LTE Optimization Training:

LTE Optimization Training Course with Hands-On Exercises (Online, Onsite, and Classroom Live)

This LTE Optimization Training course undertakes an in-depth study of LTE performance and optimization procedures. We begin with a review of the physical air interface and LTE eNodeB KPIs. The LTE accessibility KPIs, including a review of the 3GPP functionality procedures regarding accessibility, are studied next.

This is followed by a discussion of the retainability KPIs and a handover overview. The LTE Optimization Training course ends with an examination of the integrity KPIs concerning throughput and delay, coordinated with appropriate cell planning tuning and optimization.
