𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐆𝐑 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐭 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐈’𝐬 𝐎𝐇𝐃 The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India held an open house discussion on the Consultation Paper on the ‘Framework for Service Authorisations to be Granted Under the Telecommunications Act, 2023.’ Most of the stakeholders asked for the removal of adjusted gross revenue (AGR) and license fee. Ravi Gandhi, president and chief of public policy at Reliance Jio and Reliance Retail, urged the regulator to include OTT communication service providers in the access services authorization regime. The telco argued that there is no strong case for treating OTTs such as Whatsapp differently than telecom operators, at least at the service level. The former should be brought under the authorisation regime as these are in competition with telcos, Jio said. Jio’s pitch, however, was refuted by the, which represents tech companies such as Meta, Google, Netflix, Amazon, among others.  “OTTs are not telecom services. The argument that these are the same services is a misnomer and a misconceived thought,” argued Debashish Bhattacharya, senior deputy director general at BIF. Adding that certain interested parties continue to bring this up with the hope that they can get the OTT services covered under the Act through the back door. “Telecom service providers have unique exclusive rights that include right to spectrum, right to numbering resources, right to interconnect, and a right of way. To set up infrastructure, OTT players have none of these privileges. OTT players cannot provide any services unless and until they are allowed by telecom service providers. Entire network and the control to access the network is in the hands of telecom service providers,” he said, opposing Jio’s argument on a level playing field. The debate about regulating OTTs resurfaced after the Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), in its recent submission to Trai, said, "As per our understanding, OTT communication services are covered under the new Telecom Act as an access service.” #telecom #network #communication #services #resources #operators

The Reality of 5G Wireless Broadband Internet Bites 5G Fixed Wireless Access (5G FWA) offers a very convenient and affordable internet option, similar to cable, DSL or fiber. However, it's also a shared resource (just like cable, DSL or fiber). During peak hours, with many users streaming e.g. lots of 4K content or downloading large files, network congestion can quickly lead to slower speeds and other internet quality issues for everyone. T-Mobile's successful 5G FWA rollout in the US showcases the technology's potential and now also the challenges. As the consumer base grows, the limitations of shared bandwidth become evident. T-Mobile is now throttling data for home internet users exceeding 1.2 TB per month and forcing home internet users to let their T-Mobile gateways stay at the registered address only for better capacity planning.  The challenge with shared bandwidth: Streaming media gobbles up internet bandwidth. When many consumers are concurrently using the same 5G FWA network for e.g. streaming 4K content with e.g. peak bitrates of 20-30 Mbps, and average bitrate of 10 Mbps, this can strain the network and impacting consumers quality of experience. Cf. the comments from T-Mobile consumers in the attached article. Potential Solutions for Congestion and quality problems: ► Advanced effective encoding for streaming: Encoding technologies like e.g. #LCEVC from V-Nova Ltd. can significantly reduce data usage and alleviate congestion. But this requires media devices to flawlessly support LCEVC. ► Smarter media distribution: Combining the advanced media distribution capabilities of 5G Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (5G MBMS, from 5G Release 17) with e.g. #LCEVC encoding capabilities can significantly reduce potential congestion problems for many consumers and telcos.

Infrastructure is basic input for telecommunication and is regulated primarily for level playing amongst various infrastructure providers. Capex for infrastructure is huge & Infrastructure maintains its character whereas OTT services witness change in technology deployment to globally provision end to end services with standard interface specifications. Infrastructure is expected to be scalable and efficient for the OTT services. As a matter of fact OTT drives the growth of infrastructure and the same is country specific. Whereas some countries have more robust infrastructure in matter of its availability, scalable and presence across the country on land, sea and sky; many other countries lack infrastructure due to a number of constraints eg Capex for technology hardware and opex for resources like spectrum, right of way, household, manpower , licence fees, revenue sharing, taxes on revenue etc etc. OTT technology is globally deployed and solicited by telcos in various countries with approvals contained in respective licencing terms and conditions. Hence on the face #OTT #plateforms fall exclusively in the domain of telcos primarily for the reasons that they are enabled by them via their interconnect gateways.
