If you have been using the Voice over LTE (VoLTE) or Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) services on your mobile phone, then you already have been served by the IMS platform that mobile operators use along with their mobile core network. IMS or IP Multimedia Subsystem is used in both 4G LTE and 5G NR networks. […]

EDGE is a network enhancement in second-generation (2G) GSM networks and is represented by an E symbol on cell phones. It is a successor of the GPRS enhancement that introduced the packet-switched mobile internet in GSM networks. EDGE or Enhanced Data for Global Evolution is a 2G technology introduced in GSM networks to increase the

VoLTE and VoIP are two interrelated technologies that enable voice services over data networks. VoLTE is a vital part of mobile cellular networks, while VoIP is a broader technology that is used in fixed and mobile networks. Voice over LTE (VoLTE) in 4G mobile networks is a type of Voice over IP (VoIP) technology that

4G and GPRS represent two different generations of mobile networks, and our mobile phones can access both to connect to the cellular network. However, while both 4G LTE and GPRS enable packet-switched mobile data, 4G is one of the latest cellular technologies, and GPRS is one of the earliest technologies. 4G is the fourth generation

GPS is an entirely different technology compared to GPRS and GSM. GPS is used for satellite navigation, whereas GPRS and GSM are mobile communications technologies. However, since these acronyms sound a bit similar, it is possible to get confused between them. GPRS or General Packet Radio Service is a cellular technology enhancement in 2G GSM

High-Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD) and General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) are network enhancements made to the second-generation (2G) GSM networks. The HSCSD technology is now obsolete; however, GPRS is still around and can be seen on mobile phones as the “G” symbol when 2G GSM networks serve a phone. HSCSD (High-Speed Circuit-Switched Data) was

Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) and Single-User MIMO (SU-MIMO) are two antenna technologies used in modern wireless networks, including 4G and 5G mobile networks. While both MU-MIMO and SU-MIMO are part of the overall Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technology, there are key differences between the two that we will cover in this post. MU-MIMO uses radio
