5G NR (New Radio)

( Duration: 5 Days )

The 5G NR (New Radio) technology gives 5G, enhanced flexibility for a multitude of use cases, enabling it to support diverse spectrum bands, including mmWave bands with far higher available bandwidth, through the use of specialized technologies like scalable subcarrier spacing and massive MIMO, absolutely necessary for the implementation of radio beam steering and forming to mitigate propagation challenges in mmWave communications.

The 5G NR (New Radio) training course covers all aspects of 5G NR air interface, protocols, operations and procedures. Participants learn about the real 5G networks and 5G NR.

By attending 5G NR workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Understand the basics of 5G NR (New Radio)
  • List basic 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) 5G NR features and capabilities
  • List the relevant innovations and technologies for 5G NR
  • Compare and Contrast Non-standalone 5G NR and Standalone 5G NR specifications
