Strategic Insights on 2G to 3G Number Mobility PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 157-slide Telco 3G Strategy Report PowerPoint presentation, discusses the transition from 2G to 3G mobile networks, focusing on the role of Mobile Identification Number (MIN) mobility. It suggests that MIN mobility can serve as a facilitator for integrating 3G services, particularly when users switch between networks with varying capabilities. The slide emphasizes the classification of number mobility into 3 categories: location mobility, operator mobility, and service mobility.

The central theme revolves around the challenges and considerations associated with number mobility during this transition. It highlights that countries already implementing number mobility will likely have an advantage when launching 3G services. The visual representation of mobility issues between 2.5G (GPRS) and 3G (WCDMA) networks illustrates potential billing complications that arise when users switch between these networks while using voice or data services.

Billing issues are noted to stem from the "hands off" point between networks, where separate billing rates may apply. This can lead to confusion and complications in data production. The slide also raises concerns about simultaneous voice and data usage on 3G networks, which may exacerbate these billing issues when users move into areas with lower network capabilities.

The implications of introducing number mobility are significant, suggesting that a robust system is necessary to manage transitions across different network stages effectively. The slide serves as a critical reminder of the complexities involved in mobile number management during technological upgrades, urging stakeholders to consider these factors in their strategic planning.
