Flexible Digital Transport That Improves Wireless Coverage, Capacity and Customer Retention
IntroductionSome things never change. Despite the ongoing proliferation for advanced wireless services, service providers must continually address the largest threat to their business-inconsistent voice and data services coverage.Subscribers demand coverage when and where they need it. Inconsistent coverage compromises service and leads to subscriber churn. Traditional methods for improving coverage consistency-including additional macrocell towers and analog radio heads-cannot effectively provide coverage for dense environments nor accommodate increasing demands for capacity and spectrum use.It's time for wireless service providers to deliver scalable, distributed antenna solutions to better address the ever changing environment. Scalable digital transport solutions enable service providers to provide superior coverage and significantly reduce maintenance costs.TFlexWave Universal Radio Head Flexible Digital Transport That Improves Wireless Coverage, Capacity and Customer Retention
Digital Transport Extends Coverage, Why Choose Digital?Reduces Expenses . Superior dynamic range: Contrary to analog A wide range of advanced wireless services- systems, fiber loss and noise have virtually no effect including smart phones, high-speed Internet and on RF transport and system noise. Digital RF signals video streaming-are now readily available via are regenerated with identical performance to create implementation of 3G technologies. Unfortunately, 3G a consistent digital bit stream.implementation often compromises signal consistency. . Independent bands: Due to the digitization of It results in reduced coverage patterns within existing the RF signal, multiple frequency bands can be coverage footprints, which can produce coverage holes transported, or recreated at full dynamic range, throughout the network. over a single strand of fiber without interfering Service providers must meet the demand for more with one another.bandwidth-intensive services within the limited . Digital simulcast: Up to eight remote units can be spectrum available to them. As a result, they will digitally simulcast from a single host unit, without need to promote maximum frequency re-use in the use of external RF plumbing. Simulcast ratios their networks. can be easily reconfigured via easy-to-use element Macrocell towers are popular options to increase management software.coverage and capacity within specific locations. . Digital delay settings: Digital fiber transport allows Unfortunately, they are not feasible in many areas delay settings to be programmed electronically. It where a lack of coverage affects a large number eliminates time-consuming and labor-intensive fiber of subscribers (e.g., municipalities), because they spooling, which makes deployment and system are deemed unflattering on the local landscape. In maintenance easier for service providers. addition, city centers are too congested; subways . Flexible architecture: A scalable modular system and tunnels are too restrictive; and campuses and sealed in an environmentally protected enclosure government buildings have prohibitive zoning can be installed with a limited number of bands and regulations. As a result, service providers have had to expanded easily as the network evolves.seek alternative options, including distributed antenna systems (DAS). . Intuitive management: Simplified management and provisioning minimizes dependent gain and fiber length adjustments in the field.
