Course Details

This curriculum of our Air Interface range of courses is designed to provide a very detailed technical analysis of the radio environment associated with the main cellular technologies in use today. The curriculum is modular, which means that the 10 days of training can be spread over a number of weeks. Where possible, detailed signalling analysis will be included.
