LTE and LTE Advanced

LTE 4G network speed

This course provides an in-depth understanding of Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and LTE-Advanced, the advanced wireless communication technologies that have revolutionized the mobile industry. Participants will explore the evolution from 3GPP UMTS and HSPA to HSPA+ and LTE/LTE-Advanced, and delve into the various protocol functions, spectrum allocation, antenna technologies, and deployment strategies associated with these technologies.

Additionally, the course covers topics such as carrier aggregation, heterogeneous networks, self-organizing networks, and all-IP network architecture. The course also explores the application of LTE/LTE-Advanced in voice over IP (VoIP) services.

  • Telecom engineers involved in the planning, design, deployment, and optimization of mobile communication networks
  • Network architects
  • Mobile network operators and service providers involved in the implementation and operation of LTE/LTE-A networks
  • System integrators and equipment vendors involved in the development and deployment of LTE/LTE-A solutions
