"Amazing course, very well structured, great content, great details, easy to understand. Outstanding lecturer with great knowledge and experience provides clear explanations."
Laaziz Chettouh, Telecom Professional
"One of the best highly practical courses I have taken to date. It takes a relatively boring topic and keeps you engaged with the exciting opportunities we will have with increased bandwidth and low latency.”
Christopher Williamson – RF Engineer, Sprint
"The trainers for me were of significant value because they represent two things that I think are really critical. Number one is that both trainers with whom I have the most direct experience were very experienced in the market itself. They had commercial experience as entrepreneurs working for big companies as well as small companies very directly in the telecommunications industry. The second thing that’s really important for a trainer to be good is an understanding of pedagogy and the process of learning. They use that to present the material so that it lands and finds a home in the brains of the learners in multiple ways. The high-caliber trainers we dealt with had both the experience and pedagogical passion.”
Roger Nichols, 5G Program Manager, Keysight Technologies

The Outline
350+ Slides / Videos
This course provides an in-depth description of 5G New Radio (NR) technology as defined by 3GPP standards and specifications. The content and flow are structured to introduce the NR air interface with a focus on technical design principles and their impacts on performance and deployments. Starting with a brief background on the 5G requirement, standardization landscape, and roadmap, and following a short review of the LTE air interface, the course presents 5G RAN and Core, architecture, and protocol structure. The discussion is then followed by a detailed description of the physical layer including time and frequency resource structure, channelization, scheduling, transmission protocols.
The course also presents the step by step process followed by a UE from downlink synchronization to uplink access and operation in the connected mode under power saving, mobility, and beam management. Given NR has the same technical foundation as LTE and is expected to co-deploy with LTE for many years the course also opportunistically makes comparisons with the LTE system. The contents of this course are kept up to date with the evolution of standards and may be adjusted to best reflect the state of NR technology.
