F A 28620649 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE SCENARIO Application note 5 described how to connect a Phoenix Mobile audiocodec to a 3G network by means of a modem in order to establish communications in mobile scenarios Even if that document is still valid technology has made a great leap forward and now many service providers are offering mobile internet accesses that are not only faster but also more and more reliable and affordable Actually one of the 3G or UMTS technology limitations consists on the reduction of the bandwidth when the number of active users on the same cell grows up what in practice means that it is nearly impossible to broadcast events where a large audience is present as in the case of sports competitions live concerts etc 4G or LTE Long Term Evolution technology appears to reduce this issue by among many other things a complete redesign of the radio interface and at the same time manages to provide larger available data bandwidths that can get up to 300 Mb s downstream and 80 Mb s upstream for a certain type of high end terminals By using readily available modems that are even provided by the ISP up to 100Mb s downstream with 50Mb s upstream can be achieved with good coverage conditions what means more than 100 times higher bitrate than what you really need to transmit two full duplex high quality audio channels This application note explains the way to connect a Phoenix audiocodec Mobile Studi
