Technical Overview |
Training Course Outline
Course Duration:
3 Days
Training Course Description:
This course describes the basic technical functionality, facilities &
components in a 3G wireless system. Topics covered include, 3G
specifications, conceptual models, system architecture, UTRAN and UMTS
Core Network, security, and protocols & basic procedures.
The course can be delivered from a handset or core network
perspective.
Prerequisites:
The target audience for this course are students wishing to gain a
technical knowledge of UMTS technology, covering all aspects of the
UMTS network. A good understanding of wireless communications would be
advantageous, as would telecommunication experience.
