PROJECT CHARTER

Project Title: 3 G LAUNCH Date Prepared: June 22, 2013 Project Customer: DV COM

Project Sponsor: CEO Project Manager: SALMAN AHMED Project Purpose or Justification:

Mobile user in Pakistan shows drastic increase in demand for newer,faster and better technologies has risen at a faster pace than was expected thus the need to be at par with the rest of the world has urged the industry to take further steps at a faster rate. After the installation of GSM and CDMA networks, companies will now be able to offer customers the wonders of 3G (Third generation) networks in Pakistan.

Based on the International Telecommunications Union standards, the 3G network is the third generation of mobile networking and telecommunications. It features a wider range of services and advances network capacity over the previous 2G network and also increases the rate of information transfer known as spectral efficiency. Telephony has received a wider area and more range, while video and broadband wireless data transfers have also been positively affected. These criteria are identified as the IMT-2000 standard.
3RD generation technology is almost available in every country ,but somehow delayed in PAKISTAN but now allotting 3G frequencies to telecom operators is extremely urgent and essential for Pakistan. Mobile broadband or 3G should have been introduced in Pakistan four years ago. The delay has made us lose huge opportunities relating to job creation, international trade, economic growth and Foreign Direct Investment (telecom FDI 2007: $1,824 million and 2011: $79 million).

Project Description:
A 3G network provides for download speeds of 14.4 megabits per second and upload speeds of 5.8 megabits per second. The minimum speed for a stationary user is 2 megabits per second, while a user in a moving vehicle can expect 348 kilobits per second. This scheme is known as a layered system in which each transmission features three layers of information. The top layer is general service, the middle layer is a control data transmission, and the bottom layer is the basic connectivity information

Project and Product Requirements:

From consumers perspective they think that 3G is something to have fast speed and good video quality and improve communication means. services like wide area wireless voice telephone, mobile Internet access, video calls and TV and broadband wireless data. Now, people are so much interested in buying 3G-powered devices and tools. Already people want to buy this technology because everyone wants to enjoy the breath taking benefits of that technology. It has opened a new way of life for all hand set users. Companies Perspective: License from PTA & FAB through fair Biding Infrastructure building High skilled manpower Speedy Custom clearance

Acceptance Criteria:

In the current era of technology, 3G technology is need of the hour as the volume of data transmission has increased tremendously, as todays Pakistani consumers is more aware.

Fast connectivity of internet:

It helps in future from consumer perspective to gain many benefits like roaming capability and broad

PROJECT CHARTER
Acceptance Criteria:
bandwidth and high speed communication.Due to fast connectivity of internet; you can send and receive large email messages via wireless in a very small time.

Customization mobile broadband devices and services:

provides the countrys citizens with richer, more compelling communications services. Access to convenient, affordable and highly customization mobile broadband devices and services makes life more productive, secure and meaningful and empowers people to transform the way they live, learn, work and play.

Enjoy multi media entertainment:

in a better way. Due to its high speed, now, you can download an MP3 song in just 3 min at 144kb/sec (2 mb/sec. You can also watch latest news, bulletins, breaking news and headlines.The 3G wireless technology represents a shift from voice-centric services to multimedia-oriented like video, voice, data, and fax services. The most interesting and useful aspect of it is its ability to unify existing cellular standards such as GSM, CDMA and TDMA.Such access to more broad band services help to achieve global tasks. like pervaiz iftikhar mentioned: help accelerate achievement of development targets like the universally-accepted Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).It is only by using broadband that we can serve our exploding population (having a CAGR of 2.5 per cent) at their doorsteps.

Broadband facility everywhere:

Currently broadband facility is used by very few ratio of population in Pakistan but after launch of 3G technologies it can take broadband to every nook and corner of the country, becoming accessible to more than 90 per cent of the population, with relatively small effort.

Improve asset and resource management:

solutions like these are helping enterprises improve their asset and resource management capabilities, streamline their operations and ultimately, achieve significant cost savings. For example employees working offsite with mobile laptops or handheld devices may access company resource management solutions and dynamically collaborate with intra-office systems that link warehouses, suppliers and customer databases.
