Listen "A High Tech Forum Conversation on Wi-Fi vs. LTE-U with Mike Thelander"
Episode Synopsis
In the latest High Tech Forum podcast, Richard Bennett talks with Mike Thelander, CEO and founder of Signals Research Group (SRG), about Thelander’s research and recent developments in wireless technology.
Thelander describes a study his firm conducted on the impact of LTE Unlicensed’s (LTE-U) on real Wi-Fi systems that produced some surprising results. While critics of LTE-U have warned that it hogs the airwaves and impairs Wi-Fi systems by grabbing bandwidth too aggressively, SRG found LTE-U has less impact on Wi-Fi per unit of data than Wi-Fi has with itself. This is a matter of LTE-U’s more efficient use of spectrum and the fact that some Wi-Fi Alliance-certified systems treat every piece of information as if it were super-critical.
