The difference between LTE and LTE+ lies in their respective technologies and capabilities. LTE, which stands for Long Term Evolution, is a standard for wireless broadband communication and is often referred to as 4G. LTE+ (also known as LTE Advanced) is an enhanced version of LTE. LTE+ offers improved performance through the use of carrier … Read more
The function of SRVCC, or Single Radio Voice Call Continuity, is to ensure that voice calls can seamlessly continue when a user moves between different network technologies, such as from LTE (4G) to 2G or 3G networks. SRVCC allows for the transfer of an ongoing voice call from an LTE network to a legacy circuit-switched … Read more
LTE450 refers to a specific implementation of LTE (Long-Term Evolution) technology that operates in the 450 MHz frequency band. This variant of LTE is designed to offer mobile broadband services in rural and underserved areas where lower frequencies provide better coverage and signal penetration. LTE450 can deliver data rates and performance similar to other LTE … Read more
In telecommunications, a Tracking Area Code (TAC) is a unique identifier used to designate a specific area within a network where mobile devices can be tracked. The TAC helps the network manage device locations and support efficient handovers as devices move between different tracking areas. It is an essential component in both 4G and 5G … Read more
MNC stands for Mobile Network Code, MCC stands for Mobile Country Code, and LAC stands for Location Area Code. The MNC is a code that identifies a specific mobile network operator within a country, the MCC identifies the country itself, and the LAC is used to identify a particular area within the network’s coverage region. … Read more
Yes, there was a 1G network, which refers to the first generation of mobile telecommunication systems. The 1G network primarily used analog technology to provide basic voice communication services. It was the first step in the evolution of mobile networks, marking the beginning of mobile telecommunications. There are no 1G networks left in operation today. … Read more
How Does VoLTE Affect Battery Life? Today, we’re going to discuss how VoLTE (Voice over LTE) affects battery life on your device. As we’ve learned in earlier articles, VoLTE is a technology that allows voice calls to be made over the LTE network rather than the traditional 2G or 3G networks. This means that you … Read more
OFDMA MU-MIMO (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access Multi-User Multiple Input Multiple Output) is a combination of two advanced technologies used to improve wireless network performance. OFDMA divides a channel into smaller sub-channels, allowing multiple users to transmit data simultaneously. MU-MIMO extends this capability by using multiple antennas to communicate with several devices at the same … Read more
A gNB (gNodeB) in 5G is the base station component that connects user equipment (UE) to the 5G network. It handles radio communication and controls the radio access network (RAN) functions, similar to the eNodeB in LTE networks but designed for the higher capabilities and features of 5G. What is gNB in 5G? gNB (gNodeB) … Read more
The range of a 5G mobile signal varies depending on the frequency band used. Low-band 5G, also known as Sub-6 GHz, can cover several kilometers and offers better penetration through buildings and obstacles. Mid-band 5G typically covers hundreds of meters to a few kilometers, balancing coverage and speed. High-band 5G, or millimeter waves, generally provides … Read more
