Not sure how that will work with small cells. We have to find one of the new ones first

constant tracking of this issue posted over here: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/7395-west-virginia-sprint-sponsor-map-spreadsheet/ Help support keeping the lights on for this website and enjoy more info!!

I would say 39991 is going away. It's range for 20Mhz is 2520.1-2540.1 (assuming the same spectrum over the entire area). 2628.8-2648.8 would be 41078, 2648.6-2678.6 is 41276 The .2 "overlap" is typical with second carriers, (ie CA) -
Sort of like Alcatraz, right? Seriously, did they just move the EARFCN, or have you guys seen both EARFCNs?
-
I define LTE+ more broadly to include B25 10x10 and B25 second carrier, both of which have been spreading through Sprint markets like wildfire. They are done on an as needed and as available basis. They have been done in markets where our calculations did not think probable, yet no anecdotal evidence of an increase in dropped calls has been observed. This augmentation of B25 has especially been favored in places without B26 because of IBEZ. In the end, it is about putting bandwidth where needed. Sprint is now much more surgical in its approach.
-
Since it is based on RSRP, the Sprint results can be rigged by only using B26. By the same token B41 will be measured as much weaker. The release notes in indicate attempts to address CA with certain phones. Using my LG G4 I have yet to see any difference.

We continue to follow the FCC in the Shentel buyout of nTelos and spectrum for Sprint dealings over here (must be a sponsor): http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/7395-west-virginia-sprint-sponsor-map-spreadsheet/&do=findComment&comment=467326

Of course most will focus on the fastest speed.
-
Any word on CA uplink speeds? I assume 2x. While most will focus on the fastest speeds, I like the turbo-charged snail speeds at the edge -- this covers far more geographic area. Ready to do battle:
-
Cincinnati members report that WiMax is no more!!
-
Hopefully the become more responsive and further separate out their LTE to make it more accurate.
-
Latency is Sprint's strong point, which should only improve as Clear sites are converted. I expect Sprint will breakup the long microwave chains into shorter configurations, or at least add more fiber locations. More B25 10x10 and B41 third carrier will help with speed.
-
Don't forget about Dr Saws promise to have third carrier started by the end of 2015 and that third carrier is all software. No site visits required. Third carrier will benefit any triband phone at a congested site with extra backhaul.

We do have Verizon small cells placed as close together as a few hundred feet in Columbus.

I am certain your comments will be highly valued once Next Generation Network gets moving. Just start or contribute to a new thread then. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk -

Curious on details of the 1x or 3G change and the Carbondale IL roaming provider change.
-
The key item for Sprint is execution of its network plans. I believe quicker rollout is partially related to a likely requirement by its financiers to cut costs.
-
For those who are concerned that we are are off on tangents for a financial quarterly report, be aware that a huge amount of time was spent covering network issues in the conference call and during Q & A.
-
High speeds are the draw, but the real benefit of CA is at the edge, where 2x speed matters. Same with 10x10 B25. At the edge customer may also notice in their regular apps. The edge (or service weak areas or holes) is also the zone where many small cells will operate.
-
We may know as soon as February 4.
-
Neilson and root metrics are often mentioned. They previously have used Sensorly.
-
WiMAX was in one question but I don't believe it was addressed. I recommend looking at the transcript once released.
