Course 332  - CDMA2000 1xRTT: 2.5G Spreading Rate 1 Codes, Channels, Call Processing, and Networks

 

Scope

This one-day seminar takes a deeper look at the interim stages in migration from IS-95 CDMA systems to 3G. It explores the enhancements provided by IS-95B and gives a detailed view of the codes, channels, call processing protocols, data capabilities, and network architecture of Spreading Rate 1 (1xRTT) systems, often called “2.5G” technology. At conclusion, participants should be able to describe basic channel functions and configuration, data capabilities, basic network architecture and steps involved in call processing examples.

 

Applicability

CDMAone and CDMA2000 systems of all manufacturers.
