Infrastructure Sharing (Passive Infrastructure becoming more popular)

Infrastructure Sharing

There are multiple possible options of sharing amongst telecom service providers. However this sharing also depends on telecom regulatory and legislation.

• Passive Infrastructure (eg OpenNet Singapore) sharing is nothing but sharing non-electronic infrastructure at cell site. Passive Infrastructure is becoming popular in telecom industry world wide.

• Active (eg Nucleus Connect Singapore) sharing is nothing but sharing electronic infrastructure.

• Spectrum-sharing concept is based on a lease model and is often termed ‘spectrum trading’. An operator can lease a part of its spectrum to another operator on commercial terms. Though this mechanism, along with that of MVNOs, exists in the US, Europe, Singapore and Australia.

• Base station sharing is prospective while each operator: maintains control over logical Node B so that it will be able to operate the frequencies assigned to the carrier, fully independent from the partner operator and retains control over active base station equipment such as the TRXs that control reception/transmission over radio channels. Radio network controller and core network are not shared here.

• Site sharing includes antennas and mast; this may also hold Base transceiver station (BTS), Node B in UMTS context and common equipments such as Antenna system, masts, cables, filters and shelter.

• RNC (Radio Network Controller) sharing represents maintaining logical control over the RNC of each operator independently.

• MSC and Routers sharing or backbone sharing includes sharing switches (MSC) and routers (SGSN) on the operator's fixed network.

• Geographical Splitting

• Frequency Sharing.
