The LTE mobile radio access network

Abstract

Cellular mobile communication system is a kind of mobile communication for transmission to subscribers of mobile telephone communications and digital data. Cellular network got its name in accordance with the principle of territorial distribution of work areas (cells). In the center of each work area is a base station communicates by radio with the mobile stations, which may be stationary or movable. Due to the property of attenuation of radio waves propagation, it has been able to use the same set of radio channels in different cells. LTE standard was confirmed as the next after UMTS Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standard mobile broadband network international union in January 2008. Standard provides a throughput and a data rate that are necessary for the growing number of subscribers increasingly demanding. In Belarus, the LTE network was put into commercial operation in the city of Minsk in December 2015 by the infrastructure operator beCloud. Minsk became the first Belarusian town, where there was this network. Currently it runs construction of networks for the fourth generation mobile communication in other cities of Belarus, including regional centers and other cities.
