Course Overview
4G is today’s most preferred wireless network.
In this training you will get in-depth knowledge of the global architecture of the network, how the radio interface works, and how security is guaranteed. You will also understand the 4G limits and the needs for 5G. It will cover the next major phase of wireless and mobile communication technologies and standards beyond the current 4G/IMT-Advanced Standards.
The course also covers 4G LTE / 5G technologies in full depth and breadth and include topics like radio channels, RF, antennas, propagation, architecture, components, cellular/backhaul and applications that will revolutionize the form and operation of mobile network operators. Participants will find out how 5G wireless networks perform as compared to 4G, in terms of speed, agility and intelligence.
New trends and services such as D2D, IoT, Smart Cities, Autonomous Driving, low-latency remote control, are just some of the use cases that operators will be able to leverage to boost their business towards the new era of all–software defined business.
Key Benefits
The first goal of this course is to present details and up-to-date information on the 4G LTE / LTE-Advanced technology and the corresponding 3GPP standards. The key features of the 4G wireless technology will be covered, specifically Release 10 to 12. Multiple antenna technology including Coordinated Multi-Point, Carrier Aggregation (CA), and Heterogeneous Networks (HetNet) and Self-Organizing Networks (SON) will be discussed.
Completing the course, participants will be proficient in 4G LTE / LTE Advance and the knowledge of network migration to 5G. They will be able to plan and design a best-in-class Software-Defined 5G wireless network that offer leading-edge applications that would satisfy both current and future market requirements.
