Description
This LTE Fundamental course trains an individual about the basics and important concepts of LTE Technology. The training will start with the very basics of LTE technology so that any individual can understand the need for a 4G - operator as well as a customer point of view. Then we will talk about the technicalities, key principles (Throughput, Latency, Convergence, TTI, MIMO, Multiple Access, Modulation, and Coding Scheme (MCS), etc). We will also look at the evolution of telecom Generations (G's) from 1G to 4G and the future LTE-A, COMP, HetNet, and others. After covering the basics we willGradually move towards the in-depth discussion about the LTE Network Architecture (EUTRAN and CORE) covering the functionality of EUTRAN, EPC (MME, SAE GW, PCRF, HSS), interfaces, Protocol Stack. we will also cover the Interworking of 4G Architecture with 3G / 2G (legacy 3GPP) and non-3GPP trusted and non trusted networks(WiFi/ WiMAX), also roaming scenarios will be covered.Further discussion will be on LTE QCI, EPS Bearers (Default, Dedicated), LTE Air Interface concepts - OFDMA, SC-FDMA, LTE FDD vs TDD, Frame Format, and Multiple Antenna Techniques (MIMO) covering Spatial multiplexing (SM) and transmit diversity (TM). Finally, we will cover the LTE Uplink and Downlink Channels and LTE Initial Access procedures.
