Introduction to 3G: Evolving Mobile Wireless Networks with RRH and DPD

Access to the webinar requires registration on PMC-Sierra's website and approval to view this webinar.

What to Expect

Driven by intense price pressures, wireless carriers are leveraging distributed base station architecture deployments to provide a cost-effective solution for both coverage and capacity. Part of a series on wireless networks, this webinar discusses two of the innovations that enable 3G wireless distributed architectures: Power Amplifier (PA) Digital Predistortion (DPD) technology and Remote Radio Head (RRH) networking elements.

DPD enables the design of smaller, lower power and less expensive PAs, compensating for nonlinearity and retaining high efficiency. Moreover, network operators can leverage RRHs for CAPEX & OPEX savings over traditional “One Base Station per Radio Mast” electrically fed platform deployments

This webinar will:

• Consider trends in mobile wireless system evolution
• Present an overview of today's 3G mobile radio networks
• Discuss the challenges and advantages of distributed base station architecture implementations
• Examine two of the innovations that enable distributed architectures: RRH and DPD
• Conclude with a live Q&A session
