Narrow Band-IOT UE Attach Call Flow Messaging
When a NB-IOT UE accesses a cell, it follows the same principle as for LTE: It first searches a cell on an appropriate frequency. Decode NPSS and NSSS for NCellID. […]
Narrow Band Synchronization Signals (NPSS and NSSS)
The NPSS and NSSS helps UE to synchronize downlink to an NB-IoT cell. These are transmitted in certain subframes based on an 80-ms repetition interval. By synchronizing to NPSS and […]
Narrow Band-Physical Broadcast Channel (NPBCH)
NPBCH stands for narrow band physical broadcast channel similar to PBCH in LTE Technology. The NPBCH is used to deliver the NB-IoT Master Information Block (MIB), which provides essential information […]
What is LTE-LAA and its co-existence with other technologies
Licensed-assisted access (LAA) is a 3GPP enhancement of Long-Term Evolution (LTE) to allow cellular network operators to offload some of their data traffic by accessing the unlicensed 5 GHz frequency […]
5G NR Bandwidth Part (BWP)
A Bandwidth Part is a contiguous set of physical resource blocks (PRBs) on a given carrier. These RBs are selected from a contiguous subset of the common resource blocks for […]
5G NR Reference Signals (DMRS, PTRS,SRS and CSI-RS)
To increase protocol efficiency, and to keep transmissions contained within a slot or beam without having to depend on other slots and beams, NR introduces the following four main reference […]
Accent Systems Solution: IOT Tracker with LTE and Beacon Technologies
Accent Systems introduces its new LTE device. It’s an IoT tracker with LTE and beacon technologies, designed to get maximum efficiency and precision in indoor and outdoor locations. It allows you to […]
5G Cell Phone Architecture
5G cell phones has to be designed to comply either 3GPP New Radio (NR) Release 15 and also need to support legacy radio access technologies . Intial, 5G cell phones […]
Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS), Frequency Spectrum, Operation Modes and Its Applications
Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) is a 150 MHz wide broadcast band in 3.5 GHz band starting from 3550 MHz to 3700 MHz. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulates interstate and international communications by radio, […]
Citizens Broadband Radio Service Device(CBSD), Its Types and OEMs
Citizens Broadband Radio Service Device(CBSD): As per FCC, an eNodeB which is capable to support CBRS band is referred as Citizens Broadband Radio Service Device. LTE band B42 and B43 […]
