Description:
This course is suitable for beginners and experienced professionals looking to understand the 5G PDCP Protocol, a Layer 2 RAN protocol. Beginners will gain a strong foundation in PDCP features as defined in 3GPP PDCP 38.323 specifications. Experienced individuals will benefit from a structured resource with insights not explicitly mentioned in the specifications. The FAQ list provided after completing the course could be helpful in job interviews.
Why take this course: The instructor has extensive experience in implementing 5G RAN protocols from the early stages of standardisation. This course provides an experienced explanation of PDCP, enhancing understanding of the specification. Each sub-topics duration is designed to help students stay focused and grasp concepts effectively. By the end of this course, you will be comfortable with the PDCP protocol and motivated to explore more about 5G RAN.
