An intensive professional development training course on
GSM and GPRS
Fundamentals
Why Choose this Training Course?
This GSM and GPRS Fundamentals training course is designed to provide in-depth and practical technical insights into GSM, the GPRS network, its services, and application development.
Originally, GSM focused primarily on voice communication and had limitations in data capabilities. However, these limitations are addressed by GPRS's packet-switched functionality. As a packet-data technology, GPRS enables services such as email and internet access, offering financial benefits, improved data transfer speeds, and a well-suited architecture, protocols, and functions. The course explores these aspects progressively, covering GSM, EDGE, and GPRS.
This AZTech training course will feature:
- An understanding of GPRS network planning, as well as the project planning phase
- The practicalities involved in managing a GSM/GPRS project
- GPRS architecture, as well as services that are/can be provided
- GPRS protocols and their functionality
- IP network architectures and functionality
- GPRS network functionality
What are the Goals?
By the end of this AZTech training course, participants will be able to:
- Appreciate the functionality of a GPRS system
- Understand the transition/evolution from GSM to GPRS
- Comprehend and understand the existing and emerging standards
- The ability to review GPRS network architecture and protocols
- Explain GPRS security
- Understand GPRS troubleshooting
