I'm assuming there's no EVDO from this site? 1x only, thus the one panel?
-
I added the chunk on 581/15 going to the Capital City mall Saturday night. Also, had 4G on Front St/Market St. bridge in Harrisburg.
-
Right now this is all speculation. We know there are talks but this leaking probably hurts the chances it will occur.
-
I think it's a hell of alot more than that actually. You would wind up having islands of super fast service while being mostly served by 800/1900.

You're going to see sites come online as they're tested. Most likely they'll then be blocked until Sprint "pre-launches" areas at a time.

Nice to see Indiana LTE. -
Estimated time of 800 mhz rollout?
Boosted20V replied to nova46's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
So let's use a real world example here... Let's say that the network dictates a 1900mhz carrier and you travel to an area where that signal begins to fade and realisticaly, you need to be moved to the lower frequency carrier. How does the network "know" this move needs to be made? I guess really this is the exact same question asked above. I suppose this may have something to do with why they default users to the 800mhz carrier? Also, Verizon currently has 1x on 850mhz Cellular and 1900mhz PCS, correct? So they must be using this functionality as well? -
Sprint engineering study
Boosted20V replied to Proxcee's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
I would say Chicago is different simply based on the issue they had with legacy hardware and NV hardware. I wouldn't think they would launch a market when calls are dropping like crazy. -
Estimated time of 800 mhz rollout?
Boosted20V replied to nova46's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Care to explain any further? I thought on a CDMA network the handset always was in control of which sector it was connected to? -
Estimated time of 800 mhz rollout?
Boosted20V replied to nova46's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
There is no reason for it not to.... that is controlled by the handset. EDIT - This should be no different than the handset picking a signal from one tower over another. It's just choosing a different carrier based on EC/IO. -
Estimated time of 800 mhz rollout?
Boosted20V replied to nova46's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Robert, I have a question about the deployed 800 mhz 1xA. If I'm deep in a building and only picking up this signal and no EVDO or LTE (which even with 800mhz LTE might very well be the case), what kind of speeds will 1xA provide? I remember reading that it can either be deployed for efficiency or speed, so I'm assuming ~150k/s? Thanks! -
Try to get pictures when you can of the new panels!

VoLTE vs 1x Advanced
Boosted20V replied to Boosted20V's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Realistically though, I don't see how carriers can move 100% to LTE given its coverage limitations. From your technical understanding of LTE, do you think there will be revisions to the LTE standards which will improve this? EDIT - Also, wasn't there talk of the FCC freeing up some ~600mhz spectrum? That would certainly help. -
VoLTE vs 1x Advanced
Boosted20V replied to Boosted20V's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Also, this brings up a very good point regarding low frequency spectrum. Moving forward towards LTE, low frequency spectrum becomes all that much more valuable based on the lack of strength of LTE signals to maintain decent in-building coverage. This puts carriers such as T-Mobile at a very distinct disadvantage. -
VoLTE vs 1x Advanced
Boosted20V replied to Boosted20V's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Thanks, I find this very interesting. My biggest question regarding it all would be.. if you run a hybrid of both 1xA and VoLTE, would traffic flow seamlessly between both or would you have dropped calls? For example, I'm on the street, great LTE signal is being received and I'm using VoLTE. If I walk into a building and then need to drop back to 800mhz 1xA, would the handoff be seamless? -
VoLTE vs 1x Advanced
Boosted20V replied to Boosted20V's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
So then Verizon would have the same issues with spacing on their 700mhz, no? They don't have great density yet, correct? -
Yes I am.
-
Freakin Sprint, makes sense. I should have known their entire footprint wouldn't be covered!
-
So it's my understanding that Sprint is sticking with 1x Advanced for calling due to the fact that it's more efficient than LTE. This will have some interesting implications with pretty much every other carrier moving to VoLTE. Are any other carriers using 1x Advanced? How will this impact their roaming agreement with Verizon? I suppose Verizon will have their 1x running for quite a while yet even once they start using VoLTE. EDIT - Also, we can assume at some point Sprint will start using VoLTE, no?
-
No, there was another glimpse of LTE there. Both places.

I've never had an issue in South/Center City Philly with speeds. As I mentioned in another thread, last week I noticed that everywhere I traveled in the Lehigh Valley was connected via eHRPD. Only reason I mention this is because it's the same market as Philly. I imagine the same should be true for there.

Network Vision/LTE - Puerto Rico/Virgin Islands Market
Boosted20V replied to Gab2012's topic in Markets
Someone always has to be a downer. Theoretical peak is 3.1mb/s... WTF SPRINT!?!?!?!
