  • Abstract
    The wireline backhaul of cellular networks plays a critical role in connecting cells to the rest of the telecom world and to each other. As the radio and air interfaces have evolved, so too has the backhaul. The architectures and transport technologies used for wireless backhaul in the US will be described.
