Learn 4G (Lte) Like A Pro- With Basic Principles Approach

LTE Architecture, Protocol Stack , RRC layer , Mac Layer, RLC Layer and most importantly Physical Layer or Layer-1

What you'll learn

The Basics of LTE and advanced LTE will be on your fingertips

Once the course will be finished you will be able to imagine about the technology in a much better way

Once the course is finished you will develop a critical thinking and debugging skills to look at the problems faced during testing and development of a product

The course will act as a prerequisite for understanding 5G-NR

Requirements

No programming skills are needed just a basic understanding of networking and data processing in OSI is enough

Description

This course provides a solid foundation on 4G LTE technology as defined by 3GPP standards and specifications . The content and flow are structured to introduce NR air interface with a focus on PHY, MAC, and RRC layer design principles and their impacts on performance and deployments.Assuming the audience’s familiarity with LTE the course starts directly with discussions on 4G requirements, system architecture, and protocol layers.Physical layer structure and channels  are described in detail. Resource allocation schemes, channel Sounding, MIMO features, and beam management are also explained. The course also presents the step by step process followed by a UE from down-link synchronisation to Uplink access and operation in the connected mode under power-saving and mobility procedures.course Highlights1) Introduction to the Cellular evolution over generations2) Introduction To Basic terminology:3) LTE Air Interface eg. TDMA,FDMA,CDMA,WCDMA,OFDMA,SC-FDMA4) Modulation techniques (AM,FM,PM,BPSK, QPSK,16QAM, 64QAM etc)5) LTE Layer1 processing 6) Resource allocation on time and frequency domain.7) Discussion on channel mapping (logical-transport-physical)8) Detailed discussion of individual physical channel and its mapping on the resource grid9) Layer2 and its processing10) Call flow layer 3:11) Other Important Topics like              -CSFB and VOLTE             -Introduction to Advance LTE features (carrier aggregation, DLFSS, ULFSS, ANR, SON, DRX,etc)
