LTE RAN Signaling Training, LTE Signaling Training

LTE RAN Signaling Training course is a 2-day hands-on training covers a solid signaling aspects of LTE protocol stack including LTE layer 2 (L2) and layer 3 (L3) signaling protocols as specified by 3GPP Evolved Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) specification. Participants will learn about the L3 protocols, radio interface, S1-interface, and L1 signaling aspects. Other topics such as scheduling and reliability (ARQ and HARQ) are also covered.
