1. Mobile Broadband spectrum allocations: Ericsson perspective Ulf pehrsson, vice president 3 december, 2013

2. Mobile subscriptions outlook 2010-2019 M2M subscriptions not included

3. population Coverage Around 90% of world´s population covered by WCDMA/HSPA in 2019 LTE network deployments continue in all regions of the world, as LTE population coverage doubled in 2012 compared to 2011 (10% vs. 5%) More than 65% of world’s population covered by LTE in 2019

4. Speed increase with LTE Downlink Speeds Kbps Source: Speedtest.net

5. performance drives loyalty Addressing network performance has largest impact on customer loyalty Four times as effective as introducing loyalty rewards Network performance is the principal driver of loyalty to mobile operators, followed by value for money (correlated parameters) Relative impact between each driver and loyalty to operator brand

6. spectrum for mobile broadband- Regional mainstream hspa & lte deployments Europe Base: 2100 & 900 New: 2600, 1800 & CEPT800 North America Base: 850, 1900, US700 & AWS New: 2600 Japan Base: 2100, 1700, JP850 New: 1500, 900 & APT700 Latin América Base: 850 & 1900 New: AWS & 2600 2014+: APT700 APAC Base: 2100, 900 & 850 New: 1800,2300 & 2600 2014+: APT700 MEA Base: 2100 New: 900, 1800 & 2600 2014+: CEPT800 & APT700

7. Broadband capacity & coverage- typical deployment by a European operator Assumptions: Propagation based. Suburban environment. Reference frequency is 800 MHz. 5 dB higher antenna gain at 2,100 MHz and 6 dB higher antenna gain at 2,600 MHz. LTE and HSPA: re-use 1

8. Mainstream mobile allocationscurrent assumption for sub 1 GHz bands The 900 MHz band [B8] The APT700 band [B28]– Low & High Duplexer The E850 Lower / Upper [B27/26] and the 850 MHz [B5] bands APAC & Latin America >200 MHz 703 803 807 814/824 844 852 859/869 889 935 960 2x45 MHz 890 915 The APT700 band [B28]– Low Duplexer The CEPT 800 band [B20] The 900 MHz band [B8] Europe, Middle East & Africa 190 MHz 703 788 791 821 832 862 880 915 925 960 2x30 MHz The E850 Upper band [B26] and the 850 MHz [B5] bands The band 700 MHz [B12,17,29,13,14] US & Canada 160 MHz SDL 699 716 729 746 756 777 787 814 824 849 859 869 894 718 728 758 768 788 798 New momentum = Uplink = Downlink SDL = Supplementary Downlink

9. To date, 25 countries have adopted the APT700 band. Japan, Australia, Mexico and Taiwan have licensed the band. Devices and infrastructure will become available mid-2014. Excellent potential for global roaming. Momentum in ITU Region 1 for a combination of the lower duplexer of the APT700 band with the CEPT800 band, currently being deployed in Europe. Ericsson recommends to license spectrum in blocks of 2x5 MHz. APT700 – Current update The APT700 band brings significant economies of scale and capabilities to cost efficiently cover also rural areas

10. Options discussed in CEPT ECC PT1 CEPT will reduce the number of options for a preferred channelling arrangement for the band 694-790 MHz Two main options – currently a majority is supporting Option 1

Frequencyvs. costs Relative number of base stations sites for UHF: 700 MHz set to 0 dB antenna gain for reference 900 MHz at 1.5 dB higher antenna gain 2.1 GHz at 5 dB higher antenna gain 2.6 GHz at 6 dB higher antenna gain Relative CAPEX for UHF infrastructure investments the low frequency UHF band is key for cost efficient coverage 1,400 1,230% 1,200 1,000 [%] 800 675% 600 455% 400 328% 126% 200 100% 700 850 / 900 2,100 2,600 3,500 5,800 [MHz] Source: BBC R&D networks based on UHF need less than a 3rd of the sites compared with higher bands
