BROWSING: RF over CPRI

The radio access network is becoming more complex, with cell-site fronthaul architectures ranging from conventional coax to modern fiber. Fiber is increasingly prevalent in all types of cell sites including macrosites, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and small cells. Spectrum congestion compounds this complexity. Congestion creates interference problems,...

JDSU has added the ability to analyze radio frequency characteristics over the Common Public Radio Interface, or CPRI, specification for base stations. The company said it is the first in the industry to introduce integrated CPRI support on a base station analyzer, its CellAdvisor...
