Duration: 11 Hours
Description
This 5G Air Interface Overview training course provides a technical introduction to the 5G New Radio. Participants will gain insight into the design goals, development schedule, principles, design, and implementation of the 5G air interface. Engineers who are new to or already working in mobile radio communications will benefit from this course, which assumes familiarity with telecommunications and general engineering terminology. Some understanding of LTE cellular systems would also be beneficial for attendees.
During this course participants will delve into various topic areas related to 5G, including key features and standardization, use cases, performance objectives, deployment options, radio spectrum, millimeter-wave communications, principles of radio transmission and reception, multiple antennas, air interface protocol stack, architecture of the air interface physical layer, and procedures for data transmission and reception on the 5G air interface.
This self-paced on-demand distance learning course features illustrated course books, videos, tests and full tutor support.
