Course 401 - Installing And Operating The Agilent
E-7473a Network Measurement System
Scope
This
one-day seminar teaches and actually demonstrates the installation and
operation of Agilent CDMA drive-test hardware and software, including all main
product features. At conclusion, users will have hands-on experience with both
hardware and software of the tool, and will recognize the various indicated and
collected CDMA parameters. Other
courses in this series explain advanced aspects of the air interface required
for interpretation of observed system problems and help build skills for
identifying causes of performance problems and appropriate corrective actions.

Course Presentation Setting and Methods
This
course requires both a classroom setting and a vehicle for drive-test
demonstrations. Basic hardware is introduced in the classroom, then installed
by the class participants in the demonstration vehicle. All class members
participate in demonstration test drives to gain personal hands-on experience.
The hardware and locally-collected data are then brought to the classroom for
screen projection, discussion, and review by the entire class.
Course Documentation and Materials
Student
Guide, Reference Card, and miscellaneous supplies.
Facilities and Hardware Requirements
·
Customer-provided E-7473A Network Measurement System
·
Vehicle suitable for demonstration (a minivan or larger is ideal).
·
Classroom suitable for student note-taking and a screen or other
projection surface
·
Operating CDMA system with at least one BTS on the air.
For
maximum effectiveness, we recommend the number of students be limited to not
more than twice or worst-case, three times the seating capacity of the
demonstration vehicle (allow one seat for the instructor). Multiple vans increase
feasible attendance.
