  2. Cellular network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_network

    t. e. A cellular network or mobile network is a telecommunications network where the link to and from end nodes is wireless and the network is distributed over land areas called cells, each served by at least one fixed-location transceiver (such as a base station). These base stations provide the cell with the network coverage which can be used ...

  3. Cell site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_site

    Cellular lattice tower A cell tower in the bush in Africa. A cell site, cell phone tower, cell base tower, or cellular base station is a cellular-enabled mobile device site where antennas and electronic communications equipment are placed (typically on a radio mast, tower, or other raised structure) to create a cell, or adjacent cells, in a cellular network.

  4. Wireless mesh network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_mesh_network

    Diagram showing a possible configuration for a wired–wireless mesh network, connected upstream via a VSAT link (click to enlarge) A wireless mesh network (WMN) is a communications network made up of radio nodes organized in a mesh topology. It can also be a form of wireless ad hoc network. [1] A mesh refers to rich interconnection among ...

    Wireless network. Wireless icon. A wireless network is a computer network that uses wireless data connections between network nodes. [1] Wireless networking allows homes, telecommunications networks and business installations to avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment ...

  6. Backhaul (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backhaul_(telecommunications)

    A backhaul of a mobile network, also referred to as a mobile-backhaul connects a cell site towards the core network. The two main methods of mobile backhaul implementations are fiber-based backhaul and wireless point-to-point backhaul. [2] Other methods, such as copper-based wireline, satellite communications and point-to-multipoint wireless ...

  7. Network switching subsystem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_switching_subsystem

    Network switching subsystem. Network switching subsystem (NSS) (or GSM core network) is the component of a GSM system that carries out call out and mobility management functions for mobile phones roaming on the network of base stations. It is owned and deployed by mobile phone operators and allows mobile devices to communicate with each other ...

  8. 5G - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5G

    Wireless network technologies. In telecommunications, 5G is the fifth-generation technology standard for cellular networks, which cellular phone companies began deploying worldwide in 2019, and is the successor to 4G technology that provides connectivity to most current mobile phones. Like its predecessors, 5G networks are cellular networks, in ...

  9. Co-channel interference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Co-channel_interference

    The co-channel interference arises in the cellular mobile networks owing to this phenomenon of frequency reuse. Thus, besides the intended signal from within the cell, signals at the same frequencies (co-channel signals) arrive at the receiver from the undesired transmitters located (far away) in some other cells and lead to deterioration in ...
