Lesson 16: Wireless Wide Area Networks Flashcards
(73 cards)
ACRONYM: UMTS
Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service
4G is to be at least how many Mbps and up to how many Gbps?
- 100 Mbps
- 1 Gbps
ACRONYM: IS-95
Interim Standard 95
They are used to carry analog voice over channels in the 800 MHz frequency band.
Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (FDMA)
ACRONYM: EV-DO
Evolution Data Optimized
ACRONYM: IMT-2000
International Mobile Telecommunications – 2000
It used Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) to multiplex up to 64 calls per channel in the 800 MHz band.
IS-95
ACRONYM: FDE
Frequency-domain equalization
ACRONYM: FDMA
Frequency Division Multiplexing Access
EV-DO Rev. 0 became available in what year?
2004
1xRTT became available in what year?
2002
3GPP Technologies:
- General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)
- Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution (EDGE)
- UMTS Wideband CDMA (WCDMA)
- High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA)
- Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service (UMTS)
- LTE Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA)
Wireless System: A term used to describe the next-generation of mobile networks beyond the 4G LTE mobile
networks of today.
5G
Wireless System: The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) defined the ____________ of mobile telephony standards IMT-2000 (International Mobile Telecommunications – 2000) to facilitate growth, increase
bandwidth, and support more diverse applications
Third Generation (3G)
Across the world, many
operators adopted the ________________ communication standard, which used Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) to multiplex up to 8 calls per channel in the 900 and 1800 MHz bands.
Global System for Mobile (GSM)
Two distinct 3G families:
- 3GPP
- 3GPP2
ACRONYM: WCDMA
Wideband CDMA
ACRONYM: GPRS
General Packet Radio Service
Considered by many to be the natural successor to current-generation 3G technologies, in part because it updates UMTS networks to provide significantly faster data rates for both uploading and downloading.
Long-Term Evolution (LTE)
Bandwidth of 3G and 4G?
5-20 MHz
ACRONYM: LTE
Long-Term Evolution
ACRONYM: E-UTRA
Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access
A 3GPP technology where it is aiming for 100 Mbps.
LTE Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service (UMTS) Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA)
These early networks used Frequency Division Multiplexing Access
(FDMA) to carry analog voice over channels in the 800 MHz frequency band.
AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone Service)
