3G Microwave Transmission Network Planning

Course Date & Venue
 
20 June - 24 June 2010 (Sun - Thu)
5-day Instructor led training , 0900 - 1700
Dubai, UAE

Course Objectives
After attending the training, participants will be able to
  • Develop an appreciation of how 3G Transmission Network Planning and related technologies can be used to deliver value to customers
  • Develop an understanding on how 3G Network can utilize the Microwave link for planning the Access and Core network
  • Learn 3G Traffic Analysis and 3GPP Delay, Jitter requirements between NodeB and RNC for 3G Access Link
  • Describe the process in all IP 3G Network and transmission planning considerations
  • Plan for 3G Access Links with IP based Microwave radio
  • Learn the methods for Access Core Network Dimensioning using Adaptive Modulation features
  • Learn on how to plan for 3G Synchronization

Course Overview
 
With the emerging carrier Ethernet standards and the migration of mobile telephony technologies towards IP technologies, the microwave radio systems have an increased focus on the effective transport of packet based traffic and major radio vendors have introduced a new type of radio, commonly referred to as IP radio supporting high speed packet transport over microwave links.

Telefocal has developed a 5 Day link planning course to allow existing TDM link planners who are or shall be involved in Access and Core transmissions network planning using IP packet radios for 3G and beyond 3G mobile and fixed networks. This course includes Basics of Transmission Network Planning, Transmission Network Planning Process, Overview of 3G family, 3G Access and Core Network functions as well as OSI layers and their roles in Link Planning. This 5-day program gives a clear concept on IP 3G Network and 3G Network Synchronization Planning. Link Planning with IP radios requires a thorough understanding of the transmissions of packets over the microwave radios, the concept of statistical multiplexing, delay and jitter and adaptive modulation.

Key Benefits
 
3G Link Planning with microwave radios requires a thorough understanding of the transmissions of packets over the microwave radios, the concept of statistical multiplexing, delay and jitter and adaptive modulation. By attending this course the students will gain a sound knowledge of:
  • How microwave links are planned for 3 G Access and Core Networks using microwave TDM and packet radios at different frequencies and under different weather conditions using adaptive modulation ( only with packet radios)
  • What components make up a total system and the significance of Layer 2 switching in 3G Transmissions access and core links
  • How to thoroughly plan a total IP over microwave network to attain desired performance objectives
  • How to dimension packet radio links using adaptive modulation and overbooking ratios
  • How to mitigate noise and interference and the end to end delay and jitter
  • How to solve the synchronization requirements in 3G all IP Networks

Pre-Requisites for Participants
