M3.1 Results of economical analysis of the initial scenarios

M3.1 Celtic project CP5-013 MARCH - Multilink architecture for multiplay services

In a multilink network broadband services can be delivered by simultaneous use of several access network technologies, like fixed, mobile and broadcast. The benefits for simultaneous use of available access network are expected to give increased performance and facilitate a convergence between broadband, mobile and broadcast services. The development of a multilink network has to be based on solid business models where the customer needs and the different player’s perspectives are taken into account. The different technical architectures have to be implemented in a realistic economical way. In this document the first economical evaluations of multilink scenarios are presented. Two of the scenarios from deliverable D2.1 are considered: “Live events – bicycle race” and “Mobile broadband applications in urban and suburban areas”. The initial calculations of cash flow, pay back period, net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) are shown. The business case calculations presented here are preliminary examples, which will be verified and enhanced in later deliverables.
