Telecommunications infrastructure maker Alcatel-Lucent announced this
week new technology that will help wireless carriers expand their
networks to keep up with the explosive growth in mobile data.
The companyannounced this weeka new compact cell phone antenna system called lightRadio, which
incorporates radio technology and base station technology in a single
box. The entire system, which can fit on a lamp post, is a fraction of
the size of today's cellular equipment. Current cellular networks
require massive and power-hungry cell phone towers that house the
antennas with a separate base station at the bottom of those towers that
control the antennas.Cnet
