This training enables the participants to understand cell planning including frequency planning and traffic dimensioning. Participants will create a nominal cell plan and gain a basic understanding of the various radio network features.
On completion of this course, the participants will be able to:
· Explain the major steps in cell planning
· Perform power/system balances and macro cell predictions
· Perform dimensioning of logical channels
· Estimate the cell size from a capacity point of view
· Frequency planning
· Produce a nominal cell plan
· Explain the use of different cell planning tools
· Discuss how to increase capacity in an existing network
· Describe some radio network features
The participants should be familiar with the GSM network or successful completion of the following course:
"GSM Network Fundamentals"
The traffic audience for this course is radio network engineers and radio network-tuning engineers which require a general understanding of the cell planning process.
