报告摘要：Wireless network capacity has doubled every 30 months for more than three decades since the advent of the cellular phone, a phenomenon widely known as “Coopers Law”, named after the cell phone pioneer Martin Cooper. Like all exponential growths, Cooper’s Law must eventually reach a limit. There have been few studies and little understanding on when the Law will plateau and how close we are to the end of the Law. When Cooper’s Law does plateau, it will pose major challenges to almost all sectors of the high-tech industry. The capability to predict the end of Cooper’s Law and to know the limit of wireless capacity growth is crucial for the high-tech industry sectors to set realistic expectations and growth plans, and avoid the sudden shock that potentially destroys their growth. In this talk, I will introduce our recent research aiming to answer three critically important questions of when Cooper’s Law will end, what may cause the Law to end and how to prolong the lifetime of the Law.
