LTE radio network Planning – Course Outline
Introduction
The mobile broadband industry in Australia has grown at a phenomenal rate in
recent years. Data demand is constantly growing and the availability of new
technologies such as HSPA and LTE are escalating the use of mobile broadband. This
is being facilitated by innovations such as the Smartphone and tablets, which are
stressing the ability of the operators to support the required bandwidth.
Radio network engineers are faced with the challenges that come with a rapid
change in technology. A new radio interface such as Long Term Evolution requires a
different set of competencies and new tools that are designed to face the
challenges of mobile broadband growth and efficient network utilization.
TeleResources is one of the few independent Australian engineering companies
focused on this sector. We are the exclusive distributor of Atoll™, the radio planning
tool used by large operators such as Telstra and VHA. Our engineers have been
involved in the design of the latest 3G networks as well as emerging technologies
such as LTE.
For this reason we have often been sought out by operators, vendors and
independent service providers wanting to get experience with our tools and benefit
from our global knowledge. Consequently we have decided to offer a structured
training program in LTE radio network planning and optimization utilizing the Atoll™
planning tool and the Symena Automatic Cell Planning and optimization tool,
Capesso™.
The program is condensed into a 5 day intensive course where students will get
detailed knowledge about the LTE air interface and design methods. To complement
this there are practical training exercises on Network Design using the Planning Tool
and an Automatic Cell Planner. This knowledge of industry leading tools will provide a
competitive advantage to Radio Engineers who want to achieve success in their
profession.
The benefits that attendees will enjoy include:
An introduction to LTE system architecture and air Interface
Knowledge of Protocols and radio network functionality of LTE Systems
Learn how to plan an efficient LTE radio network
Gain a clear understanding of the OFDMA principle and application within LTE
Understand the role of MIMO and Adaptive antennas to improve
performance in LTE systems
Coverage and Capacity planning in LTE systems
Detailed planning and analysis using industry leading tool Forsk’s ATOLL
Optimization and Site Selection through Automatic cell Planning tool Symena
Capesso
Designing and optimising an example network
An overview of Initial tuning and Drive Test data analysis for optimization
LTE radio network Planning – Course Outline
A certificate of completion showing that they have received training covering
the design of LTE networks.
Prerequisites
Working knowledge of GSM, WCDMA network technologies and architecture
Working knowledge of Cell planning and Optimisation
Administrative Details
The course will be conducted at our CBD office premises.
The course will run from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm Monday to Friday
Training materials distributed to the attendees consist of:
Hard copy of the slides presented during the course for note taking and future
references.
A series of practical exercises. Exercises are entwined sequentially with
slideshows, to validate that each section is understood and acquired.
$3,000 (including GST for individuals, excluding GST for companies)
A light lunch will be provided for attendees.
A maximum of eight (8) attendees will participate in each training session assuring
individual attention by our instructors.
