In the United States, there are two primary types of telecommunications standards for cellular networks: GSM and CDMA. The terms can get a little confusing since they often not only represent the standard but also the transmission method of digital data.In general, GSM and CDMA standards by their authentication practices. GSM is used nearly worldwide to authenticate callers based on removable SIM card which hosts customer data. CDMA standards,… Read more

In electronics, a gain is the increase of power or amplitude of a signal from an input to an output port. This is usually done by adding energy from a power supply to the signal. Gain is usually measured in logarithmic decibel units or dBs, making “dB gain” an expression of amplification.A gain value represents the relative level of signal enhancement a booster and/or antenna is capable of providing. A signal strength booster with… Read more

What is linearity, VSWR, M2M, where do FCC regulations stand, what is attenuation? Get all this and more in this post.What is Linearity?Linearity is the behavior of a circuit, particularly a signal booster, in which the output signal strength varies in direct proportion to the input signal strength. A linear designed signal booster amplifier moves signals in a highly direct way. Nonlinear signal boosters can create problems for the cellular tower… Read more
