This document summarizes T-Mobile's role as a leader in the Next Generation Mobile Networks (NGMN) initiative. It outlines T-Mobile's "always connected" vision and discusses how Moore's Law is driving exponential growth in broadband demand. The document then reviews the evolution of mobile technologies like 2G, 3G, and 4G LTE, and describes NGMN's goals of delivering a high-quality user experience at sustainable costs. It concludes by discussing T-Mobile's trials of NGMN technology and the keys to its successful adoption.

Global success of GSM will require long phase-out period
Deployment and Operation of multiple networks too expensive
NGMN needs to be an upgrade of GSM/UMTS with maximum re-use of
network assets
Migrate to “One network layer” => GSM “emulated in NGMN base
stations”?
