ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

CUSTOMIZE IT
  • For those with good wireless technologies background but without exposure to WCDMA/HSPA, we can cover the prerequisite material upfront by extending the LTE Signaling course to five days.
  • We can tailor the course to focus on the technical aspects most pertinent to your audience, whether radio/core network engineers, application/device developers, or others.
  • Add a workshop day at the end of the LTE Signaling Training course, for a total of four days, for a deep dive into the transmission network IP backbone issues.
