Presentation
5G represents a major advance in the evolution of mobile networks, delivering ultra-high speeds, extremely low latency and massive connection capacity, paving the way for innovative applications and services. It is designed to meet growing connectivity, mobility and performance requirements that are essential to future generations of communications and the IoT. Capitalising on these capabilities requires rigorous design and planning to ensure network performance, coverage and reliability.
This course explores design and planning techniques for creating a high-performance 5G network suited to new service requirements and advanced architecture. Over 3 days, it gives you the skills to analyse, plan and design networks while accounting for critical factors such as coverage, mobility and throughput.
You will cover key modules on 5G cell design, propagation, active antenna technologies and parameter planning. You will apply advanced technical methods and tools, supported by practical case studies and quizzes to validate your understanding and learning.
