Question No. 1

Consider the following statements:
1.LTE (Long Term Evolution) uses an All-IP architecture that integrates voice, video, and data services on a single Internet Protocol network.
2.VoLTE (Voice over LTE) requires the device to switch back to 2G or 3G networks to complete a voice call, which is why call setup time is increased.
3.VoLTE allows for the simultaneous use of high-speed data and voice calls without interruptions.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

A1 and 2 only

B2 and 3 only

C1 and 3 only

D1, 2 and 3

Question No. 2

Consider the following statements regarding 5G networks:
1.Standalone (SA) 5G operates using a dedicated 5G core and equipment, functioning independently of existing 4G infrastructure.
2.Non-Standalone (NSA) 5G is primarily used to enable features like network slicing, which are not possible in Standalone modes.
3.The NSA mode allows for a faster and more cost-effective rollout by leveraging the existing 4G core network.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

A1 and 2 only

B2 and 3 only

C1 and 3 only

D1, 2 and 3

Question No. 3

Consider the following statements regarding VoIP:
1.VoIP converts voice signals into digital packets and transmits them over a circuit-switched traditional telephone network.
2.It allows for easy integration with other digital communication tools such as video conferencing, email, and call forwarding.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A1 only

B2 only

CBoth 1 and 2

DNeither 1 nor 2

Question No. 4

Consider the following statements regarding Wi-Fi Calling:
1.VoWiFi requires users to pay additional international roaming charges because the call is routed through an external Wi-Fi network.
2.It enables seamless switching between LTE and Wi-Fi networks to ensure uninterrupted calls in areas with poor cellular reception.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A1 only

B2 only

CBoth 1 and 2

DNeither 1 nor 2

Question No. 5

Consider the following statements regarding Edge Computing:
1.It involves processing data closer to the source of data generation rather than relying solely on a centralized cloud-based data center.
2.By processing data locally, it significantly increases latency, making it unsuitable for real-time applications like autonomous vehicles.
3.It helps in reducing the volume of data that needs to be transmitted over the network to the central core.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

A1 and 2 only

B2 and 3 only

C1 and 3 only

D1, 2 and 3

Question No. 6

Consider the following statements:
1.A Digital Twin is a virtual representation of a physical object, process, or system that serves as its real-time digital counterpart.
2.This technology is used exclusively for creating video games and has no application in urban planning or industrial manufacturing.
3.Digital twins rely solely on historical data and cannot receive real-time updates from the physical object via sensors.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

AOnly one

BOnly two

CAll three

DNone

Question No. 7

Consider the following statements regarding cellular infrastructure sharing:
1.Passive sharing involves operators sharing physical structures like towers and base stations while maintaining their own radio equipment.
2.Active sharing involves the joint operation and management of electronic infrastructure components by multiple operators.
3.Platform sharing can lead to significant cost reductions and accelerated deployment of new technologies like 5G.
How many of the statements given above are correct?

AOnly one

BOnly two

CAll three

DNone

Question No. 8

Consider the following statements:
1.Network Slicing: A technology that allows a single physical 5G network to be partitioned into multiple virtual networks tailored for specific services.
2.O-RAN (Open Radio Access Network): A proprietary, closed architecture that prevents the interoperability of hardware from different vendors.
3.Shared Spectrum: A model where operators optimize capacity by sharing radio frequency resources to reduce costs.
How many of the statements given above are correct?

AOnly one

BOnly two

CAll three

DNone

Question No. 9

Consider the following statements:
1.Optical fibers transmit data using electrical pulses, which makes them immune to electromagnetic interference.
2.Total Internal Reflection occurs when light traveling in a rarer medium strikes the boundary of a denser medium at an angle less than the critical angle.
3.In optical fibers, light is reflected back into the denser medium (glass/plastic) allowing it to travel long distances with minimal loss.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

AOnly one

BOnly two
