This three-day course offers a comprehensive exploration of both 5G Radio Access Networks (RAN) and Open Radio Access Networks (ORAN). Participants will gain a deep understanding of the key features of a 5G network, including the 5G New Radio and the architecture, characteristics, and spectrum usage of the 5G RAN. The course also covers the transport of signalling and traffic over the 5G RAN interfaces, as well as an in-depth study of the signalling protocols used. In addition, participants will receive a solid introduction to Open RAN, learning about its purpose, features, architecture, operation, and deployment options. The course also explores how ORAN principles, rooted in virtualisation, support the evolution to 5G and the impact of using ORAN architecture on open and standardised interfaces. This course is ideal for those in or entering technical roles in a mobile network operator's Radio Access Network (RAN) environment. Overall, this course provides a comprehensive overview of 5G RAN and ORAN, equipping participants with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in technical roles within the mobile network industry. With a focus on both theoretical concepts and practical applications, participants will gain valuable insights into the latest developments in 5G technology and its impact on network architecture and operations.
