Small-medium enterprise: indoor coverage with virtualized small cells

James Piedra — Fri, 24 Feb 2017 17:45:51 +0000

Indoor coverage for buildings has always been spotty ate best, even with the ideal obstacle-penetrating frequency bands some 4g-LTE carriers operate at. Concrete, glass and steel are all materials that impede wireless communications, as a result the DAS (Distributed Antenna System) market has continued to flourish for in-building coverage. In-building wireless coverage is widely coveted, ...
