Cloud base stations and fixed mobile convergence for the next mobile network

摘要

In order to provide the best customer service, mobile operators continuously evolve their network with the next big challenge being a massive increase in transmission speed. In this paper, we combine the concepts of cloud base stations and fixed mobile convergence to deal with this challenge. We examine how the remote radio heads of such a distributed base station architecture can be interconnected over existing in-service fiber-to-the-home networks and present two architectures for this.
