Small communication lines and base stations

How does a small cell base station communicate with a core network?

The small cell base station communicates with the core network over a high-speed backhaul connection. Core network: The core network manages the overall operation of the small cell network, including authentication, authorization, and routing of user traffic.

What is a small-cell base station (SBS) antenna?

To address the growing demand, 5G technology is being implemented at a larger scale. Small-cell Base Station (SBS) antennas are crucial for exploring the full potential of 5G networks by expanding the network in urban areas, densely populated regions, indoor environments, and low-coverage zones.

What's the difference between a macro base station and a small cell?

With a macro base station, there's one pipe going into the network; with small cells, it breaks the pipe into many pipes. The main goal of small cells is to increase the macro cell's edge data capacity, speed and overall network efficiency.

What is a base station in a cellular network?

Base Stations A base station, often housed within a cell site, is the central point in a cellular network where signals are transmitted and received from mobile devices. It consists of electronic equipment, including transceivers, antennas, and signal processors, that manage the communication within a specific geographical area or “cell.”
