WIRELESS SYSTEMS DEFINITION (continued): … becoming common.The ideal PLMN provides mobile and portable users with a level of service comparable to that of subscribers in a fixed network. This can be a special challenge in regions where the terrain is irregular, where base station sites are hard to find and maintain, and in urban environments where there are numerous obstructions such as buildings, and myriad sources of radio-frequency (RF) radiation that can cause noise and interference. Most systems today use digital technology rather than the older analog methods. This transition has resulted in improved communications coverage and reliability, … Wireless Systems definition sponsored by SearchMobileComputing.com, powered by WhatIs.com an online computer dictionary
