About this course
Plan and tune mobile radio networks for coverage, capacity and quality. You will build link budgets, plan sites and frequencies, use drive-test and network data to find problems, and work through optimisation cases from real-world 4G and 5G networks.
What you'll learn
- Prepare coverage and capacity link budgets.
- Plan sites, frequencies and neighbours.
- Analyse drive-test and network performance data.
- Diagnose coverage, interference and handover problems.
- Plan and verify optimisation actions.
