Duration: 11 Hours
Description
This 5G Architecture and Protocols Overview on-demand training course provides a comprehensive technical introduction to the 5G network, covering design goals, development schedules, and the core and radio access networks of 5G. Engineers new to or already working in mobile communication networks will benefit from this course, which assumes familiarity with telecommunications and general engineering terminology, with some understanding of LTE cellular systems being beneficial.
The course covers a range of topic areas, including 5G introduction, key features, and standardization, use cases and performance objectives, radio access network architecture and protocols, core network architecture and protocols, network function virtualization, network slicing, interworking and compatibility between 5G, LTE, and Wi-Fi, PDU connectivity, Quality of Service, service provision, and signaling procedures in the 5G network.
This self-paced on-demand distance learning course features illustrated course books, videos, tests and full tutor support.
