Abbreviation Explanation
Cell Cell ID, this is used to differentiate cells from each other

MCC (Mobile Country Code) The mobile network country-specific code
MNC (Mobile Network Code) Operator-specific mobile network code
LTE Cell Global Identify (CGI ) Base station ID, used to differentiate base stations from each other
LTE Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ ) Quality of received signal
LTE Signal to Noise Ratio (SINR - Signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio) The scale of the SINR measurements are between -20 and +30dB, the bigger the better. Signal strength is though of as "OK" when it is 15dB or over that, the maximum speed is then 50Mbps. You will need roughly 25dB if you wish to reach speeds around 100Mbps. All speed estimations are made using the 20Mhz bandwidth.
LTE Reference Signal Recieved Power (RSRP ) Interprets the quality of the incoming reference signal. -50dBm is the best, -90dBm is good and -110dBm is weak. When the signal is better than -90dBm we can follow the SINR value alone.
LTE Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) Interprets the strength of the incoming radio signal.
UMTS RNC-ID
TAC (Tracking Area Code) Tells the area code consisting of multiple base stations.
LAC (Local Area Code) Tells the area code consisting of multiple base stations.
