Description
Microwave networks provide reliable point-to-point and highly directional communication that maximizes your RF transmission. Because Microwave uses a higher frequency band, the capacity, throughput, and reliability of Microwave networks is well proven and understood to be very efficient throughout the telecommunications industry. In existence since the mid 1940’s, point-to-point microwave now uses digital modulation rather than simply analog. This course presents the state-of-the-art in microwave communications. The course presents the basic theory, procedures, and techniques for microwave systems. Detailed mathematical analyses are minimized in order to concentrate on basic concepts, procedures, and optimal applications. Measured results are used to demonstrate each of the techniques discussed.
