Introduction:
 
The implementation of UMTS is gathering momentum worldwide. While many vendors and operators are focused on the FDD mode, and some also on TDD, others view HSDPA as being just the right entrée into UMTS. Although HSDPA builds on the FDD structures, it presents some unique capabilities and challenges.

Building on your knowledge of UMTS-FDD, you will learn the capabilities and complexities that HSDPA brings to the etwork structure and operation. While HSDPA is conceptually simple, it leaves a number of implementation details to the individual equipment vendors. Knowing how the HSDPA-enabled UMTS network is structured will allow you to ask the vendors the right questions, which in turn will allow you to make the right design choices. All in all, you will come away from this class with a good understanding of how to design, implement, and optimize HSDPA networks.
 
Audience:
 
Those experienced with UMTS-FDD who wish to learn more about HSDPA. The standard presentation of this course assumes a bachelor of science in Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related subject along with an appropriate background in communications engineering.
 
Prerequisites:
 
Knowledge of the wireless network structure and operation, RF propagation and fading issues, and link budget analysis. At least two years experience in the design and optimization of a wireless network using any major technology.
 
Customize it:
 
This 2-3-day HSDPA: Network Architecture, Operation, and Design course will be customized to your needs and specifications. Eno.com will assist you in identifying those needs and specifications. A word to the wise, there are many vendors of Wireless training. They will typically have a broad and general course, one size fits all, already developed and just put your organization?s name on the title slide. This minimizes their effort and time investment. At Eno.com, every course is made to your exact and exacting specifications. We help you ensure what you are getting is what you really need even if at the beginning you weren't too sure of what that was. We fit the class to your needs. We never fit you into our standard, one size fits all, class. Please call or e-mail to schedule a no-obligation conference call to help us understand your audience background and training objectives.
