Evolving network and software technologies are providing customer relationship management (CRM) platforms with greater insight into what consumers expect from mobile services, which is coming at a time when the telecom space is seeing increased competition from rival operators, OTT...
Organizations of all sizes have been migrating to the cloud for increased flexibility, accessibility, and cost efficiency. While the benefits of shortened deployment times, lower CAPEX, pay-as-you-go convenience, and technology independence are well documented, the cloud subscribers face challenges in the area of data...
The introduction of Carrier Aggregation in LTE Release 10 (LTE Advanced) allows network operators to dramatically improve throughput performance by combining multiple LTE downlink carriers from different frequency bands.
In this webinar, Rohde & Schwarz will present a technical overview of carrier aggregation and...
Please join ABI Research and Corning for the 2015 Outlook for Indoor Wireless Technologies, which will include highlights of ABI Research’s study: “DAS Rises to the Small Cell Challenge.”
During this webinar, the panelists will discuss the benefits of fiber optics and converged DAS, Wireless...
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...
