With just over 150 days to go before
WRC-15, Eutelsat is urging the satel-
lite industry to step up efforts to “fight
invasion” from the mobile broadband
sector’s efforts to secure new IMT spec-
trum from satellite frequencies not just
at WRC-15, but at the following WRC
conference in 2019.
Michel de Rosen, chairman and CEO
of Eutelsat, said on Monday that the sat-
ellite industry is concerned by lobbying
efforts from the mobile sector to not
only secure IMT allocations in the con-
tested extended C-band at WRC-15, but
also to identify new candidate bands in
higher frequencies that could be submit-
ted at WRC-19.
“In other words, there is the battle for
C-band, but behind that battle, there is
the battle for all our spectrum, which the
IMT industry will gladly take away from
us,” he said.
The GSM Association has stated in
official documents that the mobile sec-
tor will require another 600-800MHz
worth of spectrum by 2020 to handle
traffic demand over the next five to ten
years. While the organization has been
lobbying for harmonization of lower fre-
quency bands (470-694/698MHz) and
extended C-band (3.4GHz-4.2GHz),
it is also targeting other satellite bands
for additional spectrum, including the
S-band (2.7-2.9GHz) and L-band (be-
tween 1300MHz-1518MHz).
De Rosen said the mobile sector ar-
guably doesn’t need additional spectrum
for future traffic demand because it is

“The satellite industry is a $200 bil-
lion a year business, compared to the
global telecoms industry, which is a $5.4
trillion business,” he said. “This is the re-
ality we face when we fight for spectrum
or talk about growth.”
Another hurdle to growth is that sat-
ellite is often perceived as being “slow,
expensive and complicated” compared
to other access technologies, he added.
“Some of our own corporate customers
say satellite is the last resort option for
connectivity.”
So the question becomes: can satel-
lite compete in the broader global tel-
ecom industry, and leverage the strength
of that industry to drive growth?

The satellite sector must compete out-
side of its traditional industry borders in
order to grow its market, but it could be
a tough road as satellite players fight to
overcome cost issues and customer per-
ceptions, says Intelsat’s chief executive.
Satellite has the ability to capitalize
on numerous opportunities related to
things like unconnected communities,
rural corporate connectivity, M2M and
even OTT content distribution, but a
key hurdle is that the satellite industry
doesn’t have the economic clout com-
pared to the overall telecoms sector, said
Intelsat CEO Stephen Spengler.
live update at www.telecomasia.net
Spengler says that in order for the
answer to be “yes”, satellite needs to offer
higher performance, better ease of use,
and better economics, to include lower
TCO and cost per bit.
Spengler offers two ideas for industry
growth moving forward. First: stay fo-
cused on what satellite does best – reach,
ubiquity, reliability, point-to-multipoint
economics, fast deployment and secu-
rity. And second: compete across the
broader telecoms industry.
Spengler said that high throughput
satellite (HTS) technology is a good start
in terms of performance and cost per bit,

Unified Inbox is tweaking its
core product offering. The firm’s
unified inbox hub now incorpo-
rates Outbox: a unified manage-
ment platform for companies to
push their message out across all
social media channels simulta-
neously.
Unified Inbox CEO Toby
Ruckert says that an intelli-
gent, unified inbox beats using
a dozen different apps to com-
municate. “People use Face-
book, Twitter, SMS, even legacy
channels like fax and email,” he
says. Ruckert’s idea is to bridge
this inter-generational, inter-
geographical communication
challenge.
Unified Inbox ranks mes-
sages by scanning for words,
frequency of discussion, and ge-
ographical proximity. The AI al-
gorithm was developed in con-
junction with SAP by building
on Hana’s predictive algorithms.
Google or Facebook cannot cre-
ate a unified inbox, says Ruck-
ert: “Google will fail – it cannot
cross to iOS.”
OutboxPro is a social media
manager that can push identical
content to different social media
channels: a page can be shared
to Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter
and Weibo from the same inter-
face with minimal editing to suit

National ICT Australia (NIC-
TA) is promising big data ana-
lytics while preserving privacy
through the use of homomor-
phic encryption.
“Everyone wants to do big
data, but users want to main-
tain their privacy,” said Terry
Percival, director of broad-
band and the digital economy
at NICTA, at CommunicA-
sia2015. “That’s the problem
we’ve solved. How can you gain
insight from data without ac-
tually giving up privacy – use
magic? That’s what we call our
project: Magic.”
Magic is a tool that meas-
ures the trade-off between
data fidelity and privacy. It can
group together customers and
add noise. The larger the group,
the less fidelity and the more
privacy individual users have.
The tool calculates and reports
on fidelity of the trade-off
through the analytics process.
The other half of Magic is
moveable analytics. Algorithms
send this grouped, noisy data
for analysis to any number of
different third parties.
Multiple obfuscated data-
sets can be run for big data ana-
lytics by different processors,
with nobody having access to
the full set of data – yet with
an outcome useful for detect-
ing outlying data points and
anomalies.
NICTA’s first POC is using
Magic between a telco and a
bank to test how banking in-
formation and mobile phone
billing history can be combined
to give meaningful analytics
without either side revealing
their customer database to the
other. Another POC combined
a travel company with a bank to
detect suspicious activity.
NICTA is also showing off
its business process compli-
ance tool: a new language that
formalizes legal compliance
checks, rules, and regulations
into a new computer language.
Defeasible detonic logic
rules could include check once,
check persistently, completed
once, completed before and so
on. Compliance rules such as
Sarbanes-Oxley are translated
into this language, as are busi-
ness processes, and the tool can
automatically run to see if they
comply (and if not, what part of
the business process does not).
It can also check existing pro-
cesses with new or proposed
laws. 3

each channel.
Ruckert, who will speak at
the CommunicAsia Summit this
week, says Outbox is a tracking,
reporting hub to manage social
media networks-of-networks.
A company can have many us-
ers creating social media posts
while a small group of editors
approves the publishing of such
posts to the company’s official
social media channel.
The next level could be for a
major event – say, a future Com-
municAsia – to use its social
media presences to take content
suggestions from the media cov-
ering that event. These would be
curated and approved by the
event organizers before pushing
it out through CommunicAsia’s
social media presence, all with
clear reporting and auditing.
Perhaps this is the future of how
meta-social media will work
in tomorrow’s multi-channel
world. 3

but it’s only one part of a much
wider strategy.
“We need hybrid end-to-
end solutions to improve the
economics, and we need to cap-
italize on ICT industry innova-
tions – meta materials, storage
capacity, battery technology,
miniaturization, software and
so on. We have to bring that
into our space,” he said.
“We also need to simplify
access devices so that they just
become IP nodes,” he added,
drawing a comparison between
old, complex hi-fi stereo sys-
tems and the iPod. “That’s how
simple it needs to be to be able
to access satellite connectivity.”
Spengler also advocated an
open standards approach to
drive growth and lower costs.
“We’re too customized right
now.” 3

number of devices, including
Panasonic’s standard unified

Panasonic has a data re-
corder that consolidates the
feeds into one storage device
and in turn feeds that to the cli-
ent devices.

partners to provide image anal-
ysis, for instance of left bags or

Ruckus Wireless has expanded its loca-
tion based services (LBS) portfolio with
the addition of new features that enables
service providers and enterprises cus-
tomers to deliver new value added ser-
vices over Wi-Fi networks and enhance
customer experience.
Ruckus says the new release of its
SPoT Smart Technology solution allows
retailers, stadiums, transportation hubs
and schools to deliver on-site LBS that
interacts with users based on their pre-
cise location, giving businesses and or-
ganizations the ability to tailor the user
online experience.
Ruckus SPoT LBS includes options
for both public and private cloud-based
services and is available in three options.
With venue calibration, Ruckus
SPoT Point detects client locations in
real-time within a range of five to eight
meters, with 80% accuracy.
For those who need less precise LBS
tracking information and/or smaller
venues with fewer access points de-
ployed, they can deploy Ruckus SPoT
Presence which has been designed for
smaller stores and outdoor deployments.
Ruckus SPoT Presence detects the
overall number of devices present in a
venue at the nearest Ruckus ZoneFlex
access point (AP) using proximity ana-
lytics. It will be available by July.
Ruckus SPoT virtual appliance soft-
ware (virtual SPoT) is a new, virtualized
version of SPoT that can be managed off-
site in private or hybrid data centers.
Dr. See Ho Ting, director of loca-
tion technology at Ruckus Wireless, says
SPoT Point is more suitable for verticals
like retailing and hospitality sector. He
says companies like fashion online re-
tailer Zalora and Italian fashion event
organizer Fiera Milano have already de-
ployed Ruckus Wi-Fi and LBS services.
Zalora, for instance, deployed Ruck-
us SPoT at its flagship digital interactive
pop-up store at ION Orchard in Singa-
pore last year, with the help of Ruckus
partner Nera Telecommunications.
As a result, Zalora can now send
targeted advertisements and coupons
directly to a customer’s mobile device,
creating a unique shopping experience.
“SPoT gives us valuable insights into
customer footfall, letting us continually
optimize our retail environment,” said
Brian Ngo, regional IT manager at Zal-
ora. “With SPoT, we can determine our
store’s footfall, entrance and conversion
rates. Having this information allows us
to map these data against our sales re-
cords, enabling us to have better.”
Meanwhile, Ruckus also said it has
forged a new alliance with Gimbal, un-
der which the new Ruckus ZoneFlex
R710 indoor access point and ZoneFlex
H500 Wall Switch now support Gim-
bal and iBeacon technology with full
management in Ruckus SmartZone and
ZoneDirector controllers.
Ruckus ZoneFlex APs can now run
Gimbal’s proprietary firmware, helping
to ensure the highest security for beacon
proximity networks via Gimbal’s unique,
rolling encrypted IDs.
In other words, Ruckus ZoneFlex
APs serve as a two-way distributed man-
agement platform for beacons in the
APs, and as an asset and security moni-
toring platform for all nearby beacons.
“In the Beacon ecosystem today
there’s no management system to help
customer manage hundreds or thou-
sands of Beacons,” Ting says.
“We can extend our management
ability [of enterprise managed Wi-Fi
services] by allowing Gimbal Beacons to
be attached to our access points.”
This will help enable retailers, hotels,
venues, advertisers and out-of-home
(OOH) networks to monetize their wire-
less networks by securely sharing access
to their beacon networks with business
partners, sponsors or digital ad net-
works, he adds.
Ruckus is showcasing the SPoT LBS
portfolio, together with the new Ruckus
ZoneFlex R710 indoor access point at
CommunicAsia this week. 3

StarHub taps Neural for fraud management
StarHub has contracted risk management and analytics vendor Neural Technologies to
deploy a fraud management system for its telecom services. StarHub selected Neural
in a competitive tender and has now awarded the company a roughly $1 million deal.
Neural Technologies’ products focus on investigating and analyzing fraud activities
through a single, flexible platform. The company has been contracted to provide
protection across a range of fraud types throughout StarHub’s entire business.
Telin Singapore to resell Cisco conferencing tech
PT Telkom subsidiary Telin Sigapore has become the first service provider in APAC
to be certified as a Cisco authorized technology provider. The company has unveiled
new product offerings for enterprises and operators, adding automation to Cisco web
conference service base clouds.Telin has been cleared to sell, deploy and support Cisco
web conference services in Singapore, and plans to make the WebEx service available
on its online store 333Cloud. Customers can choose from monthly or yearly billing and
take advantage of consolidated billing.
Price top factor in choice of DC host in HK
Hong Kong IT leaders consider price to be the most important factor when choosing a
data center service provider. Research from NTT Com shows that 87% of IT decision-
makers consider service price to be a key criteria. The service provider’s reputation has
risen sharply in prominence to become the second most important factor, while service
level commitment, facility technical specifications and site location are also important
factors. Other factors that can come into play include facility operation flexibility,
capacity for future expansion, building type and service performance visibility.
Wearables boom drives demand for flexible AMOLED panels
Growing adoption of wearable devices will help drive an 11% growth in flexible
AMOLED (active-matrix-organic-light-emitting diode) panels in 2015, IHS predicts.
Shipments are expected to continue growing through to at least 2019 as wearables
reach the mainstream. Declining prices for low-temperature polysilicon LTE displays
have undermined the price competitiveness of AMOLED panels, threatening to temper
growth in the market. To help compensate for this and differentiate their offerings,
AMOLED panel makers such as Samsung Display and LG Display are now offering
flexible displays.

“In most of the world, less than 50%
of the spectrum already identified by the
ITU for IMT services has actually been
licensed,” he said. “We are talking about
hundreds of megahertz of unlicensed
spectrum that is just sitting there, not
being used.”
Moreover, he added, of the IMT
spectrum that has been licensed, much
of it isn’t actually being utilized by users.
“In other words, IMT still has plenty of
room to grow before it starts lobbying
