TY - JOUR TT - Data rate measures for 4G networks in Albania AU - Imamı, Julian PY - 2017 DA - February JF - European Journal of Sustainable Development Research JO - EJSDR PB - CNR GROUP PUBLISHING WT - DergiPark SN - 2458-8091 SP - 135 EP - 139 VL - 2 IS - 1 KW - 4G LTE KW - Data Throughput N2 - Companies of mobiletelephony operate in a highly competitive market. Subscribers, with thepossibilities given to them to change the operators, can easily change networkbased on the services offered to them. Due to this, all mobile operators whichaim to grow and establish a better position in the market they operate, areinvolved permanently in offering better services for their current andpretended subscribers. The quality, thespeed and all related values to data offered are fields which the operators inAlbania aim to improve. From 4 Mobile Operators in Albania, 3 of them offer 4GLTE data service. This paper focus onmeasuring how real the data values declared by them are and how good is thequality of 4G LTE service offered. Through this paper we will discuss overdifferent measures made in Tirana city related to rate fluctuation of uplinkand downlink throughput of data service. The measures are located in 6different points in Tirana city, which are chosen based on the traffic rate.Measures (made at the same day and time for all the operators in order to haveequality) are realized through a Huawei LTE modem for FTP DL/UL.
