Course Sequence: IP for Telecom Professionals


Module 1: “Quo vadis” / Module 2: The Basics / Module 3: Advanced Issues

Course Duration:
1 day

Course Description:
This course addresses the needs of everybody who needs to understand how and why the
telecommunication world is merging with the IP-world.
One key issue is to understand what “Next Generation Networks” are all about.
We will present the ideas and the concept of the IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) and the
related hardware, software and protocols like soft switches (media gateways), SIP, SDP,
H.248, ENUM or SIGTRAN.
The previous topic will allow us the understanding of Triple-Play Services. It will be obvious
that only an IP-bearer network will allow the telecom and mobile operators to sustain against
new competitors like ISP’s and cable-TV operators.
The course includes the presentation of some basic multimedia scenarios like video call
establishment through SIP and SDP.
The course concludes with the presentation of IP-centric mobile communication systems like
WIMAX, Flash-OFDM or IEEE 802.20.

Pre-Requisites:

The student should possess at the least basic technical understanding of today’s wireline
and/or wireless communication technologies.
Basic knowledge of the TCP/IP-protocol suite and its environment is desirable.

Course Target:

The student will understand the driving forces behind the migration towards an all IP-network.
The student will be aware of the technical options and features to achieve such an all IP-
network in telecommunication.
