5-day instructor-led, 0900-1700 |
Course Objectives |
The goal of this
course is to present
details and
up-to-date
information on both
Fixed and Mobile
WiMAX technology and
the corresponding
family of IEEE
802.16 standards.
The focus
is on the WiMAX
technology and its
applications. The
participants will
learn the features
of the technology
that
are relevant for
system performance
and applications. |

Course Overview |
|
This a 5-day course
focusing on the
WiMAX technology and
applications. We
will address the
following
topics:
- Differences
between Fixed and
Mobile WiMAX
technology
will be examined.
The related layer 1
and 2 protocol
functions are dealt
with in great
detail.
- WiMAX
deployment and
rollout strategies
will be examined.
- All-IP
network architecture
will be described.
- VoIP, IPTV,
cellular
alternative, and
mobile TV as
WiMAX applications
will be discussed.

Key Benefits |
|
The participants
will gain a detailed
end-to-end knowledge
of the WiMAX
technology, and the
corresponding
applications.
Furthermore, they
will be able to
address real-world
problems of the
WiMAX deployment.
|

Pre-Requisites for Participants |
A strong knowledge
of wireless
communication
systems is
required.
Preferential but not
necessary experience
with 2G
or 3G radio planning
and deployment. |

who want to learn
and understand the
benefits and
potential issues
with Fixed and
Mobile WiMAX.
Development,
application and
deployment engineers
that
require a good
knowledge of the
WiMAX technology and
its
applications. |
