Details
This three-day course provides comprehensive information on the 5G radio and wireless network with a focus on physical layer and air interface technologies. The course starts with a review of cellular standards evolution and the shortcomings that 5G addresses. Next, we move on to describe the modulation waveforms and look at the issues that are introduced by working with higher GHz frequency bands. Further topics include Massive MIMO, network architecture, 5G system features, and evolutionary services.
Upon completing the course you will be able to:
- Identify shortcomings in previous cellular generations that the 5G wireless network architecture addresses
- Explain key 5G wireless features and advantages
- Describe major 5G enabling technologies
- Understand 5G radio architecture and system considerations
- Assess the impact of key air interface changes required to support the evolution to 5G
- Predict physical layer design and implementation issues
Anyone working within the field of general RF, wireless, and cellular systems will benefit from this comprehensive coverage of 5G wireless networks. The course is well suited for design engineers and program managers who require an understanding of 5G principles and design concepts. An electrical engineering background or equivalent practical experience is recommended but not required.
In partnership with Besser Associates (US), Wizlogix introduces you the well-known future lead 5G technology through this course.

Joseph Boccuzzi, Ph.D.
Dr. Boccuzzi has been in the Wireless and Wired Digital Communications field for over 20 years. His experience has a range from Algorithmic Development, Realtime Coding (DSP & ARM) and Systems Architect to Product Management with respect to 2G, 3G WCDMA, CDMA2000, HSDPA/HSUPA, LTE, DVB-H, GPS, WLAN, BT, etc. with a good understanding of the RF, Base Band, Audio and Multi-media issues involved in developing a consumer product. His currently works for Intel Corporation focusing on wireless access system architectures.
He developed multimode reconfigurable receiver architectures supporting spread spectrum (WCDMA, IS-95, CDMA2000, WLAN and GPS); worked on Adaptive Antenna Array (Smart Antenna) algorithms for WCDMA, TDMA and OFDMA systems. He also investigated SISO, SIMO, MISO and MIMO antenna configurations.
He has designed complete uplink and downlink digital communication system simulations for both Wireless and Wireline technologies including: Modems, Codecs, RF Impairments, Channel models, etc. These simulations supported both the link and network levels and involved mathematical analysis. The algorithms included: high speed cable modems, power line communications, satellite systems, Flex paging systems, CT-2, DECT, JDC, IS-136, GSM, DVB-H, WiMax, WLL, Bluetooth, etc.
An author of technical papers, prepared technology presentations worldwide and holds over 20 patents, domestic and international. Dr. Boccuzzi is an instructor for Besser Associates. He is the author of two books Signal Processing for Wireless Communications and Femtocells: Design & Application, both published by McGraw Hill.
