2 Days / 4 Live Online Sessions (0900-1230)
Description
The TETRA System Design course is designed to provide engineers with the knowledge and skills needed to plan and configure TETRA networks effectively.
Topics covered in the course include TETRA air interface structure, modulation and channel coding performance, receiver sensitivity, power control mechanisms, network broadcast channels, cell surveillance, and more. Participants will also engage in a TETRA system coverage and capacity design exercise to apply their learning in a practical setting.
Ideal for engineers involved in radio system design, this course is suitable for those looking to gain a detailed understanding of planning, optimization, and configuration aspects of TETRA systems.
