This introductory course is intended for RF engineers and non-RF engineers involved in the design, deployment and testing of wireless communication systems. These systems exist in today’s society as cellular phone service, police and fire radio networks, remote metering and control systems, automatic vehicle location, distributed antenna systems and Wi-Fi, to mention a few.
This course provides an introduction to the process of planning a wireless network and how the choice of technology and service to be offered (e.g. voice, data, or both) will impact the effort of the engineering team in terms of sizing the network, establishing costs, and determining a project timeline.
The course begins with a high level description of the network planning elements and challenges, and describes how a network is dimensioned, including how range is estimated and what elements play a role in determining how communication sites are distributed (e.g. propagation model, diffraction, confidence). This course will also discuss how interference impacts performance, and will review the various methods of interconnecting sites in order to have successful communication. Finally, the course will cover the various testing methods for ensuring a wireless communications network meets the intended performance.
