Long Term Evolution- LTE Training & Certification Course
Details
LTE Training program provides understanding of next Long Term Evolution (LTE) Networks. Participants gain an overview on the evolution, architecture, protocols, services and application of these networks. Also the comparative analysis between other 4G technologies is covered in telecom training course.
Candidates undergoing this program should have basic understanding of mobile telecom network technologies like GSM, CDMA and WCDMA .
After Completing LTE Telecom Training you shall be able to:
