Dr Simon Chapman, Managing Director of Keima Wireless will be speaking at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on Wednesday 29 February 2012. The session which is from 1-3.30pm will look at some of the challenges in delivering the higher data-rates offered by LTE and LTE advanced which presents new design and spectrum challenges. The fast data rates have been promised but how can these be realised? Dr Chapman, along with other guest speakers will look at some of the challenges related to spectrum, radio planning, RAN implementation, mobile user and infrastructure design.

The seminars are open to all MWC attendees but delegates must book in advance, see link below.
