Chapter 5. Connectivity and Transport
The objective of this chapter is to provide options and guidance on the use of IP connectivity in both the Radio Access Network (RAN) and the core network (CN). First, a review is conducted on the various transport modes and their relevance in the architecture. Requirements are examined to address the feasibility of making the transition to IP connectivity for both environments. We first focus on the core network transmission requirements and follow with a discussion on the Radio Access Network transmission requirements.
Transmission Systems
We segregate the transport modes into synchronous and asynchronous methods with wireless and wireline connection types. Each transport mode has unique properties that ...
