Drawing on over 40 years of experience in the RF and microwave industry the technical training courses are based on sound knowledge and practical application of the subject. On-site and bespoke courses can be arranged directly; just drop an e-mail to r.ranson@ieee.org to discuss the possibilities. Alternatively public courses are available

Image description There are 2 courses currently available:
1. Essentials of Radio Communications Systems
2. Hands on Software Defined Radio (SDR)

Public courses are available by request from CEI-Europe and R&S Technology Academy.

  • The 3 day Essentials of Radio course condenses years of industrial experience in radio systems into managable topics that cover all the important aspects. See this summary for more information.

  • The 2 day SDR course is a practical approach to understanding the mathematical basis of digital signal processing (DSP) using actual radio hardware to solidify the understanding. See this summary for more information.

There are unfortunately no scheduled courses at the moment. But if you are interested then contact r.ranson@ieee.org directly to find out what is being planned.

For those wanting to get started with understanding SDR, there are the notes from a lecture available which act as an introduction to the Hands on SDR course as well as an example of the quality of the lecture materal common to all the course topics.
