mobile communication systems, physical properties of
wireless channel as well as popular standards for mobile
communication systems: GSM900, CDMA2000, WCDMA,
LTE,...
◼ Have ability to do the cell planning, implement suitable
noise canceling methods for mobile communication
systems as well as to optimize these systems, diversity
techniques and coordination.
◼ Apply team-working skill, presentation skill, planning,
efficient time management skills and conduct research on
new solutions for solving practical problems related to
mobile communications.
