Why Take This Course?
- Enhance your industry knowledge and skills by gaining a greater understanding of LTE Release 8/9 Troubleshooting and Performance.
- Train with engineers at Qualcomm Technologies – a world leader in 5G technology and wireless engineering.
- Participate in a professional development opportunity you can display on your resume/CV and LinkedIn profile.
Course Outline:
- The details of LTE terminology, key standards specification, tools, and performance analysis based on typical scenarios
- Hands-on log analysis for typical scenarios encountered when deploying LTE
- Each scenario includes the exchange of signaling messages, interaction between protocol layers, and important metrics to analyze performance using log files.
- How post-processing is tools-independent based on HTML files
- How to apply the guidelines and processes covered in the course to standard analysis tools
- How to explain the role of each protocol layer, identify key entities in a log file, and evaluate and assess overall LTE Performance in typical scenarios and network conditions
Prerequisites:
- You have taken or are familiar with the content in the following QWA courses:
Objectives:
- Analyze the key technical aspects of LTE, including architecture, operation, and key parameters.
- Troubleshoot LTE's specific acquisition and registration case studies-based log files.
- Show the data transmission flow through different AS protocol layers in both Uplink and Downlink.
- Calculate the main Uplink and Downlink Data Transfer KPIs using key factors and parameters impacting FTP data Transfer based on data collected in representative scenarios.
- Perform analysis guidelines to assess both handover and reselection performance including: parameters configuration and its impact on performance.
- Produce methodologies to analyze RSRP and RSRQ in both handover and reselection operations, including analysis of Tracking Area Update procedures and signaling flows of different LTE HOs (intra-freq, intra-eNB, inter-MME and Inter-SGW).
- Analyze log files to show overall performance of inter-RAT handover and reselection procedures, including the impact and trade-off of associated parameters.
- Quantify the performance of a typical LTE user in mobility scenarios, analyzing the data collected on typical drive route.
- Analyze the different causes of radio link failures, detailing the mechanism triggered to recover (Recovery Connection Re-establishment).
- Recognize typical failure cases in order to analyze overall LTE performance in a deployed network.
