4G Deployment Strategies and Operational Implications : Managing Critical Decisions in Deployment of 4G/LTE Networks and Their Effects on Network Operations and Business /
As telecommunications operators and network engineers understand, specific operational requirements drive early network architectural and design decisions for 4G networks. But they also know that because technology, standards, usage practices, and regulatory regimes change on a continuous basis, so...
