In the context of 5G (Fifth Generation) wireless communication, there isn’t a specific term or concept referred to as the “master node.” However, we can discuss various elements in the 5G network architecture that play central and coordinating roles. These elements collectively contribute to the efficient functioning of the network. Let’s explore some of the … Read more

In 5G (Fifth Generation) wireless communication, Frequency Range 1 (FR1) is the frequency band that encompasses sub-6 GHz frequencies. This frequency range is crucial for providing widespread coverage and supporting a variety of use cases. The maximum bandwidth in 5G FR1 depends on the specific frequency band within this range. The 5G NR (New Radio) … Read more

In the context of 5G (Fifth Generation) wireless communication, there is no specific reference to a “TB size” as a standard term or specification within the 5G specifications. However, I can provide information related to data capacity and storage considerations in the broader context of 5G networks. Data Capacity and Throughput: 5G networks are designed … Read more

In 5G (Fifth Generation) wireless communication, the Transport Block (TB) size refers to the amount of data that can be transmitted in a single block over the air interface. The maximum Transport Block size in 5G is determined by various factors, including the channel bandwidth, modulation scheme, and coding rate. The formula for calculating the … Read more

The interface in 5G Non-Standalone (NSA) architecture plays a crucial role in enabling communication and coordination between different network elements. NSA is a deployment scenario in 5G where the 5G radio access network (New Radio or NR) is deployed alongside the existing 4G LTE infrastructure. The interface in 5G NSA involves interactions between the evolved … Read more

In 5G (Fifth Generation) wireless communication, the kSSB (Known Synchronization Signal Block) is a critical component related to synchronization and cell search procedures. It is specifically associated with the synchronization signals used by user devices (UEs) to establish initial communication with a 5G base station. The kSSB is part of the synchronization signals transmitted by … Read more

Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC) is one of the key use cases for 5G technology, aiming to provide extremely low latency and high reliability for mission-critical applications. Latency refers to the time delay between the transmission of data from the source (sender) to the reception of that data by the destination (receiver). In the context … Read more

The interface between the Mobility Management Entity (MME) and Serving Gateway (SGW) in a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network is crucial for the proper functioning of the network architecture. The MME and SGW are key components of the Evolved Packet Core (EPC), which is responsible for managing the mobility and connectivity of user devices in LTE … Read more

In 5G, the interface between the Next Generation NodeB (gNB) and the Evolved NodeB (eNB) is referred to as the Xn interface. The Xn interface plays a crucial role in facilitating communication and coordination between gNBs and eNBs, allowing for interoperability and support for various features in the radio access network. Here’s a detailed explanation … Read more

In the 5G architecture, the interface between the gNB (Next Generation NodeB) and the UPF (User Plane Function) is referred to as the N3 interface. The N3 interface is a critical link that facilitates communication between the gNB, responsible for radio communication with User Equipment (UE), and the UPF, which handles the user plane data … Read more
