No, I didn't, because the context was a list of two things, I took the first one to start with.
Technology might change, but Shannon limit on capacity doesn't, nor does mother nature.
The Q-Gillhousen problem is that Shannon assumed things like instant, telepathic power control, as well as perfect heavenly synchronization, perfect cancellation of whatever needs to be cancelled. (Even Wozencraft had one simple example to show the student the limits of that)
Not to forgot the old neanderthalian problem of catching and tracking a moving target, which Shannon was smart enough to understand while juggling balls.
So, what does 1MHz and 5MHz have to do with office enviroment, multipath fading and cutting corners?? (the Gillhousen statitistics on the distribution of multipath delays and amplitudes is a popular thing, always was)
AMPS grids of base stations, dropping calls, TDMA which must be secretely AMPS, no clue to the user, and CDMA which must secretely be TDMA, no clue to the user??
40% users on AMPS??
Even in Russia one knows if to blame NMT or GSM when the call is dropped.
But most operators actually see what goes on, assuming they have a monitoring system which hasn't been tampered with. (some have)
Ilmarinen
Btw, what is the constantly changing technology, the Japanese making the processing equipment for better, smaller sillycone processes, sorting out the light and the molecules, achieving the quality needed for business??
Or is it the GSM-OFDMA thing?? |
