COURSE DESCRIPTION
About the course:
This course is ideal for those studying working in universities, colleges, government, defense industry or research who wishes to exploit the power of simulation to more effectively design, develop and analyze wireless communication systems. You will learn how to take a system from the concept phase, through requirements gathering, to a performance evaluation via a complete simulation. The course takes a hands-on approach to simulation development, supplemented by tutorials on the requisite background technical knowledge.
