When it comes to the in-building wireless market, systems integrators have typically been defined by the type of cellular coverage solutions they offer and the types of customers they are willing to service.
There are big iron DAS integrators that only do massive venues of...
The First Responder Network was created to provide a nationwide, prioritized communication network for first responders and public health and safety agencies. This initiative creates a significant business opportunities for companies with the knowledge and expertise to create the robust, interoperable devices first responders...
Connecting flying objects has been discussed in documents describing the uses and evolution of LTE networks, both in 4G and in the future 5G. Moreover, a dedicated report entitled: Study On Enhanced Support for Aerial Vehicles, was approved by the 3GPP in March of...
When new business opportunities come up, you need to be able to jump on them. Today, it’s voice over LTE (VoLTE) but in the very near future it will 5G, IoT, and whatever comes next. In all cases, that means building a dynamic network...
The 3GPP RAN Plenary meeting that is taking place in San Diego on the second week of June is expected to define the next set of 5G NR Study Items, paving the path to future Work Items that will start as early as the...
The quarterly 3GPP RAN Plenary Meeting in San Diego, California, marks two important milestones that will take us another step closer to our vision for 5G— a unifying connectivity fabric that will expand the reach of mobile to new services, deployments, and spectrum types:
The...
The Net Promoter Score (NPS) has emerged as a popular tool across industries for measuring and gaining insight into satisfaction ratings and whether a customer is likely to recommend a particular good or service. Many telecom service providers have adopted the NPS methodology, and...
While 5G could be deployed without Artificial Intelligence (AI) and edge compute, intelligent edge will be essential to new revenues and lower costs for 5G.

Traditionally, development kits and advanced toolsets allow designers to quickly and efficiently leverage new technologies. Integrating and aggregating In-Building wireless architectures is one of those areas where development expertise can help engineering teams rapidly and seamlessly adopt new technologies and bring them to market...
Mobile Network Operators simply cannot unleash the tremendous speed and capacity of 5G network technology on the operations infrastructure without a great deal of preparation. And with approximately a two-year window before 5G is deployed at any meaningful scale, the time to prepare is...
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...
While 5G trials are underway with commercial deployments a few years out, service providers are looking for solutions that can help them overcome capacity challenges in a cost-effective manner. With innovations in later releases of 3GPP, now service providers can offer Gigabit LTE service...
As they face innovations in new services, rising customer expectations, and intense competition, operators look for fresh ways to obtain and deliver new efficiencies, better quality, new revenue, and a better customer experience. One way is by turning to data analytics. There is, however,...
The MNO’s RAN performance team noticed that the operations support system (OSS) flagged the presence of an RF noise issue in the network based on high uplink (UL) received signal strength indicator (RSSI) levels.
In order to take a closer look and attempt to diagnose...
Last December, the entire mobile industry reached a significant milestone for 5G. The 5G NR Release-15 Non-Standalone (NSA) specifications were completed at the 3GPP RAN Plenary meeting held in Lisbon, Portugal. These are the first specifications that define the global 5G standard, covering spectrums...
Mobile data traffic has grown 18-fold over the past 5 years, and shows no signs of slowing down. In the effort to provide adequate service, the ecosystem (in all its components) continues to innovate with new technologies, and to densify wireless networks both indoors...
Addressing cellular infrastructure for small to mid-size (SME) enterprise has hit a major challenge in terms of who pays for the in-building system.
Carriers are often willing to subsidize enterprise solutions for large-scale customers (usually in the form of a classic DAS), but the ROI...
Explosive applications growth. Massive bandwidth needs. Enabling 5G network densification for both fixed and mobile wireless is a high priority for operators.
The use of millimeter microwave technologies is rapidly gaining traction to support fixed broadband connections encompassing a broad range of wireless applications related...
Mobile Edge Cloud, Mobile Edge Computing, Multi-Access Edge Computing. These are all names for basically the same concept that Wikipedia defines as, "a network architecture concept that enables cloud computing capabilities and IT service environment at the edge of the cellular network." Regardless of...
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...
Computer vision is powering advances in automotive, medical, consumer, and agriculture markets. Because the world of computer vision coupled with machine learning evolves so quickly, teams need a way to design and verify an algorithm while the specifications and requirements evolve without starting over...
