Aimed At
Those familiar with the basic architecture and operation of wireless networks as well as the GSM and CDMA technologies who wish to learn about the advanced wireless technologies including 3G, 4G, and beyond.Prerequisites
You should have taken RF Systems: Principles and Deployment - with Telecom Overview (B-PROPANT, 4 days) and have good understanding of GSM and CDMA, or possess equivalent knowledge/experience.Course in a Nutshell
This course will build on your existing knowledge of wireless network structure and operation, GSM, and CDMA to discuss the advanced wireless technologies, including 3G, 4G, and beyond.
Covered are WCDMA (UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA, 3G LTE), cdma2000 (1xRTT, 1xEVDO, UMB), WiMAX, OFDM, MIMO, and more. This survey of advanced technologies will help you better understand the complex landscape of current and emerging wireless technologies. It will also equip you with the basic knowledge you need to undertake a deeper study of the technologies that are of particular interest to you.
