to voice communication

A hundred years later limited visual

communication becomes available

over ISDN lines

Still no critical mass for visual communication Today – Critical mass is around the corner

New Communication ParadigmBrief History of Visual Communication

Leading Telecom Service Providers committed to 3G Network vendors and focus on delivering 3G Handset manufacturers deliver 3G enabled

handsets Millions of customers are already using 3G networks

3G is a reality!

New Communication Paradigm 3G as Critical mass to Visual Communication

New Communication Paradigm Critical mass to Visual Communication

3G provides the high bandwidth High bandwidth enables high quality visual

communication Key issue for high bandwidth is visual

communication and content

Imagine…

Imagine real estate agents showing a house to a prospective buyer who is relocating to the area, while the

prospective buyer is still in another country

Imagine a paramedic consulting with the HQ’s doctor when handling a gravely injured patient on the road

Imagine a travel agent speaking face-to-face with potential customers showing them a film of the resort they are

considering going to

20

Imagine…

Real-time visual communications in contact centres is about adding a new dimension to telesales and

services

Imagine calling your insurance agency to describe and record the details of a car accident by 3G

videoImagine all of the above does not require a

revolution…

Imagine giving the ability for home-telemedicine nurses to show the patients how to use the

equipment, how many words can be saved?!

21

Imagine if you couldhave it all today…

22

What can it look like?

23

The reporter arrives on the scene of the incident

The reporter sends real-time visuals from the scene of the incident, directly to the news room

The newsroom reports directly from the field, showing viewers real-time visuals of the news breaking event

Wanting to relay a breaking story to the station, the reporter decides not to wait for the film crew but to relay live ad-hoc visual communications

Ad-hoc Reporting from the Field

24

The doctor has subscribed to an on-line professionalconsulting center

•The doctor logs-in to the consultation center Website•The log-in information is verified and an agent calls back to the doctor•Using a standard telephone for audio and the PC for real-time visual communications, the doctor can see the agent and share data collaboration capabilities

With professional consultation services the doctor can receive immediateassistance with medical issues and solve problems within minutes

A pedestrian walking down the street comes across a thief, tryingto break into a parked car

On-the-Spot Appraisal Services

A car accident has just taken place, the driver responsible forthe accident calls in to the appraisal services call center for an on-the-spot evaluation of the damage

With visual communications the agent at the center can record the damages and then send the report by way of video streaming tothe insurance company

Ability to easily and centrally manage the network services and

platforms

Services need to be managed efficiently and economically

The Making of a New World Manageability

31

Service needs to reach as many potential customers as possible expanding potential

market.

Connects existing and future, networks, protocols, and endpoints intoa single communications system

Challenges

42

Challenges for the vendors

Enabling customized and off-the-shelf applications of VAS

Providing network APIs towards partner application providers

Hiding the details from the application and user Signaling protocols (RTSP, 3G-324M, SIP, RTSP, H.323, H.320..) Media type (Codec, bit rate, resolution, frame rate…) Interoperability issues (vendors, models, software versions…)

Providing application primitives Call control (initiate session, disconnect, authorize etc) Media Processing (Picture in Picture, Text Overlay etc) User Interaction (DTMF, UI etc) Managing and Scheduling of resources (bandwidth, platform resources etc)

43

Challenges - cont’d

Modularity according to the required functionality Utilizing different network components:

• a gateway if protocol/network conversion is required• real time audio and video processing blades if required• network access elements (e.g. ISUP) if required

Scalability Support for thousands of concurrent sessions Just add components to scale up No Chassis size limitation Entry level systems

Summary

Endless options for new services We are on the verge of mass market

deployment BUT, there are still a few technology hurdles

on the way…
