Les Entretiens de Télécom ParisTech<br />Mobile broadband services

For their 6th edition, the Entretiens de Télécom ParisTech and Télécom ParisTech alumni will address the challenges of new mobile services during a day of debates and exchanges open to professionals. The rise in mobile access network speeds is accompanying the emergence of new services, uses and terminals. Expectations from the consumer, expectations from the citizenOriginal uses are emerging, in terms of short-term social networks, m-commerce, traffic monitoring systems or targeted marketing, with real-time use of data collected or delivered in the very place where the need is felt. This evolution is confronted with questions of security and protection of privacy. Will reconciling the consumer and the citizen be a source of competitive advantage?A challenge for networksNetworks are facing a paradigm shift from the management of communication - as in traditional telephony - to the management of presence. Networks need to evolve radically, in terms of bandwidth, capacity and information routing. These needs call for technological leaps, such as cognitive radio, which enables the frequency range used to be dynamically reconfigured.Terminals called on to constantly evolveHuman-machine interfaces are challenged by small and varied screen surfaces. Barely accustomed to using one finger to control a screen, users will be able to interact with several fingers or gestures without touching the screen!Economic stakesHow will the value created be shared between the various players in the sector? Can we establish a business model where the economic and technological stakes are well understood?
