Course Description
The base stations for cellular systems course aims to identify the structure of the solid base station, its components, its working mechanism, installation and operation, and to link with theoretical knowledge in wireless communications to deepen the understanding of how the stations work. These are important skills and knowledge for the engineer and technician to work in the radio field with cellular service providers, especially since the course focuses on the real equipment through pictures, technical bulletins, and updated information up to the fifth generation equipment.
