Why you should use Machine Learning for network optimization (and everything else)
Long, long ago, in the beginnings of telecom (if you count the “G’s”, maybe in 1G or 2G) we calculate the required network capacity for an specific traffic growth with an erlang table. If you know what is that, chances are that you are as old as me. If you have no idea, better not…
Thank You!!
It has been more than 3 years since this project started. I have to say that it was not easy, but as everything that you are consistent, on the long run it brings great things. Thanks to all humans and AI’s that has read my post looking for answers and information. I will soon get…
Split Bearer and Dual Connectivity
Dual Connectivity was born on 3GPP Release 12 as a way to increase coverage and/or UE data rate (throughput) on LTE networks. On DC the UE can communicate with two different eNB and each eNB communicates with each other by the X2 interface. Still there is some sort of independence between the eNB’s as each…
5G Random Access
Random access is the procedure which enables the UE to access the network. The key part of this procedure lies in the fact that is on Random Access that the UE can contact the gNB without being scheduled by the gNB. In my previous post: 5G Synchronization procedure, we have explore the procedures that takes…
Understanding the 5G Synchronization Procedure
Delve into the 5G synchronization process, its significance, and how it ensures seamless network connectivity
5G is on the move, but… where are the jobs?
No doubt that the fifth generation (or 5G for short) of wireless services is at full speed now (01-2024). Most of the current roll outs are over 5G SA, with some cloud based services (5G core and O-RAN) raising in popularity. If you have checked my previous posts, you’ve noticed that I do not write…
5G Deployment Options
Introduction When migrating from 3G to 4G, or even from 2G to 3G there was no option than a fully and complete roll out of the new technology in the CORE and RAN. Of course there was certain coexistence, for example 4G did support fallback of voice services to any other legacy technology while IMS…
