Metrics Metrics are quantitative measures used to observe or compare the behavior or performance of a system or service. They provide numeric data for monitoring and analysis. Operations Metro Network The transport infrastructure layer connecting access sites, aggregation points, and data centers within a single metropolitan area or region, built on optical transport and carrier service technologies, sitting between local… Concept/Framework Microwave Backhaul A mobile backhaul implementation using a point-to-point microwave radio link between a base station and the core network or an aggregation point, requiring unobstructed line-of-sight between the two endpoints, providing… Concept/Framework Middle Mile Middle Mile is the transport segment between local access networks and core or aggregation infrastructure that carries traffic beyond the access edge. Concept/Framework Midhaul Transport Midhaul Transport is the transport segment that connects radio or access network elements to aggregation or core parts of the network. Protocol Millimeter Wave The radio frequency range roughly spanning 24-100 GHz, offering substantially more available channel bandwidth than conventional cellular spectrum, at the cost of short range, poor obstruction penetration, and high susceptibility… Concept/Framework Mobile Backhaul The transport network segment connecting a cellular base station to the core network, carrying aggregated subscriber traffic between the radio access point and the rest of the mobile network, implemented… Concept/Framework Mobile Edge Computing The original name for the architectural concept of hosting application compute close to the radio access network, later renamed to Multi-Access Edge Computing to correct the original name's implication of… Concept/Framework Mobility Service Mobility Service is a communication service designed to continue functioning as a user, device, or asset moves across coverage areas. It relies on continuity and handover support. Service Model Modulation Scheme Modulation Scheme is the method used to encode information onto a carrier by varying its amplitude, frequency, phase, or related properties. It defines how the signal carries data. Protocol
