It could get messy, LBA Group’s Chris Horne warns. Horne’s warning came in a discussion at last week’s 4G [...]  Global Positioning System receivers remain wary of the plan by 4G network provider LightSquared to create a wireless broadband network to serve every nook and cranny of the U.S. In testimony June 23 before a House subcommittee, opponents of the LightSquared system said it would endanger the GPS navigation systems that aircraft and ships depend [...] LightSquared apparently has dodged a GPS bullet that almost shot it down before it started up. It will switch to another spectrum that virtually eliminates interference with Global Positioning System receivers. Early tests by the Reston, Va., 4G network provider indicated that one 10-megahertz spectral block of its Long Term Evolution (LTE) open wireless broadband [...] Field testing has been performed to determine the effect of a 4G base station, typical of those proposed by LightSquared, upon first responder GPS devices. Early results of tests in New Mexico show an impact on police and medical services equipment. Bill Range, Program Director of New Mexico 911 services reported the test results (PDF) [...]  The WCAI’s 4G Caucus was a must-attend event for wireless operators, vendors, policymakers and systems integrators staying ahead of the curve as the wireless industry migrates to 4G. Held at the Crystal City, VA Hilton, the technical conference addressed major challenges of the 3G to 4G transition – from backhaul applications and business strategies to [...]  LBA’s CTO Chris Horne will be moderating this upcoming open webinar presented for FREE by WCAI on Thursday March 17, 2011 at 4pm EDT.

Little, Director of Corporate Marketing, Aviat Networks Gary Croke, Sr. Product Marketing Manager, Aviat Networks Chris Horne, CTO, LBA Group [...]  The rollout of 3G networks across the country is old news with the recent announcements by Verizon, AT&T, and others to rapidly deploy 700 MHz 4G LTE this year throughout the USA. These high speed networks are slated to grow with ten’s of thousands of new towers and antennas, and to employ novel digital modulation [...] |
