Multi-access edge computing ( MEC ), formerly mobile edge computing, is an ETSI -defined [1] network architecture concept that enables cloud computing capabilities and an IT service environment at the edge of the cellular network [2] [3] and, more in general at the edge of any network. The basic idea behind MEC is that by running applications ...
Wi-Fi calling, also called VoWiFi, [ 1] refers to mobile phone voice calls and data that are made over IP networks using Wi-Fi, instead of the cell towers provided by cellular networks. [ 2] Using this feature, compatible handsets are able to route regular cellular calls through a wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) network with broadband Internet, while ...
GSM uses TDMA and FDMA for user and cell separation. UMTS, IS-95 and CDMA-2000 use CDMA. WiMAX and LTE use OFDM . Time-division multiple access (TDMA) provides multiuser access by chopping up the channel into sequential time slices. Each user of the channel takes turns to transmit and receive signals.
Network neutrality, often referred to as net neutrality, is the principle that Internet service providers (ISPs) must treat all Internet communications equally, offering users and online content providers consistent transfer rates regardless of content, website, platform, application, type of equipment, source address, destination address, or method of communication (i.e., without price ...
v. t. e. Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution ( EDGE ), also known as 2.75G, Enhanced GPRS ( EGPRS ), IMT Single Carrier ( IMT-SC ), and Enhanced Data rates for Global Evolution, is a 2G digital mobile phone technology for data transmission. It is a subset of General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) on the GSM network and improves upon it offering ...
The Internet (or internet) [ a] is the global system of interconnected computer networks that uses the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) [ b] to communicate between networks and devices. It is a network of networks that consists of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by a broad array of ...
Wiretapping. Wiretapping, also known as wire tapping or telephone tapping, is the monitoring of telephone and Internet -based conversations by a third party, often by covert means. The wire tap received its name because, historically, the monitoring connection was an actual electrical tap on an analog telephone or telegraph line.
Wireless network technologies. General Packet Radio Service ( GPRS ), also called 2.5G, [ a] is a mobile data standard on the 2G cellular communication network's global system for mobile communications (GSM). [ 1] Networks and mobile devices with GPRS started to roll out around the year 2001. [ 2]
