Possible Solutions
Proposed Solution
Use a combination of WiFi, 3G with strategically
placing Smart Antennas in dense cell usage
areas.
Seamless handshaking between WiFi and 3G.
Pricing: Volume of Data transmitted through WiFi
is tracked within the handheld device and
transmitted to the operator with a certain delay
End of session?
Research
After extensive research on the problem, it was found that the
proposed solution has already been looked at and the technology
developed by Nortel and has been successfully tested in Japan.

3G vs. WiFi
Combination of the two technologies prevents
the capacity bottleneck associated with 3G
network. If a 3G cell is being overloaded, the call
or data connection can be handed off to a WiFi
Access Point.
WiFi is less expensive to deploy then 3G
networks and can be deployed for thousands of
dollars vs. millions.
Since WiFi has a short range, but more
bandwidth compared to 3G, each technology will
compliment each other.
