PETALING JAYA (Feb 6, 2014): YTL Communications Sdn Bhd's, the telecommunications arm of YTL Corp Bhd, could be abandoning its WiMax service which it has adopted since November 2010 to roll out its long-term evolution (LTE) technology.

Hong Leong Investment Bank's analyst Tan J Young believes that Yes, the brand name of YTL Communications in Malaysia, has stared trial runs and is preparing to roll its Time Division Duplexing-Long-Term Evolution (TDD-LTE) soon.

"LTE trials are currently conducted not only on the 20MHz of 2.6GHz spectrum which was awarded by MCMC in 2012, but also on its 30MHz of 2.3GHz spectrum which is presently occupied by its commercial WiMAX business," he said in an note to investors today.

"Surprisingly, trials are also being carried out on Asiaspace Broadband Sdn Bhd's 30MHz allocation on the 2.3GHz band," he added.

This, he said, could indirectly mean that Yes could be eyeing to take over Asiaspace's spectrum which is currently idle as the latter's WiMAX business did not materialise.

Asiaspace was awarded the 2.3GHz spectrum in December 2012 and was one of the four operators along with P1, YTL's Yes4G and REDtone that received the WiMAX licence from the government in 2007.

A check on Asiaspace's website revealed that the company is planning to go ahead with its collaboration with YTL on infrastructure and spectrum sharing under an agreement now that it has a 2.3GHz spectrum.

"With the collaboration, there will be avoided duplicity of infrastructure and maximize the use of bandwidth for the wireless broadband services nationwide by both companies to provide quality and uninterrupted services," it siad.

Young said Yes' exit from WiMAX was an anticipated move as the technology is widely believed to be phasing out and LTE is the only logical technology progression for telcos.

"If Yes lobbies successfully for Asiaspace's spectrum, it will allow Yes to migrate its existing WiMAX subscribers to LTE seamlessly while providing better quality of service," he said.

"Upon complete migration, Yes could use the whole 60MHz of 2.3GHz to offer TDD-LTE with theoretical download speed of up to 220Mbps (assumed based on latest carrier aggregation technology with 2 component carriers coupled with downlinkuplink time division ratio of 3 to 1)," he noted.

With this capability, Tan said, Yes can be a competent challenger to the incumbents with the niche of offering rich and high definition voice and text services over a pure advance data network supported by IMS, without the worry of legacy voice network.

"We believe that compatible devices will be abundant in the near future on the back of China's commitment following recent TD-LTE licence awards which also consist of 2.3GHz spectrum. Notably, this (LTE band 40) is supported by iPhone 5S (model A1530)," he pointed out.

"If Yes does invade the LTE market as such, this will undoubtedly elevate the competition in the cellular space one notch higher, while benefiting the fixed players through data bandwidth wholesale for backhaul transmission. Overall, this coincides with our sector outlook whereby we prefer fixed," he said.

IPhone 5S and 5C support TD2300 and TD2600, unless MCMC re-allocate 2.3吉赫 channel to YES

Leek,

KUALA LUMPUR: 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) has displaced rivals
YTL Power International Bhd as the front runner in the tender for the 2,000MW
coal-fired power plant known as Project 3B.
According to industry sources, the board of the Energy Commission (EC) has
decided to propose 1MDB as the preferred bidder for the RM11 billion
planting-up exercise to the Ministry of Energy, Green Technology and Water.
The final decision still rests with the Cabinet.
If the tender is awarded to 1MDB, it will be the catalyst that the
government-owned entity needs to list RM10.8 billion worth of power
generation assets it has acquired over the past few years.
The decision, however, is contrary to the recommendations of the EC’s own
technical evaluation committee and has come under scrutiny from both local
and international power players. After all, the EC has been bandying around
the transparency and fairness of its open tenders for planting-up projects.
The Edge reported earlier, citing documents sighted, that the EC’s technical
evaluation committee had recommended YTL Power as the preferred bidder for
the tender in December last year. Based on the documents, YTL Power had
put in the lowest adjusted tariff of 25.23 sen per kW hour compared with
1MDB’s adjusted bid of 25.65 sen. The 0.42 sen difference is estimated to be
worth around RM2 billion over the 25-year concession.
It was widely expected that the Cabinet would decide on the award of the
project at its meeting yesterday but according to sources, the EC’s proposal
was not tabled.
According to sources, part of the board’s rationale for selecting 1MDB over YTL Power had to do with YTL Power’s equipment supplier
from South Korea, Doosan, which allegedly does not meet the necessary requirements. However, based on the report by the technical
evaluation committee to the board, all concerns about Doosan’s capability to undertake the project have been dismissed.
The location of the proposed plant is another reason the EC’s board is favouring 1MDB. 1MDB’s proposed site is in Jimah, Negeri
Sembilan, next to the existing 1,400MW coal-fired Jimah Power station that it is acquiring from the Negeri Sembilan royal family. 1MDB’s
injection point is at Olak Lempit, Selangor, which is much closer to the primary load centre in the Klang Valley.
In comparison, YTL Power’s proposed site in Tanjung Tohor, Johor will use the Yong Peng East, Johor as its injection point (a point of
connection where electricity flows into the national grid from generation plant). Since Yong Peng is further from the load centre, there
should be higher transmission losses in the form of energy lost through heat over the distance.
However, some industry players claim it is unlikely that transmission losses alone will be able to justify the 0.43 sen difference in tariff.
They estimate 2% to 3% difference in transmission loss for a 500kv line and about 5% loss for a 275kv line.
On top of that, it was the EC which originally named the five nodal points for bidders to use in their proposals as injection points. Once the
power reaches the injection point, managing transmission losses will be the responsibility of Tenaga Nasional Bhd.
“The tender was to offer a tariff as at the injection point. After that, it is Tenaga’s responsibility. Why would the EC name a nodal point for
bidders to use when it is less than ideal?” asked one industry player.

At a time when electricity tariffs are on the rise, the public will be watching the tender closely. A decision could be made as soon as next
Wednesday when the Cabinet meets again.

Let see how the Cabinet will decide next Wednesday.
