Course Code: RP1306
This course introduces some of the key techniques used in the latest products related to microwave radio.
Topics covered include adaptive modulation; radio link protection and bonding; fixed link MIMO; Internet Protocol (IP) radio; Ethernet QoS management; header compression and split mount; and full outdoor configuration. The course looks at how vendors and network planners are addressing the issues associated with upgrading from legacy microwave technologies (PDH/SDH) to full IP. The emerging E-band technology is discussed in detail, with a particular emphasis on planning E-band links and the technical specifications of a range of equipment from the main vendors.
This course is intended for experienced transmission and backhaul engineers and system architects requiring an in-depth understanding of the evolution of fixed broadband radio.
A good knowledge of radio principles would be desirable, as well as an appreciation of IP technologies.
