In this webinar we discus how fixed wireless networks using outdoor antennas can save a Mobile Network Operator (MNO) money. Start at 2:16 to skip the introduction:). (Link to PDF of presentation: https://bit.ly/3dSwWVV) There is a huge money saving opportunity for mobile operators in using outdoor antennas as part of a Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) solution. Normally operators only consider outdoor antennas as a solution to fix signal problems for customers on the fringe of reception, but in this webinar we show that there is a real business case for a MNO to save money when using outdoor antennas as part of their FWA solution. This is one of the rare occasions when a technical approach can solve a business problem. An operator can get much more revenue from the same infrastructure, as they can increase the capacity of a base station by a factor of 4 or 5, by adding outdoor antennas to their solution. Want to increase the revenue from your current infrastructure? Have a look at this recording where we will cover: • Factors influencing FWA (Signal to Noise Ratio, MIMO, etc.). • How to improve your FWA experience. • How an external antenna improves throughput. • How does an external antenna increase capacity. • How does the end user benefit from FWA. *Dr. André Fourie is CEO of Poynting Group has a Ph.D Electrical Engineering 1991 and was a Professor at the University of the Witwatersrand until 2001.
