Course Overview

One course that takes you from no telecom background to job-ready. It covers the whole radio access story in the order the industry actually built it: the RF physics underneath everything, then 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G in turn, and finally the field skill — drive testing and data analysis — that turns knowledge into a first job.

Six topics, 45 lessons. Each generation is taught against the one before it, so nothing is memorised in isolation: once you understand why GSM divides time into slots, WCDMA power control and the LTE scheduler stop being separate subjects and start being the same problem solved with better tools.

Nothing here assumes an engineering degree or prior telecom experience. If you can follow secondary-school maths and you are willing to work through the material in order, you can finish this course and hold your own in a planning or optimization conversation.

What You'll Learn?

  • Read and interpret RF measurements in dB, dBm and dBi, and build a link budget
  • Describe the full GSM architecture, air interface, channels and call flow
  • Explain WCDMA power control, soft handover and the HSPA enhancements
  • Analyse LTE architecture, OFDMA, scheduling, mobility and the core KPIs
  • Plan and troubleshoot 5G NR: numerologies, beamforming, massive MIMO, NSA and SA
  • Run a drive test end to end and write an optimization report an operator will act on

  • Graduates and career changers entering the telecom industry

  • IT, electronics and IT-support people moving into wireless

  • Field technicians who want the theory behind the numbers

  • Anyone preparing for a first telecom technical interview

  • Secondary-school level maths

  • No telecom or engineering background required

  • A computer and a stable internet connection

  • A calculator or spreadsheet for the link budget and KPI exercises

  • 45 video lessons across six topics

  • Link budget and unit conversion worksheets

  • GSM channel reference chart and call flow diagrams

  • KPI definition reference and drive test report template
