T-Mobile: 4G LTE Now Covering Over 157 Million People

in Video, T-Mobile, 4G, LTE

CTO Neville Ray announces that T-Mobile's 4G LTEi network now reaches 157 million people across the United States - far exceeding the company's stated mid-year goal of reaching 100 million people. The advanced 4G network is live in 116 metropolitan areas.

LTE Advanced—The Global 4G Solution

in presentation, Qualcomm, LTE

Qualcomm believes that the next significant performance leap will come from heterogeneous networks, or HetNets, which bring the network closer to the user through low-power nodes such as pico and femto-cells. LTE Advanced uses adaptive interference management techniques to further improve the capacity and coverage of these HetNets.

Innovation in Next Generation LTE Networks

in Video, Webinar, RCR Wireless

As existing TDM mobile networks give way to next generation LTEi networks, carriers are pushing IP, MPLS, CDN and traffic grooming functionality to the edges of the network. The RCR Wireless News team will review mobile operators and their partners, including cable companies and alternative service providers, as they aim to reduce network costs and improve quality of service.

Rohde & Schwarz Webinar: OTA Measurements of LTE MIMO-Enabled Devices

in Video, Webinar, OTA, Rohde & Schwarz, MIMO, LTE

Over-the-air (OTA) measurements are commonly used to determine the wireless system performance of wireless-enabled devices aside from field testing. LTE has introduced MIMO in order to improve network performance. This webinar presents a straightforward and cost-effective solution for LTE MIMO OTA testing to rank radiated MIMO performance.

LTE Standards for Public Safety – 3GPP view

in 3GPP, presentation, Public Safety, LTE

At ’Critical Communications World’ conference, Balazs Bertenyi, the 3GPP SA Chair, recently reported on the latest status of the first 3GPP features for public safety, in particular those covering Proximity services (Direct mode) and Group call.

8x8 MIMO and Carrier Aggregation Test Challenges for LTE

in Video, Agilent, Carrier Aggregation, LTE

The complexity of MIMOi designs, driven by the new LTEi standards, is further increased as MIMO systems scale up to 8x8 configurations. Moreover, other requirements such as beamforming and carrier aggregation drive the need for test solutions that provide deep insight within these multiple domains.

Small Cells and Backhaul Deployment Strategies

Device mobility in EUTRA/LTE, including SRVCC

in Video, Webinar, EUTRA, Rohde & Schwarz, SRVCC, LTE

Mobilityi is an essential part of LTEi technology due to LTE's initial hotspot deployment. This webinar will provide insight into mobility procedures in LTE and relevant measurement events. It will also explain aspects of handovers from LTE to 3G or 2G with an active IP multimedia subsystem (IMS)-based voice call (voice over LTE, VoLTE) known as single radio voice call continuity (SRVCCi).
