Mobile operators are looking for ways to provide a remarkable and differentiated user experience. Maintaining an accurate frequency and phase synchronization between radio access and mobile core network is an easy way to achieve this objective. For more information, download Juniper’s White Paper about LTE-Advanced Ready Timing Solution.

Telecom analytics is one of the most exciting areas in the wireless business. In a very competitive environment, carriers have to give a deeper look at how they manage all data they have in order to give them advantages and monetization opportunities. Information without any intelligence is just data. In this scenario, analytics tools for [...]

RCR Wireless takes a look at the regulatory challenges facing the wireless industry, including spectrum issues, potential for additional spectrum auctions, regulations on the second-hand spectrum market, M&A regulations and sitting challenges. As a special bonus, we will provide an annual FirstNet update. Bonus: FirstNet Public Safety Update Presented by CCA

International communication doesn’t have to be complex. In this white paper, you’ll discover the challenges organizations with international travelers face to strike an appropriate balance between ease of use for those focused on being productive when traveling internationally, and the cost of using non-domestic mobile network services. The “right” balance will align with the company’s [...]

Software is becoming a key differentiator for mobile devices and networks, and companies throughout the wireless ecosystem are competing for software talent. Carriers, device manufacturers, chip makers, and test and measurement companies all need software engineers, as do communications and telecom software companies. Telecom and wireless recruiters find themselves competing with each other and with [...]

Three major trends are converging to offer service providers the opportunity to better understand their networks and their opportunities to monetize them and reduce churn: The transition to all-IP, LTE networks; the accelerating trend toward cloud connectivity and network virtualization; and big data collection and processing. But how can that data be turned into actionable [...]

RCR Wireless News takes a deep dive into the current small cell space as it relates to LTE deployments, talking with carriers, analysts and equipment and technology providers on how the market is currently playing out and where they expect the market to be headed in the coming 12 months. The report tackles the subject [...]

Dominated by the two largest Latin American telecom operators, Peru’s wireless market still holds promise. As observers have noted, there is room to grow in Peru as mobile penetration is at 96%, 2G services accounts for 91% of the total market and 76% of mobile lines are via prepaid. Evolving technologies and more carrier competition [...]

Cable and Antenna Test: Introduces measurement and calibration techniques for cable and antenna testing (CAT). Measurement examples are provided for cable insertion loss, return loss, VSWR and distance-to-fault (DTF) testing. Antenna measurements are also discussed and several examples of return loss and antenna-to-antenna isolation are provided. This white paper is presented by Agilent Technologies.

The number of LTE devices and manufacturers is exploding. This special report explores how the transition to LTE networks is changing the device ecosystem from design to test and repair, and the factors that affect a successful LTE device launch. Spectrum fragmentation, the proliferation of MIMO antennas in LTE-Advanced, and making a smooth voice transition [...]
