June 3rd CPD China conference in DC

So what all the challenges of 5G management oil

Spectrum

If data and compute

And cost

That's really what it boils down to

I'm health is not an issue I can explain that he wants to see me off because you know health is not an issue with

Talk to you even though there's been an hour to push that it is

Very quickly on the subject to Spectrum management

You have to understand the difference between wavelength and frequency

Wavelength is the length of a sine wave

A frequency is how often

That

Effectively occurs in a given period of time

Why does this matter essentially the longer-wavelength keep got further it will travel

The last carrying capacity it has

Higher the frequency of God

The more carrying capacity it has

Play one goes too far and it requires a lot more energy to push it

So this means that essentially what you want is the best of both worlds you want to be in the middle of my Spectrum

What issue is the everywhere else in the world

And that is where the 5G patents occurring

But that part of the spectrum

When using some simplification is simplification see it for expediency but

That part of the Spectrum in the u.s. is currently controlled by the Department of Defense

So there's some debate about using a completely different part of the spectrum code Minimates wife

The millimeter wife

Is is much higher frequency it involves a lot more power use

But involves a lot more frequent towers and implementations which drives up your network infrastructure cost

So

Role of those things you know there are issues that that's just the Spectrum piece

So what's the threat

Well

It's dumped because the one you license is it currently apportioned

In in in effectively every Major Market

Is the end up going out to a bid process where The Usual Suspects come along

And they fit up the value of these licenses

And then they get that Spectrum

I'm Womack typically results in

Is you have whole rural areas completely undeserved because obviously to recover the investment in license

The investors

Focus all their efforts on Regional kind of urban dense markets where they can recover the most Revenue

It means the prices tend to stay high because it's the same people bidding for the licenses all the time

It means spectrums underutilized because they tend to focus the old on Sudden Pockets without get the best bang for the

Buck

And den and also means the same upright his end up rushing into the welcoming arms of the Chinese

To provide very low-cost Network infrastructure equipment

So if you paid through the nose for the Spectrum

Then all that's left in your in your cash Kitty is is very limited amount of money to pay for your network

Infrastructure

To the Chinese
