The S-Band is a portion of the radio frequency (RF) spectrum in the microwave range, typically spanning 1.7 to 2.6 GHz, although it is often specified as 2 to 4 […]
Why is S-Band Important for Satellite NB-IoT?
What is Deep Packet Inspection (DPI)?
Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is a technology that enables the network owner to analyze internet traffic through the network in real-time and differentiate it according to its payload. Since this […]
What is the Passive Optical Network (PON) ?
A passive optical network (PON) is a fiber-optic access technology that distributes fiber-optic signals to multiple users through a passive splitter, achieving the goal of fiber-to-the-home (FTTH). PON technology has […]
What is Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)?
CDMA is another pure digital technique. It is also known as the spread spectrum because it takes the digitized version of an analog signal and spreads it out over a wider […]
What is 5G Core SBA (Service based architecture)?
Compared to previous generations the 3GPP 5G system architecture is Service-Based Architecture (SBA). That means wherever suitable the architectural elements are defined as network functions that offer their services via […]
What is the difference between 5G FR1 and FR2 Spectrum Bands?
5G NR includes several low and mid-frequency bands in the sub-7 GHz range, defined as FR1, as well as higher frequency bands above 24 GHz, defined as FR2/mmWave. 5G frequency […]
What does the Open RAN architecture look like?
In many networks, the RAN represents the last stronghold of proprietary hardware and software. While the mobile core is progressing to a virtualized, cloud-based architecture, the RAN remains rooted in […]
Is There Power Control in LTE?
LTE power control is applied to uplink transmission only. There is no downlink power control. The objective of power control in LTE is to reduce terminal power consumption and minimize […]
How 5G is more flexible than 4G?
5G-NR transmissions are more flexible than their predecessor technologies. 5G-NR signals can be transmitted using different numerology, which is summarized below in Table. The numerology is parameterized using an index […]
What is Accelerator Card?
Hardware accelerator cards accelerate data processing and relieve some of the burdens from the CPUs, to enable operators and infrastructure vendors the ability to maximize the benefits of high performance, […]
What is Service Communication Proxy (SCP) in 5G?
The Service Communication Proxy (SCP) is a new HTTP/2-based network function enabling dynamic scaling and management of communication and services in the 5G network. The SCP has a role that […]
