5G Fronthaul over Optical Network

5G Fronthaul over Optical Network  is mainly aimed at a technical audience. It is suitable for technical professionals, RAN operators, Radio planning engineers, RAN optimization engineers, optical network engineers and experts, Research Institutes, defense sector, who currently are or will be involved in 5G frontaul over optical deployments. Moreover it is useful for Broadcasting companies utilizing optical infrastructure as well as optical network service providers and operators wishing to move towards more flexible 5G deployments for dense populated areas with high cell densification.

• Prerequisites: Those wishing to take this course should have a good understanding of 5G technology as well as some preliminary knowledge on optical communications basic principles.

This 5G Fronthaul training course is designed for engineers with knowledge of Optical Communications and 5G, who desire to acquire greater knowledge in the areas of 5G fronthaul network planning over optical. It offers an understanding of the network deployment opportunities, challenges, and risks that’s needed to exploit and deploy the 5G fronthaul over optical from the throughput perspective trying to emphasize on parameter configurations and performance optimization. Participants will be also exposed to link power budget, DWDM technology for capacity expansion, and throughput vs. distance. The course is supported by proper excel dimensioning (calculator) files for practical exercises and case studies.
