Radio Spectrum Management is of ever increasing importance for Telecommunications Companies, Public Authorities as well as for Defense Forces.
It is necessary for the planning, implementation and operation phases of various types of technologies: point-to-point/multipoint links, broadband wireless access, cellular systems, radar, navigation systems as well as television and sound broadcasting networks, both analogue and digital.
The hierarchical process of military spectrum management has extensive needs for long-term strategic as well as short-term tactical frequency management.
COURSE CONTENT
This elearning course gives participants the knowledge of rules and regulations for the utilisation of the Radio Spectrum.
Methods for planning and coordination of point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and area covering radio networks to achieve performance targets and spectral efficiency are covered.
The following Services are covered (for details see Modules… below);
- Space services
- Mobile services
- Broadcasting services
- Radionavigation, Radiolocation, Science services
- Non-licensed services, other issues
When the Radio Spectrum Management course is conducted as classroom training the WRAP software for spectrum management and radio network planning is installed on the student computers and practical exercises are performed. The software is available for E-learning students also although the E-learning course does not make use of do-it-yourself exercises. Computer requirements are PC, Windows Vista, 7 SP1, 8 and 10.
Videos demonstrating the use of the software can be downloaded.
The videos can be found here:

Download the file WRAPv 4.23.2 (or newer version if available), unzip and follow the Setup instructions document. You may also download the Videos folder to watch demonstrations on how to use the software.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
The course is intended for engineers and radio spectrum managers working with radio communications with a need to know about regulations for the utilisation of the radio spectrum and methods for analysis, planning and coordination of radio systems in order to achieve required performance within the system without interfering with other radio systems.

058 Modern Digital Modulation Techniques for Wireless, Satellite, and Wireline Communications – 5G and Beyond
- Learning about OFDM -based systems including OFDM, OFDMA, S-OFDMA, and SC-FDMA, which are integral parts of 5G-NR, 4G-LTE and the IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) systems.
- Emphasis on the new modulation standard for the physical interface of 5G-NR. This OFDM standard is based on scalable subcarrier spacing.
- Discuss other modulations, such as “Faster Than Nyquist” (FTN) signaling, which are being considered for advanced wireless systems. Many of the modulations have been combined with MIMO, Massive MIMO, and BLAST, to improve spectral efficiency.
- Describe the use of constant-envelope CPM modulations (e.g., GMSK), especially for present and future broadband wireless communications and space communications. All of the modulations have been, and will be, utilized in mobile and broadband wireless systems, as well as in xDSL systems, to greatly improve both bandwidth and power efficiency.
- Discussion of one of the most important topics in communications, Shannon Information Theory.
