5G Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS) Log Analysis Training

Why Take This Course?

• Enhance your industry knowledge and skills by gaining a greater understanding of 5G DSS log analysis.
• Train with engineers at Qualcomm Technologies – a world leader in 5G technology and wireless engineering.
• Learn online and at your own pace with our flexible eLearning format. Or, set up a live training session for groups of at least 15 people.

Course Outline:

• Obtain hands-on experience through exploring DSS by analyzing device DSS capability exchange procedures, MBSFN-based DSS procedures, and non-MBSFN-based DSS procedures for an EN-DC setup.
  • Identify MBSFN-based DSS configuration and non-MBSFN-based DSS through log analysis.
• Discuss the differences in the call flows for standalone and non-standalone DSS.
• Study how Control Channels and Reference Signals are related to DSS.
• Develop an understanding of the coordination between LTE and NR schedulers for DSS.
• Explain DL LTE and NR PDSCH sharing in both MBSFN subframes and non-MBSFN subframes.
• Explore UL LTE and NR PUSCH sharing.
• Use UE logs to demonstrate DSS deployment and mobility scenarios.
• Understand UE DSS signaling information through log analysis.
• Observe log information associated with NR RRC Reconfiguration.
• Analyze packets associated with DL and UL Control and Reference Signals.
• Identify log data for DL PDSCH Data Transfer in MBSFN NR and LTE PDSCH in non-MBSFN.
• Review logs for Dynamic Corset Rate Matching.
• Probe the logs for LTE and NR PUSCH data transmission and study them for mobility procedures such as NSA to NSA, SA to NSA, and SA to SA.
