The fifth generation (5G) system architecture is defined as service-based and the core network functions are described as sets of services accessible through application programming interfaces (API). One of the components of 5G is Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) which provides the open access to radio network functions through API. Using the mobile edge API third party analytics applications ...

in this paper, a new propagation model based on utd for multiple diffraction paths in cellular mobile radio communications in urban environments is proposed. moreover, the most rigorous novel utd-based expressions for multiple diffractions by buildings and excess path losses are d - rived and analyzed. for this purpose, building rows are supposed to have rectangular cross-sections with the same...

The rapidly increasing traffic demand from mobile users forces network operators and service providers to extend and optimize existing networks as well as to plan entirely new mobile radio networks. Current planning methods rely on static coverage prediction. The optimization is partly based on measurements and gathered experiences in connection with empirical methods. However, these methods do...

This paper discusses the need for joint link level and system level simulations for thirdgeneration mobile radio systems and points out a way of implementing them in SDL. The simulation of third-generation mobile radio interfaces is a particular challenge to computational power. Complex systems are needed to support the demands of ATM services and high data of rates up to 2 Mbit/s in the UMTS b...

The Land Mobile Radio System provides a radio voice broadcast system in public and private domains. Public is used by government departments like police, fire, ambulance to provide security safety services the common man. In these services, speech quality prime factor for evaluating performance of networks. There are different standards laid assessment. ITU-T recommendations G.107, named as E m...

There is disparity in access to Information and Communication Technologies between male and female especially in developing countries. This study did a gender analysis of access and use of ICTs in Ekiti state, Nigeria. Multistage sampling procedure was used to select 178 respondents. Data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics and t-test at α0.05. Radio (198.7), mobile phones (186...

During the last decade several standards for Mobile telecommunications have been developed. The best known is without any doubt the Global Standard for Mobile Communications (GSM) which is operational in many countries, both within and outside Europe. It is now the most successful standard for mobile communications. Also the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) was successfully i...

This paper describes mobility management for the third-generation mobile networks. We focus on the evolution from General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) to Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS). In this evolution, the radio access network UTRAN has been introduced, and radio-related management is moved from the core network to UTRAN. We elaborate on how this architecture change affects ...
