For full system SoC verification, hardware emulation has sufficient execution speed, visibility and ease-of-use to span the entire range of verification needs throughout the life of the design development process.
The lines are blurring between commercial LTE networks operated by mobile carriers, and the network options available to private enterprises.
Until recently, enterprises were unable to use LTE for their private wireless networks because LTE requires licensed spectrum. Today, however, new spectrum sharing technologies and...

In the last 30-years, tastes and preferences have shifted toward 24/7 connectivity. As older generations have adopted the new technology, younger generations have grown with it, and vast industries have embedded it into their operations, electronic companies have expanded their service offerings, thereby placing...
A team of researchers from KU Leuven created a network of software defined radios that can simultaneously transmit and detect harmful interference using in-band full duplex technique which results in an ultra-efficient network with double the throughput. Read the case study and download the...
There are many reasons why in-building cellular coverage can be challenging. The placement of cell towers, geographical terrain, or building materials can all play a role in poor in-building coverage. Even where there is a proliferation of cellular towers, there can be topographic or...
Mobile workforces present unique connectivity challenges when compared to a traditional office environment. Traveling along bumpy roads, traversing service areas, and powering devices using a vehicle battery are factors requiring special considerations and planning.
A total solution should take into account all aspects of virtual...
Nextivity CEO Werner Sievers discusses drivers of IBW capex and opex
After years of focused market education and outreach, building owners and enterprise decision makers have arrived at the realization that in-building wireless connectivity is an essential part of enabling business value in increasingly mobile...
Nearly 72% of Americans experience dropped calls, slow internet, and poor cellular coverage. With 80% of cell phone use made indoors, it has a significant impact on businesses and productivity.
SignalBoosters.com and Coleman Parkes Research examine the bottom line impact on revenue, productivity, and employer-employee...
What drives the capacity beast? Traffic!
According to GSMA, 4G mobile connections surpassed one billion in 2015. Additionally, 3 billion LTE devices are expected to ship by 2020, doubling the quantity in 2017. Although 4G connections represented only 26% of mobile connections in 2016, they...
Network densification remains one of the greatest challenges facing mobile operators as they look to implement 5G, add 4G capacity and increase user speeds. However, achieving massive densification requires a new approach to small cell deployments, from site acquisition to RF planning, integration with...
Smart cities offer a wide range of benefits, from costs savings to livability, safety and security, resilience, and sustainability. However, the positive impact on economic development is another critical benefit, one which is not often mentioned and not well understood. However, economic development should...
Smart cities offer a wide range of benefits, from costs savings to livability, safety and security, resilience, and sustainability. However, the positive impact on economic development is another critical benefit, one which is not often mentioned and not well understood. However, economic development should...
The positive impact of smart city technologies on economic development could see cities locking in incremental growth of almost 3% and driving more than $20 trillion in additional economic benefits over the coming decade. These are the findings of a new white paper by...
Many customers don’t think it’s possible to have experience, security, and choice in a single solution. They think a great user-experience comes at the cost of security, or vice-versa. They fear vendor lock-in, but also feel paralyzed in the face of overwhelming complexity. However,...
February 22 is a big date in the history of mobile broadband for several reasons. On that date last year, the FCC approved the first devices using LTE-U, a new technology that brought the benefits of LTE cellular technology into unlicensed spectrum, enabling consumers to...
As 2G and 3G networks shut down, more and more IoT devices need to quickly migrate to next-G capability. Get ahead of impending network sunsets with a better understanding of what to plan for when migrating to 4G and beyond.
See how you can...
SOLiD’s GENESIS DAS: An enterprise-friendly approach to in-building wireless
The vast majority of mobile data usage comes from inside buildings as enterprises increasingly depend on smartphones and tablets to get the job done. Despite this trend, there’s a huge, underserved commercial building market--office buildings, retail...
3GPP brought us a step closer to achieving the ambitious vision of 20Gbps data rates for mobile wireless with the completion of the non-Standalone (NSA) part of Release 15 in December last year. The systems that mobile operators will need to use to realize...
Security and simplicity drive enterprise investment in the IoT
Although complexity and security have slowed adoption, taking advantage of the money-saving benefits enabled by the Internet of Things is top-of-mind for enterprise decision-makers. With the pending commercialization of standards-based 5G networks, support for secure, massively-scaled...
Full-spectrum, all-fiber DAS provides cost-effective in-building solution for the enterprise
The move from LTE to 5G encompasses many other important changes taking place in the telecoms industry. Licensed spectrum is being augmented with unlicensed and shared spectrum, virtualization is making networks more dynamic and cheaper...
Now that 5G is getting closer to deployment, what are the killer apps going to be that push 5G forward into broad deployment? It is said that 5G could be the next "General Purpose Technology", but will 5G influential enough to push the technology...
Mobile network operators (MNOs) have been driven to upgrade their cell towers through fierce competition to provide higher bandwidth and quality of service. Typical Internet traffic has been constantly increasing. Mobile video traffic by the usual suspects—YouTube, Vine, Netflix, just to name a few—is...
This white paper reviews the latest trends in the radio access networks (RANs) of mobile networks, including the evolution to Cloud-RAN, virtualized architectures. Although it can be difficult to make accurate predictions for some technologies, we are fortunate in the case of future RAN...
