M2M communications offers plethora of opportunities to – right from product manufacturers to service providers to mobile network operators and to the end-users in generating significant value out of this service. M2M communication service is a game changer in a way the machines communicate directly with one another for example: over-the-air upgrades, updates, monitoring, troubleshooting, security, information extraction, tracking, etc. M2M service is possible in almost any future device in house or office which possesses the potential to access internet or a broadband connection

With Verizon Wireless, Metro PCS, Sprint and T-Mobile quite clear with their NGN roadmap, all eyes are glued on to AT&T on its NGN roadmap.The case here is whether the big blue operator should roll out HSPA+ or jump directly to LTE or even both.

2G to 4G
Mobile users has moved from second generation satisfying their” voice” communication needs to the third generation networks for their voice and data communication needs. Now, with the next generation networks(NGN) like LTE promising to offer a plethora of services at significant speeds to satisfy the users completely, right from voice to streaming multimedia More >

The licensing of the 2.6 GHz band will be critical to unlocking the benefits of global scale economies in the Mobile Broadband market. The outcome of 2.6GHz allocation will have far-reaching consequences for how the adoption dynamics of WiMAX and 3GPP (such as HSPA and, in future, LTE) will play out in this region since 2.6 GHz is the first arena where the two proponents will be battling each other in the same area of spectrum.So let’s jump in discussing and analyzing about the 2.6GHz band its importance, what’s in store and bulleting the future of mobile broadband.

In the previous blog LBS Part I we discussed about the different Location technologies and their comparisons on different parameters with their advantages/disadvantages. Today we will see how these positioning technologies integrate with the network architecture in different Wireless Standards (3GPP, 3GPP2, OMA, WiMAX, LTE)
We will first start with categorizing the location services by their More >
