CCA/RRPP live date?
WiWavelength replied to johnabis's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Are changes in roaming not applied per account until the start of new billing cycles? Should they be? Could that be the explanation? AJ -
…or even with DAS. Plenty of early DAS had only one or a few sectors. Coverage, not capacity was the goal. More recent DAS has utilized typically tens of sectors, so capacity is better. But it still is often no match for major sporting event crowds. That is why enterprise grade Wi-Fi is such an important mandate among pro sports franchises. Your average MLB park or NFL stadium will have hundreds of dual band access points, thus the equivalent of hundreds, if not thousands of cellular sectors. AJ

Sprint International Value Roaming Plan Experience!
WiWavelength replied to jamesinclair's topic in General Topics
Yes, it is a little known fact that Robert is actually a pygmy person. I actually have a joke about a group of pygmy warriors and a sorority track team, but it is too crude to tell in public. AJ -
55.5 MHz. That is the attributable BRS spectrum. AJ

Two Rx antennas, one Tx antenna, that is it. No uplink MIMO. AJ

What is your interest in this? And is this even a Sprint variant Samsung Galaxy S6? If so, three of those seven bands are not relevant to the US. The others are the CCA/RRPP bands, but enabling them is not going to do anything. Sprint has not activated CCA/RRPP roaming, which is controlled network side. AJ

I suppose that other antennas -- via absorption or induction -- could be reducing ERP/EIRP in at least some planes/vectors. That is an interesting theory. But any second cellular antenna is Rx only, not Tx. And how would you disable it? Physically remove it? Would you do the same for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth? If you are not happy with the RF performance, my suggestion would be to move on to another handset, rather than to make possibly disastrous engineering changes. AJ

We generally do not make moderation decisions public, but maximus aka lou99 is on a three day suspension for his argumentative reaction (now hidden) to the "softb" correction. He previously was asked to stop using the term "softy," so he just shifted to "softb." I make this announcement because I know that many of you will breathe a sigh of relief at maximus' temporary absence. AJ

And because Lloyd Braun is the head of Transit Wireless. Frank and Estelle have been screaming for service for years. Serenity now! AJ

Am I the only one here that has an Apple Watch?

I agree, but the shoe can be on the other foot... Any sensible pruning for your quotes? Any posts from an actual computer, not Tapatalk? Any reason not to remove your posts for trolling and/or laziness? AJ

Dual Band MIMO deployment
WiWavelength replied to red_dog007's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
The answer is yes. And we have plenty of 8T8R discussion in the sponsor, Premier, and Honored Premier sections. AJ -
No current Sprint devices support FDD carrier aggregation, only band 41 TDD 2x carrier aggregation. And FDD-TDD carrier aggregation will be a long time coming -- certainly not this year. AJ

The truth is somewhere in the middle. Modern wireless data schedulers do not give every user equal priority. Rather, they try to maximize throughput, thereby giving greater priority to those with good signal, lesser priority to those with bad signal. If we were to examine "excessive users" up through "data abusers," I would bet that a great many of them are parked in crappy apartments near their serving sectors. That gives them good signal, hence a leg up on the other users in their sectors. If they had bad signal, they probably would not be "excessive users" or "data abusers" in the first place. They would have pursued other options. AJ
