Interference from both illegal and unintentional signals is a significant problem for mobile service providers, security services and government regulators. For wireless network operators, various issues such as dropped calls, blocked calls and degraded data throughput often result from interference signals. New ways are...
As mobile networks become more heterogeneous in order to support ever-increasing indoor and outdoor capacity needs, testing must take into consideration operators' infrastructure choices. In advanced wireless networks, that can include LTE macro sites, indoor or outdoor small cells, and distributed antenna systems (iDAS...
Cellular base station installations are changing from the traditional ground or cabinet based radio installations to remote radio head, fiber to the antenna and small cell installations where the radios are installed close to the antennas or the antennas are integral to the radios...
Diameter Signaling Controllers (DSC) are specialized network appliances designed to provide network security and handle large volumes of Diameter signals for LTE networks. A key function of the DSC is to simplify operations by providing a central point to monitor and control the network....
Workplace diversity is an issue that affects everyone, and we all miss opportunities when our workplaces cannot accommodate people with disabilities. This webinar will explore inclusion through the lens of a company that is on the forefront: AT&T. AT&T’s Director of Global Public Policy will discuss...
The growing demand for connectivity everywhere continues to push operators’ networks to the limit, exposing holes in their coverage and capacity, especially in dense, urban areas. By 2020, cellular data traffic in the U.S. will exceed available macro capacity by almost 90%. This increased...
NFV Laying the foundation for a new way to run mobile networks
Virtualization will change the way mobile operators run their networks and the way the mobile ecosystem works. In this webinar we will explore how the transition to virtualized networks with NFV will happen...
Small Cells, ranging from Femtocells in domestic applications, through Pico, Metro and Micro Cells in enterprise, and urban applications are revolutionizing the coverage, capacity and availability of wireless data services. The apparently insatiable demand for more and faster data is driving increasingly rapid deployment of...
Service assurance has been an ongoing struggle for wireless carriers as they look to balance their spectrum and network assets with growing consumer demand. Advances in software have become the latest tools use by mobile operators, including the move towards virtualization in order to...
Ever increasing network and device complexity has increased the impact of device-network interaction on the subscriber’s experience. Unfortunately, testing has not yet caught up and instead remains focused on device-specific or network-specific KPIs. Operators, infrastructure and device vendors may all profit from a new...
As mobile operators focus on the need for network densification, the companies that supply and service the carriers are exploring the business models and technologies that can enable successful DAS and small cell deployments. The DAS model is proven in large venues, but the...
Explosive mobile traffic growth, largely driven by the proliferation of LTE mobile devices, new broadband technologies and Internet video content, have caused a tremendous increase in network messaging volume that can overwhelm critical LTE network elements and degrade services for a large number of...
RCR Wireless News explores recent developments and advances in the collection and analysis of data across the telecom operator's broad horizontal view: from business systems, the network and devices. Distilling data from those sources into actionable intelligence remains a challenge, with automation an area...
Wireless carriers cannot roll out 4G networks without the contractors and subcontractors who bring next generation networks from vision to reality. Infrastructure service providers work hand-in--hand with mobile network operators, but some of these relationships are shifting as AT&T and Verizon shift their focus...
Finding connected cars on the road today are not common, but GSMA Connected Car Forum reports 20% of global vehicle sales will have "embedded connectivity solutions" and over 50% will be connected by tethering or integrating a smart phone by the end of 2015....
Wireless infrastructure will generate an estimated 30,000 net new jobs between now and 2017, and related industries will generate an additional 1.2 million jobs in the United States. While construction and tower climbing remain male-dominated industries, many of the industries enabled by wireless technology...
VoLTE (Voice over LTE) differs from traditional circuit-switched voice in a variety of ways. This webinar provides field engineers with a practical overview of the most important issues in the testing and troubleshooting of VoLTE networks.
Topics covered include:
analyzing and troubleshooting call setup and handover/fallback,
measurement...
