Cloud RAN Essentials
Course Overview
This course discusses the evolution of the Radio Access Network (RAN) to Cloud RAN or Centralized RAN. With the shift toward more open, standards-based, software-centric virtual platforms, technical managers from mobile network operators will need to be aware of developments in the virtualized RAN market in order to drive the next level of network agility and flexibility and achieve significant operational gains. This course will also teach participants how to apply cloud and virtualization concepts in 5G technology.
