In a significant move to enhance mobile internet access, Beeline, a leading telecommunications operator, has implemented a refarming strategy in Tomsk and Seversk. This strategic approach involves reallocating existing spectrum resources, primarily refarming 2G and 3G frequency bands for 4G use.
The refarming strategy has brought about several benefits for the residents of Tomsk and Seversk. The speed of mobile internet has increased by 20% or more on the 4G network, ensuring a smoother browsing experience for users. This improvement is not limited to specific areas but has been observed across the cities.
One of the key advantages of Beeline's refarming strategy is the increased spectrum for 4G. By freeing up spectrum from older technologies (2G/3G) and reallocating it to 4G LTE, Beeline can offer wider bandwidth for 4G users. This translates directly to higher data throughput and faster speeds.
Moreover, refarming enables more efficient use of available frequencies, allowing the operator to support a larger number of simultaneous 4G connections without congestion. This capacity boost is essential to handle growing data traffic in urban areas like Tomsk and Seversk.
The improvements extend beyond the cities, with villages and towns near Tomsk also experiencing enhanced 4G speed. The network improvements are particularly noticeable along the Tomsk-Airport road in areas such as Zonalnaya Station, Loskutovo, April, Nekrasovo, Bogashëvo, and nearby dacha and garden associations.
The optimization process has not been limited to the areas mentioned earlier. It has also expanded coverage for residents of d. Kaydalovka, s. Markelovo, d. Kozulino, s. Urta, s. Cherdaty, and s. Krasny Yar.
With additional spectrum dedicated to 4G, users experience more stable connections and less signal interference, improving overall service quality. This refarming strategy is also future-proofing the network, creating a more streamlined and modernized network architecture optimized for high-speed data services, making it easier to upgrade to technologies like 5G later.
Cost efficiency is another advantage of Beeline's refarming strategy. By maximizing the use of their existing assets, Beeline reduces deployment costs while enhancing network performance.
Sergey Voronin, director of Beeline's Tomsk branch, emphasized the importance of quality mobile internet for leisure time, access to information, government services, and personal development. The network improvements provide customers with reliable mobile internet access, allowing them to stream videos, listen to online music, transfer funds, and use other modern services.
In summary, Beeline's refarming strategy in Tomsk and Seversk reallocates older technology frequencies to 4G LTE, which increases available bandwidth, boosts capacity, improves service quality, and better prepares the network for anticipated traffic growth and future upgrades. The result is a high-speed three-lane highway-like 4G network in Tomsk and Seversk, designed to handle the increasing load during peak traffic times and prepare the network for further traffic growth.
Technology plays a pivotal role in Beeline's refarming strategy, as the telco repurposes spectrum from older technologies (2G/3G) for 4G LTE, expanding the available bandwidth and facilitating higher data throughput. Moreover, the efficient use of technology ensures a larger number of simultaneous 4G connections without congestion, essential for handling growing data traffic in urban areas like Tomsk and Seversk.
