2.- The Future Of Fiber Optics? It's Sapphire.
Clemson University researchers are taking common materials to uncommon places by transforming
easily obtainable and affordable materials into fiber.
“We have used a highly purified version of beach sand (silica) for fiber for the last 40 years,” notes John
Ballato, director of the Center for Optical Materials Science and Engineering Technologies at Clemson.
“As a matter of fact, the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for the development of silica optical
fibers. However, while silica has done remarkably well over time, it is now being pushed to its limits for
faster and cheaper data and new functionality.”
It has gotten to the point where there is so much light packed in fiber cable that the silica material
essentially can’t handle the intensity and has actually begun interacting and rebelling.
“At high power, the light causes the atoms of the material to vibrate more violently and those vibrations
convert some of the light energy into sound energy which restricts the ability of the fiber to carry more
power,” says Ballato. “This, in turn, lessens the amount of light that can travel through the fiber, which
2. fam’s teleco news (Año3-Nº5/Agosto 2012) 2/8
limits the amount of information that can be sent for telecommunications uses and power for high-energy
laser applications.”
The demand for stronger and more durable fiber material is greater than ever and will only increase with
technological advancement. Clemson researchers are focusing on providing a material solution for fiber
optics, especially one that can be sold commercially. Their goal is to take a robust, affordable and easily
accessible material that can take the brunt of greater intensity and convert that material into a fiber.
The Power Of Sapphire
Ballato and his team found that sapphire possesses extraordinary properties that make it exceptionally
valuable for high power lasers in which the light intensity interacts with sound waves in
the glass and leads to diminished power-handling capabilities
“Sapphire is new and different in this sense because we’re able to use a low-cost and widely used
commodity as a fiber,” Ballato explains. “Sapphire is scalable, acceptable and is a material that people
don’t think about when it comes to fiber optics. The problem is that sapphire’s crystalline structure is not
amenable to making into optical fiber using commercially accepted methods.”
Ballato actually developed the sapphire fiber to withstand greater intensity and be more useful for high-
energy applications than typical commercial fibers.
"Ballato's recent results with sapphire fibers represent a paradigm-shifting development in the field of fiber
optics," adds Siddarth Ramachandran, associate professor in the electrical and computer engineering at
Boston University and an expert in the field. "Materials long considered to be used only in the realm of
free-space optics can now be exploited in fiber geometries, which enable long interaction lengths and
novel nonlinear optical effects."
“This research is paving the way for everyday commodities to be imagined for technological uses such as
fiber optics,” Ballato concludes. “We're performing additional studies with sapphire and other materials
that have similar effects for fiber.”

3.- Servicios de voz de siguiente generación: VoLTE y HD.
Si han estado siguiendo los lanzamientos de LTE —si leen frecuentemente TeleSemana.com la
respuesta es afirmativa— sabrán que en los primeros lanzamientos, en países como Suecia en 2010, se
argumentaba que la falta de dispositivos y la propia naturaleza de LTE, pensada para datos a altas
velocidades, la voz no era ni prioritaria ni necesaria. Sin embargo, la discusión sobre los mecanismos
para habilitar los servicios de voz en esta red han seguido avanzando a medida que se llevaban a cabo
despliegues masivos con la tecnología en Estados Unidos, Corea del Sur y Japón. Y así hemos llegado a
la solución de voz sobre LTE (VoLTE) y a soluciones que permiten pasar de VoLTE a las llamadas de
voz en GSM y 3G sin interrupción (Circuit Switch Fall Back, CSFB).
3. fam’s teleco news (Año3-Nº5/Agosto 2012) 3/8
A su vez, algunos jugadores del mercado han propuesto que se mejore la calidad de los servicios de voz
a través de las redes 2G y 3G con lo que se conocería como voz en HD, porque sus estudios
demuestran que las mejoras en la calidad del audio aumentan el número de minutos utilizados en este
servicio al que se le atribuye ya cierta decadencia. Pero, ¿qué pasaría si la VoLTE con tecnología HD
ofreciera ventajas con respecto a los servicios de voz tradicionales? ¿Provocaría que los servicios de voz
en LTE incrementaran su importancia?
Parece que la respuesta la tienen los datos que nos ofrece el operador móvil SK Telecom en Corea del
Sur, que acaba de anunciar el lanzamiento de servicios VoLTE con HD y los anuncia como “Voz en HD”.
Según el operador, su nuevo servicio de voz tiene un codec capaz de gestionar 2,2 veces mayor ancho
de banda de frecuencia para los servicios de voz que las redes 3G. Además, la conexión de las llamadas
se produce entre menos de 0,25 segundos a 2,5 segundos, lo que supone una reducción de entre dos y
20 veces los tiempos de conexión de una llamada de voz 3G, ya que estas redes suelen necesitar de
una media de cinco segundos.
Para acceder a los servicios de voz en HD de SK Telecom los usuarios no sólo deben tener un plan de
datos LTE, sino un dispositivo habilitado con la capacidad de voz en HD. El operador por ahora ofrece
el Galaxy S3 LTE de Samsung con esta característica.
Y aunque el servicio de voz HD parezca una rareza, hace un año Global Suppliers Association (GSA)
aseguraba que por aquel entonces ya había 26 países que ofrecían servicios de voz en HD.
Prácticamente todos los fabricantes de dispositivos están comprometidos con la utilización de HD en sus
dispositivos.
La novedad de SK Telecom es que su servicio HD es a través de VoLTE y no a través de las redes 2G y
3G, como ofrecen el resto de operadores con una oferta de voz HD. Los otros dos operadores móviles
del mercado, KT y LG U+ planean lanzar VoLTE con HD en las próximas semanas.

4.- World’s First RF Vector Signal Transceiver Redefines Instrumentation.
AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 7, 2012 – NIWeek – National Instruments today introduced the world’s first RF
vector signal transceiver (VST), the NI PXIe-5644R, and with it, a new class of software-designed
instrumentation. This software-centric architecture represents a new era in which engineers and scientists
can use LabVIEW to tailor open, field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-based hardware for their specific
needs.
“A quarter-century ago, NI redefined instrumentation with LabVIEW system design software, and now we
are doing it again with our vector signal transceiver,” said Dr. James Truchard, president, CEO and
cofounder of National Instruments. “When we first started our company, we envisioned the central role
4. fam’s teleco news (Año3-Nº5/Agosto 2012) 4/8
software would play in instrumentation, and now we are truly seeing LabVIEW revolutionize the way
engineers approach RF design and test.”
“At Qualcomm Atheros, instrumentation flexibility and to-the-pin control are critical for keeping our RF test
process as efficient as possible, and we’re pleased with the performance gains we’ve seen when testing
with NI’s new vector signal transceiver,” said Doug Johnson, director of engineering at Qualcomm
Atheros. “The NI PXIe-5644R provides us freedom and flexibility in the way we develop our 802.11ac
solutions for our customers, and has significantly improved our test throughput.”
Product Features
• Up to 6.0 GHz frequency coverage and 80 MHz instantaneous RF bandwidth
• Industry-leading performance for testing the latest wireless standards such as 802.11ac and LTE
• More than 10 times faster measurements than comparable solutions
• Can replace multiple traditional instruments at a fraction of the cost and size
• Built on FPGA technology programmable with LabVIEW
• Easily expands to support multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) configurations or parallel testing
in a single PXI chassis

5.- Analyst: Small cells benefit 3G networks more than LTE.
• The focus on small cells for LTE networks is being challenged by a new report from research firm
Strategy Analytics.
• The firm maintains that small cells, both pico cells and metro cells, bring the biggest immediate
financial and performance benefits to 2.5G and 3G networks. The reports claims that small cells
are a very cost-competitive route to upgrading 3G macro cells, and that pico or metro cells have a
25 per cent lower Total Cost of Operations (TCO).
• In the report, the research firm maintains that while small cells need to adopt the all-IP
architecture of LTE, their most immediate value to operators will be in countries where LTE
spectrum availability or deployment is still two to three years away, and where high cost 2.5G and
3G infrastructure is in need of immediate capacity upgrade with a small cell Heterogeneous
Network, or HetNet.
• "In this new analysis small cells cost significantly less than 3G macro cells for the same coverage
area but slightly more than new 4G/LTE macro cells," noted Sue Rudd, director service provider
analysis with the market research firm. "This is largely due to the 'consumer electronics-like'
vulnerability of very large numbers of small cell sites that require installation and ongoing
maintenance."

9.- Mobile cloud services sustain revenue and growth in new LTE networks.
As mobile operators invest heavily to migrate to LTE networks, they face a major financial challenge in
the near-term. The number of LTE-based services — and the profits they bring in — will require a long-
term horizon to achieve a return on investment (ROI).
6. fam’s teleco news (Año3-Nº5/Agosto 2012) 6/8
To speed up their ROI, operators can support an LTE business model with revenues from other services
using the same technologies and infrastructure. One of the most promising ways to do that is to satisfy
the growing enterprise need for mobile cloud connectivity.
Enter the cloud
According to Big Data, a 2011 report by the McKinsey Global Institute, data volume worldwide is growing
at a rate of 40%, year-over-year. At the same time, IT spending is growing by only about 5%.
This trend promotes adopting cloud services. It helps achieve the necessary compute and storage scale,
while flexibly applying resources only where and when the enterprise needs it.
Connecting wirelessly to the cloud is an ideal way for enterprises to extend their access to the cloud. It
makes the most of storage and compute consumption through expanded access and applications. It also
improves ingestion—uploading “big data” into the cloud through mobile devices and machine-to-machine
(M2M) connections.
The LTE network lends itself well to cloud connectivity because it:
• provides high-bandwidth connections
• is IP- and Ethernet-oriented, the technologies used to connect to the cloud and within data
centers
• offers tools that operators didn't have in 2G and 3G (such as more granular ability to manage
traffic flows and a better, DPI-based view of traffic running on the network)
• features low latency, which is vital to the small flows and sessions that characterise M2M
communications.
The growing M2M market also presents huge opportunities for operators. Potential new services are as
numerous and diverse as the industries using wireless M2M. These industries include agriculture, health
care, construction, financial, retail, government, education and utilities.
A virtuous cycle of growth
The rise of both cloud services and LTE creates a virtuous cycle. Cloud services continue to grow, which
helps operators sustain their LTE business model. That growth enables them to accelerate LTE
investments. Then operators can support new types of enterprise services, including cloud-based
applications.
To take full advantage of this opportunity, operators have to deploy the right backhaul infrastructure. In
addition to IP awareness and content awareness, the right backhaul network can leverage the technical
advantages that LTE presents:
• flattened architecture that helps distribute compute and storage resources
• seamless migration from 2G and 3G for various physical mediums and networking protocols

10.- Realizan la primera transmisión óptica de 1 Terabit del mundo.
El operador internacional TeliaSonera e Infinera anuncian el éxito de la primera transmisión óptica de 1
Terabit del mundo a través de supercanales de 500 Gigabits por segundo (Gb/s).
Diario Ti: La demostración abarcó 1.105 kilómetros de fibra entre Los Ángeles and San José (California),
marcando un hito en las redes ópticas y ofreciendo una visión de lo que será la red. La prueba se llevó a
cabo con la nueva plataforma DTN-X de Infinera y demostró tener el doble de capacidad que en pruebas
anteriores al añadir una capacidad de 1 Terabit a una ruta que transporta una capacidad de producción
de 300 Gb/s.
“Nuestra visión es ofrecer a los clientes servicios de vanguardia que escalen su negocio de manera
eficiente. Como los servicios de 10 Gb/s proliferan y los puertos de router de 100 Gb/s emergen,
estamos probando soluciones avanzadas que escalen las redes ópticas por encima de los 100 Gb/s,"
dijo Erik Hallberg, presidente del operador internacional TeliaSonera. “Esta demostración de 1 Terabit
con Infinera destaca nuestro compromiso para ofrecer una mejor experiencia para los clientes más
exigentes."
“Estamos encantados de trabajar con el operador internacional TeliaSonera para validar la
implementación de los supercanales de 500 Gb/s que son la base de esta demostración de 1 Terabit,"
dijo Tom Fallon, CEO de Infinera. “Compartimos una visión común de ofrecer la escalabilidad,
simplicidad y agilidad necesaria para ganar un entorno altamente competitivo."
Infinera es una empresa pionera en el campo de los supercanales, y la primera en hacer una
demostración de supercanales basados en circuitos fotónicos integrados (PICs) de 500 Gb/s. Un
supercanal es una unidad grande de capacidad óptica creada al combinar múltiples transportes ópticos
en una única entidad gestionada, de manera que las redes ópticas puedan escalar la capacidad sin
escalar los costes operacionales y la complejidad. Los supercanales basados en PICs permiten a los
operadores simplificar la provisión de capacidad de 500 Gb/s con una única maniobra operacional. La
plataforma DTN de Infinera, la plataforma ATN y los Servicios Gestionados de Infinera son elementos del
portfolio de Infinera, así como la recientemente anunciada plataforma de red de transporte óptico DTN-X
que soporta supercanales de 500 Gb/s.
El operador internacional TeliaSonera es parte del 5º grupo de telecomunicaciones más grande del
mundo, TeliaSonera, con 164 millones de usuarios que generan beneficios por encima de los 11.000
millones de dólares. La compañía sigue expandiendo la huella Norteamericana en su red global, causada
por una fuerte demanda tanto de operadores como jugadores en el mercado de contenido para IP,
DWDM, voz y servicios de móvil especialistas.

12.- LG U+ launches Voice over LTE services with Ericsson.
• LG U+ users in South Korea to benefit from voice over LTE services
• With voice over LTE technology, the operator can also offer enhanced telecom grade services such
as HD voice, video calling, chat and presence
LG U+ users in South Korea get access to voice over LTE (VoLTE) services. This is thanks to a decision
made by South Korean operator LG U+, in partnership with Ericsson's (NASDAQ: ERIC) majority-owned
subsidiary LG-Ericsson, to make subscribers in South Korea benefit from commercial VoLTE (GSMA
IR.92) services.
The demand for LTE data services in South Korea has increased rapidly ever since LG U+ became the
first operator in the country to launch LTE commercially on July 1, 2011. As of August 2012, LG U+ has
9. fam’s teleco news (Año3-Nº5/Agosto 2012) 9/8
confirmed that LGU+ is the second largest LTE provider in South Korea, serving 3.1 million of LTE
subscribers.
Joo sik Choi, Senior Vice President of Service Creation, LG U+ says: "Improving the user experience for
our subscribers is always our top priority. Ericsson's global leadership in LTE technology and experience
in building an end-to-end LTE network infrastructure helped ensure the success of the nationwide launch
of this service."
Johan Wibergh, Head of Business Unit Networks at Ericsson, says: "With the new VoLTE technology, LG
U+ will be able to offer its subscribers better voice quality and an improved user experience. The new
VoLTE services will sharpen LG U+'s competitive edge considerably and will provide the foundation for
further enriching their communication services offering."
Originally, 4G/LTE technology was developed for data communication only. The 4G/LTE technology has
now evolved to embrace Rich Communication Services as well, making it a full telecommunication grade
technology. VoLTE is a technology that allows voice calls to be made over an LTE network at the same
time as users can access high-speed mobile broadband services and rich communication services. Up
until now, in order to handle voice calls, CDMA-LTE devices required simultaneous radio operation on
both CDMA and LTE, which is inherently inefficient and does not allow for a fully integrated rich
communications offering.
Ericsson has supplied an end-to-end VoLTE network to LG U+, including LTE-RAN, Evolved Packet
Core, and IMS Telephony Application Server.

13.- Google, ITU team up to deliver free global tech stats.
ITU’s highly regarded telecommunication and information and communication technology (ICT) statistics
are now available through the Google Public Data Explorer (PDE) at www.itu.int/ITU-
D/ict/statistics/explorer/index.html.
With Google PDE users can now explore and visualize ITU’s key ICT statistical indicators from 1960 to
2011 (where data exists) for about 200 economies worldwide. Key indicators include fixed telephone,
mobile cellular, fixed (wired) Internet, fixed (wired) broadband subscriptions and penetration, as well as
the percentage of individuals using the Internet.
ITU statistics are widely recognized as the world’s most reliable and impartial global data on the state of
the global ICT industry. They are used extensively by leading intergovernmental agencies, financial
institutions and private sector analysts worldwide.
The Google Public Data Explorer platform enables quick search of statistics, and helps users quickly
interpret data and statistics through rich visualizations. Using PDE, users can ‘mash up’ data using line
graphs, bar graphs, maps and bubble charts. Visualizations are dynamic, allowing users to track trends
over time. In addition, charts can easily be shared with friends or even embedded on a website or a blog.
10. fam’s teleco news (Año3-Nº5/Agosto 2012) 10/8
“Teaming up with Google Public Data Explorer will greatly expand the reach and usability of ITU’s ICT
statistics, making them more accessible and allowing users to explore and visualize ITU’s rich datasets,”
said ITU Secretary-General Dr Hamadoun Touré. “For the first time, even non-experts will be able to
quickly and easily create compelling charts and trends analysis that will enhance their work, and will also
benefit others working to further develop the ICT sector worldwide.”
As an example, using Google Public Data Explorer, a user could quickly find out that mobile cellular
subscriptions reached almost 6 billion by end 2011 and visualize how this trend has developed over time,
as well as in different countries around the world; or compare Internet penetration across countries; or
learn that 30 million fixed (wired) broadband subscriptions were added in China in 2011 (accounting for
about half of total subscriptions added worldwide).
