Agencies across the U.S. are preparing for the nation’s first cellular broadband network dedicated to public safety. This network will provide more reliable communication for first responders, enabling better device interoperability across different agencies.
With this new technology, first responder vehicles, traffic control and transit...
Enterprises have a plethora of choices in their wireless networks -- but with a wealth of choices comes tough decisions about network management, maintenance, optimization and troubleshooting.
RCR Wireless News breaks down the pros and cons of Wi-Fi and various flavors of cellular networks (small...
Wi-Fi’s massive success (more than half of mobile device traffic is over Wi-Fi) has not stopped Wi-Fi from evolving. Wi-Fi continues to improve in performance, ease of use, and its ability to meet demanding use cases, such as voice, real-time high-definition video, IoT applications,...
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...
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...
Telecom operators are well positioned to take advantage of the growing commercial unmanned aerial vehicles (drone) market. Many operators have already embraced drones as an efficient and cost effective way to improve network operations and maintenance.
RCR Wireless News explores the role of drones in...
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...
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 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...
AT&T is moving forward with its nationwide build of a public safety LTE network for the First Responders Network Authority, or FirstNet, equipped with priority and preemption -- but the move to a broadband cellular network for first responders isn't the only technology evolution...
