WiMAX RF Design Course Pre-requisites

Attendees should have prior technical experience working with a mobile or wireless technology prior to attending the course.

Hands-on Practicals

This WiMAX boot camp is structured as 50% tutorial content, and 50% hands-on exercises, illustrated with case studies. Through a special arrangement with EDX Wireless, a demonstration copy of the EDX SignalPro® software tool, including the Network Design Module, is provided to each student, and used for in-class exercises. You’ll have the experience of designing the RF network for a sample WiMAX-served community. Ten spreadsheet tools are provided to enhance hands-on experience. Bring your laptop, or arrange in advance for our staff to provide one for you.

Lifetime Post-Course Support

After completing this WiMAX RF Design training course, delegates receive lifetime post-training support from LEVER Technology Group PLC, to help them apply the technologies and skills they have learned with us, to provide career-long support, and to ensure they are better equipped for their future roles in IT and networking.
