Explaining Voice over LTE (VoLTE) Voice over LTE, VoLTE technology was devised as a result of operators seeking a standardised system for transferring traffic for voice over LTE. Originally LTE was seen as a completely IP cellular system just for carrying data, and operators would be able to carry voice either by reverting to 2G […]
Are LTE-U and WiFi Co-existence issues looming? You may soon see faster connections on your cellular service. But your Wi-Fi connection may pay the price, due to LTE-U interference with 5GHz WiFi Thanks to a recent regulatory decision, wireless companies like Verizon and T-Mobile will soon be transmitting data in the same part of the […]
Test Types and Parameters for LTE Driving Testing Performing an LTE drive test is an important part of how wireless carriers determine whether their networks are performing well — and get a glimpse into their competitors’ network performance. There are multiple types of LTE drive tests, as well as specific parameters and requirements that should […]
LTE B41 (TD 2500) Band 41 is an LTE operating frequency Band. LTE is designed to work across a number of frequency bands – E-UTRA operating bands- currently ranging from 450 MHz up to 3.8GHz. The available bandwidths are also flexible starting with 1.4 MHz up to 20 MHz with Carrier Aggregation allowing use of […]
New Logo for 5G The 3GPP – the group of worldwide organizations that specify network standards for data transmission – has finalised and released the new 5G logo. Designed for use on Release stage 15 and onwards, they have applied for a trademark and will use the logo to recognize products that meet the new specs, or publications […]
LTE vs LTE Advanced LTE vs LTE Advanced covers difference between LTE and LTE Advanced 3GPP wireless technologies. Both the LTE and LTE-Advanced are fourth generation wireless technologies designed to use for high speed broadband internet access. The specifications are published by 3rd Generation Partnership Project(3GPP). LTE is specified in 3GPP release 8 and LTE […]
LTE-A chipset manufacturers | LTE-A Chipset Vendors Modern LTE CPE devices use advanced chipsets to perform all required signal processing. Globally, there are only a few vendors of LTE chipsets, which all system vendors use in their products. In the evolution of RAT(Radio Access Technologies), LTE specifications have been published in 3GPP release 8-9 […]
What is 5G? 5G radio access technology will be a key component of the Networked Society. It will address high traffic growth and increasing demand for high-bandwidth connectivity. It will also support massive numbers of connected devices and meet the real-time, high-reliability communication needs of mission-critical applications. 5G will provide wireless connectivity for a wide […]
The Roadmap to Gigabit LTE and 5G: Two questions: “Do I need Gigabit LTE?” and “Will mobile networks support these new speeds?” The short answer to both is a resounding “Yes.” Do I need Gigabit LTE? There’s a common misconception that we need to address right away. Some people think that extreme speeds are only realized […]
