Mastering LTE
Instructor Led | Duration: 2 Days
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is a radio technology based on OFDM and MIMO technologies. LTE provides much higher data rates (over 100 Mbps) to users while reducing cost-per-bit for service providers. This is very exciting to wireless operators who are eager to deploy multimedia rich Internet content over a wireless medium with seamless access anywhere, anytime.
This course describes the simplified architecture of LTE and moves on to OFDM and MIMO. The course also covers the downlink and uplink frame structure, OFDM operations at the physical layer, and resource management and scheduling considerations at the MAC layer. It steps through the system acquisition, call setup, traffic operations and handover. The deployment and interworking issues with UMTS/GSM and 1x/1xEV-DO networks are also explored. In summary, this course provides a comprehensive overview of LTE technology.
WiMAX RF Design and Optimization Workshop
Instructor Led | Duration: 4 Days
This unique mentoring workshop delves deep into the behavior of WiMAX in commercial deployment, providing insight into the design process and field performance issues. It begins with an overview of WiMAX RF design. OFDM and multiple antennas bring opportunities and challenges to WiMAX RF design. A discussion on WiMAX specific link budget follows. The high data rate in WiMAX networks makes capacity design significantly different. A detail discussion on WiMAX RF design, site selection, and system acceptance wrap up the design part.
The second part of this workshop focuses on the configuration of launched network, KPIs, and the impact of configuration parameters. A brief overview of data collection and post processing tools is followed by the key issues of RF coverage, access and drop connections, excessive and failed handovers, and downlink and uplink throughput. This workshop provides practical examples and uses actual field data for exercises. It is designed to familiarize the students with the tools and techniques to design and optimize their own markets. IP/Ethernet Backhaul Planning
Duration: 3 Days
The 4th generation (4G) of wireless technologies promises a much higher air interface data rate (over 100 Mbps) to users while reducing the cost per bit for wireless service providers. The current T1/E1 backhaul will not be able to support the high data rate with reasonable costs. The backhaul is already becoming the bottleneck in the existing 3G networks and will continue to be a challenge for emerging 4G networks. These networks require IP based broadband backhaul solutions.
This course provides the background and solutions for IP backhaul planning for 3G/4G radio networks, starting with a review of the trends in 3G/4G wireless data services and related backhaul challenges. An overview of IP/MPLS is given since it is seen as an emerging technology for backhaul operation. Finally, deployment considerations and a backhaul migration path are discussed along with an exercise to calculate the backhaul requirements.
