The node responsible for managing user data tunnels between the eNode-Bs in the radio network and the Packet Data Network Gateway (PDN-GW).

Domain: Telecommunications; Category: Wireless communication

A sublayer of radio interface Layer 3 existing in the control plane only which provides information transfer service to the non-access stratum.

Domain: Telecommunications; Category: Wireless communication

A protocol that handles segmentation and windowing of packets. Proper RLC parametrisation may reduce the probability of (end-to-end) TCP retransmissions, which are slow and are known to have a ...

Domain: Telecommunications; Category: Wireless communication

A set of 7 consecutive OFDM symbols in the time domain and 12 consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain. A physical resource block contains 84 Resource Elements and represents one slot in the ...

Domain: Telecommunications; Category: Wireless communication

Node that provides the UE with access to a Packet Data Network (PDN) by assigning an IP address from the PDN to the UE. The PDN Gateway (P-GW) hosts the following functions (see 3GPP TS 23.401): - ...

Domain: Telecommunications; Category: Wireless communication

A protocol whose main services and functions include transfer of user data, ciphering and deciphering, header compression and decompression, in-sequence delivery of upper layer PDUs, duplicate ...

Domain: Telecommunications; Category: Wireless communication

A variant of OFDM with the additional ability to dynamically assign a subset of subcarriers to individual users. The multiuser capability is achieved by assigning each user a subset of OFDM ...
