THE SMALL CELL ECOSYSTEM is formed of the elements that make up the access points, gateways and backhaul. Surrounding these basic building blocks are small cell focussed systems and operations such as design, planning, test, verification, systems management and optimisation and operation.
SMALL CELL ECOSYSTEM
The access points themselves come in different sizes and factors, and are built on a stack of systems on chip, platforms, and application software.
