25 February 2024 (5–6pm AEDT/6-7am UK Time)In partnership with Engineering Education Australia (EEA) Stay ahead of the digital transformation curve by learning why and how private networks are being deployed. Private broadband networks are rapidly evolving. As an engineer, there's a growing need to be aware of the key differences between public and private networks, their potential uses, as well as how mission-critical deployments differ from public safety networks.  Private networks are also becoming particularly important in industry, where digital transformation is increasing the demand for smart factories, industrial robotics, AI, IoT, and autonomous vehicles.  This webinar will build your understanding of...

Recorded | 4th November 2022 To be able to satisfy the 3GPP defined ‘use cases’, including enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), massive Machine Type Communications (eMTC) and Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) demands additional radio spectrum, in particular millimetric radio spectrum. Never before has this spectrum been used for cellular mobile communications and this requires a different approach to cell planning.This webinar examines millimetric radio propagation and how cells can be effectively planned to match use cases in different environments. Topics to be discussed include: 5G Frequency bands 3GPP use cases Why do we need to plan? Overall planning process Radio propagation at 26GHz...

Recorded 13th September 2022 The energy and utility sectors are going through a time of unprecedented change, driven largely by the drive for “net zero” and “smart grids”.  A shift towards renewable and more localised energy sources, coupled to a greater reliance on digital technology and automation, has transformed these industries. The sector is now actively envisioning how new wireless broadband communications technologies, and the cloud, can help them harness the power of the growing wave of connected devices and data. These technologies will replace traditional narrowband telemetry, tele-control and tele-protection systems, and enable utilities to move increased volumes of data...

Recorded: 31st March 2022 Join Les Granfield on Thursday 31st March (10-11am UK time) for this live training webinar looking at Open Radio Access Networks (ORAN) This webinar aims to de-mystify the world of Open Radio Access Networks (ORAN).  It will provide a meaning for the acronyms associated with the technology.  It will explain the need for open radio access networks, the key players and the associated technologies.  Topics include: Acronyms and abbreviations Radio access networks to date Why the need for open radio access networks Disaggregation Virtualized RAN Open RAN Cloud RAN 3GPP xRAN Cisco TIP O-RAN Small Cell Forum 3GPP Split Architecture O-RAN Architecture TIP Whitebox...

Recorded: 23rd November 2021 Cloud computing has revolutionized the way IT Services are deployed and used, allowing major improvements in flexibility, availability, and simplification, whilst offering opportunities to speed up time to deploy new services and realise cost savings. The core technology behind Cloud based services is virtualization; could this be leveraged to provide the same benefits to the communications market? Many communications services are of course based on software applications, which do lend themselves to virtualization and thus cloud deployment. However, communications are also dependent on connectivity services – can virtualization of these services be modelled and managed in a...
