Global Internet Traffic Growth 1997178% 1998124% 1999128% 2000195% 2001133% Global Mobile Data Traffic Growth 2008156% 2009140% 2010159% 2011 (estimate)131% 2012 (estimate)113% Cisco VNI Global Mobile Data Traffic Forecast 2010-2015; Feb2011 Transition to LTE will increase capacity through more spectrum and better spectral efficiency…but these gains cannot keep up with the increasing demand. Small cells will be a necessary part of the evolution to achieve the projected 26x increase in capacity required by 2015 Traffic growth and historic gains for wireless networks

From a select urban study on bandwidth consumption Source: Alcatel-Lucent measurements using 9900 WNG within live networks and Bell Labs analysis Forecast consumption by device type 80%-85% of packet switched calls are originated from Smartphones 40% of 3G devices are Smartphones Worldwide Aggregate Mobile Traffic Innovation of another sort – improved end device utility is driving this growth We knew being mobile was good - historical growth in cellular voice But we always felt something was missing … a proper handset with data
