The course instructor has more than 7 years
of experience in WCDMA radio network planning and optimisation from
major mobile network operators. He has planned/designed and optimized
the initial phase of the commercial Orange UK 3G network. Also,
he has been actively involved in consulting mobile network operators
on wireless technologies regarding HSDPA/HSUPA deployment, WiMAX,
Flash-OFDM, WCDMA-TDD, WiBro and Mobile TV.
He offers on-demand courses on wireless technologies specializing
on the planning/optimization as well as the techno-economic/strategic
aspects of them.

Course Objectives |
- Understand why indoor solutions are needed and how they can
be integrated with the existing outdoor 3G network
- Understand the type of antenna system to use, how many antennas
are required and where to install the antennas for maximum coverage
and capacity and minimum interference
- Control traffic to and from an indoor cell as desired by
using parameters and features
- Learn about femptocells and their role in converging fixed
and mobile networks
|
Course Overview |
|
3G mobile devices are increasingly being
used as the only communications device both outdoors and indoors.
With the advent of mobile wireless broadband like HSDPA/HSUPA, there
is an increased need to provide enhanced 3G coverage inside building.
This course looks at how indoor coverage and capacity can be increased
by deploying special solutions. Increased QoS is acheved through
the appropriate design and installation of indoor 3G cells, i.e.
micro, pico or nano cells. The different types of applications are
described, together with the design of each type to meet the needs
of public and business solutions. |
