Atio specialists complete training in Dubai
Atio, the provider of specialist ICT and telecoms service assurance solutions, has announced that a team of five mobile network optimisation specialists have successfully completed a two-week training course in Dubai focusing on Long Term Evolution ("LTE") mobile network planning, optimisation and performance management.
The course was delivered by leading global LTE technology experts and focused on LTE network architecture overview, air interface, end-to-end call processing, troubleshooting and culminated in a live network and real data performance workshop.
The customised training programme was developed in partnership with the Mict Seta, which co-funded the initiative as part of its national skills-development mandate.
"This is a significant step forward for Atio and our customers deploying LTE. It also represents a success story for the Mict Seta programme," said Tim Courtenay, MD of Atio Telecoms division. "LTE is rolling out faster on a global basis than anyone predicted. Its growth rate outstrips 3G or HSPA technologies when they were launched. LTE has been designed as an all-IP system; however, for it to reach its full potential requires proper mobile network design and management. Atio is playing a key role in this space and we will continue to work with our new and existing operator customer base, to ensure that customers receive an optimal experience when using LTE."
