| Summary |
This book provides the latest innovative and strategic thinking on 4G and LTE deployments. It evaluates design and deployment options in depth and offers roadmap evolution strategies for LTE network business development. The book examines specific features of the network, while covering specific architectural deployment strategies through example and then assessing their implications on both near- and long-term operations as well as potential evolutionary paths. Coverage includes how to: plan for accessibility, retainability, integrity, availability, and mobility; balance loads effectively; manage the constraints arising from regulation and standardization; and manage the many disruptive factors affecting LTE networks. -- Edited summary from book |
