Narrow band - IoT Release-14 e-NodeB Protocol Stack (L2-L3) Software IP

Overview

This NB-IoT eNodeB Protocol Stack IP supports significant and mandatory features specified by 3GPP Release 14 versions of NB-IoT specifications. The e-NodeB IP supports Standalone, In-band, utilizing resource blocks within a normal LTE carrier and Guard band NB-IoT network deployment in dedicated spectrum and offers lower cost of ownership and accelerates time to market
The e-NodeB has been tested and validated against multiple UEs from different chip vendors and Test and Measurement equipment. The NB-IoT e-nodeB has been integrated and tested against EPC and core network from multiple vendors. The solution can be quickly deployed with customer’s own Radio front end and Antenna.
