| Introduction: |
| |
WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) is the radio access scheme used for third generation
cellular systems that are being rolled out in various parts of the globe. The 3G systems to support wideband services
like high-speed Internet access, video and high quality image transmission with the same quality as the fixed networks.
In WCDMA systems the CDMA air interface is combined with GSM based networks. The WCDMA standard was evolved through
the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) which aims to ensure interoperability between different 3G networks.
This course presents, in a practical way, the parameter necessary to plan a WCDMA RF network or assess the quality
of a RF network plan for WCDMA. A reminder of the WCDMA reference network is given, with emphasis on the parameters
that affect the RF plan. Fundamentals to understand coverage and capacity are discussed. Network planning tool
are then introduce to discuss the type of performance evaluation that can be done at time of planning. Parameters
that can be optimized to improve the planned performance are finally introduced. Last practical considerations,
such as site selection, are presented.

| This 2-3-day WCDMA Network Planning 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. |
