Introduction:
 
A 3G mobile communications system which provides an enhanced range of multimedia services. UMTS will speed convergence between telecommunications, IT (Information technology), media and content industries to deliver new services and create fresh revenue generating opportunities. UMTS will deliver low cost, high capacity mobile communications offering data rates as high as 2Mbps under stationary conditions with global roaming and other advanced capabilities. The specifications defining UMTS are formulated by 3GPP

This course provides an advanced technical overview of current and coming UMTS technologies.. The course examines the principles of CDMA as used in a cellular environment, cell planning considerations, network architecture, channel coding, the Air Interface protocol stack and UMTS Security features.
 
Audience:
 
Engineers, technicians and other technical professionals requiring a technical foundation in UMTS systems and technology. The course is particularly valuable for those who are in the process of converting from current 2G technologies (for example GSM) to 3rd Generation systems, and those who will be working closely with UMTS in a technical capacity.
 
Prerequisites:
 
Basic Knowledge of radio principles and basic modulation techniques, along with a current mobile communications system.
 
Customize it:
 
This 2-3-day UMTS 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 ame 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.
