    Study Notes

    LTE Radio Management

    • The LTE radio is put to 'sleep' to conserve power and reduce battery consumption.
    • The radio enters deep sleep mode after a certain duration of inactivity, typically 10-20 seconds.

    Home Subscriber Server (HSS)

    • The HSS is a central database that stores subscriber information and authenticates users in a global cellular network.

    5G Networks

    • The major goal of 5G networks is to provide high-speed, low-latency, and ubiquitous connectivity.
    • MIMO stands for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output, which is a key technology used in 5G networks to increase data transmission rates.
    • 5G NR (New Radio) uses two frequency bands: FR1 (410 MHz - 7.125 GHz) and FR2 (24.25 GHz - 52.6 GHz).

    GTP (GPRS Tunneling Protocol)

    • Tunneling via GTP is used to tunnel user data and signaling between different network elements in a mobile network.

    Mutual Authentication

    • Mutual authentication is used to ensure the authenticity of both the user and the network, preventing unauthorized access.

    Cell Diameters

    • Pico-cells in 5G networks have diameters of around 10-100 meters.

    Mobility Management Entity (MME)

    • The MME is responsible for managing mobility, authentication, and bearer management in LTE networks.

    4G Cellular Networks

    • The transmission rate for 4G cellular networks is typically up to 100 Mbps.
    • The 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) is responsible for the technical standards of 4G/5G cellular networks.
    • 4G network is widely available in Korea, with over 90% coverage.

    Mobile Devices

    • A common device that is part of the mobile device category is a smartphone.

    Business Model

    • The business model typically associated with 4G/5G cellular networks is a subscription-based model.

    User Identity

    • A distinguishing feature of user identity in 4G/5G cellular networks is the use of IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) numbers.

    Standards

    • The standard responsible for 4G is LTE (Long-Term Evolution).

    Network Elements

    • The HSS has a strong notion of 'home and roaming' as it stores subscriber information and manages roaming agreements.

    4G/5G Cellular Networks

    • A distinguishing feature of 4G/5G cellular networks compared to wired Internet is their mobility and ubiquity.

    Home Subscriber Service (HSS)

    • The HSS is responsible for storing subscriber information, authenticating users, and managing roaming agreements in 4G LTE architecture.

    Serving Gateway (SGW) and PDN Gateway (P-GW)

    • The SGW and P-GW are responsible for routing user data and signaling between the LTE network and the Internet.

    Mobility Management Entity (MME)

    • The MME is responsible for managing mobility, authentication, and bearer management in 4G LTE architecture.

    LTE Data Plane Protocol Stack

    • The LTE data plane protocol stack includes the GTP-U (GPRS Tunneling Protocol - User plane) protocol.
    • The GTP-U protocol is used to tunnel user data between the LTE network and the Internet.

    IP Tunnels

    • IP tunnels are used to tunnel user data and signaling between different network elements in the LTE data plane.

    Base Station

    • The base station plays a crucial role in 4G LTE architecture, responsible for transmitting and receiving data to and from mobile devices.
    • The base station is distinguished from a WiFi Access Point (AP) by its ability to provide mobility and handover management.
    • The protocols used at the link and physical layers in LTE data plane are the MAC (Media Access Control) and PHY (Physical) layers respectively.
