| UMTS Rel99 Radio Interface Protocols and Procedures
|
Length:
24 hours (3 days)
|
Prerequisites:
UMTS/WCDMA Technical Overview or equivalent working knowledge.
|
Audience:
Engineers and decision makers interested in a broad review of UMTS/WCDMA Access Stratum protocol, physical and signaling layers. Engineers responsible for the design or operational deployment of UMTS/WCDMA networks and devices would strongly benefit.

Course Description:
This course takes an in-depth look at the Access Stratum protocol layers, voice and data services, and physical layer defined in the 3GPP Release 99 specifications for the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS). The course begins with an overview of a UMTS network and then focuses on the WCDMA Access Stratum. The procedures of the radio resource control layer are covered in detail, including system information processing, connection management, radio bearer control, mobility management, paging, and measurement control. Next, layer 2 procedures are covered, including radio link control and medium access control. The physical layer, concepts of UMTS spectrum, channel bandwidth, handover, cell reselection and power control are discussed in detail. The course also describes each block of the transmit chain for downlink and uplink channels, including coding, interleaving, spreading, scrambling, and modulation. The physical layer procedures for acquisition, random access, paging, measurements, and compressed mode are covered. The important security features for authentication, ciphering, and integrity protection are briefly described. Call flows for circuit-switched and packet-switched services are illustrated.
