Why should you learn about RF and Microwaves Communications?
RF Engineers contribute to the RF Planning and Design of Bluetooth, Zigbee, WiFi, cellular networks, Microwave, SATCOM, and VSAT. RF Engineers contribute also to new site planning and integration, and system optimization, radio engineering evaluation for system planning and site acquisition.
RF Engineers create and use RF propagation and planning tools; conduct and oversee field tests for potential sites, plan frequency assignments and identifying technical parameters for network growth;.
Learn how to identify causes of RF interference and troubleshooting interference problems with system performance; Develop long-term build plans, perform Macro/Micro Cell Design including antenna selection and placement. Gain knowledge in GSM, CDMA, EVDO, LTE , LTE-Advanced, WiMAX, SATCOM, VSAT, WiMAX.
Learn how to utilize propagation tools and other RF related equipment such as Map Info, Geoplan, Datapro and Prospect for site planning, site candidate comparison, propagation and coverage review and selection, antenna type and location, determination of coverage boundaries for extensions, regulatory filings, overall sector review of cell site locations for upgrades/modifications, and traffic engineering and investigation.
