Urgent opening for Radio Network Optimization Consultants

Urgent opening for Radio Network Optimization Consultants

Currently we have multiple openings for Radio Network Optimization Consultants in Scandinavia. 

Duration: 3 to 6 months extendable contract 

Please find the job description below: 

Essential Duties and Responsibilities: 
Perform the following RF network design, planning and optimization activities as required: 
Fully proficient in set-up, calibration, utilization, and data post processing of drive-test hardware and software products 
Understand equipment co-location requirements for multiple operators and perform inter-modulation analysis. 
Proficient knowledge of MapInfo software. 
Comprehensive understanding of RF channel environment (fast fading, slow fading, time dispersion, scattering, diffraction, wave length/frequency dependence, etc.) and proper prediction model selection (Okomura, Hata, COST231, etc.) and their key parameters calibration for various frequencies. 
Good knowledge of system topology and air interface parameters of at least one of the main technologies (GSM/GPRS, EDGE, CDMA, etc.). 
Understanding of system topology and air interface parameters of at least one of the main 3G technologies (UMTS, 1XRTT/3XRTT, OFDMA, etc.). 
Good knowledge of at least one of the main equipment vendors 
Knowledge of system features and parameters for optimal network performance. 
Analyze network performance reports and good understanding of KPIs. 
Carry out optimization techniques (proper antenna selection for optimal horizontal/vertical performance, mechanical/electrical tilting, appropriate transmit power setting, antenna clearance, neighbor list analysis, etc.) for optimal site/cluster performance. 
Good understanding of antenna theory (aperture, gain, beam width, dipole vs. isotropic), antenna performance (return loss, impedance matching, etc.), and engineering tools (spectrum analyzer, site master, etc.). 
Perform link budget, design criteria and traffic analysis. 
Help to define processes and procedures for RF engineering tasks. 
Perform RF engineer's performance reviews as required. 

Qualifications: 
• Bachelors Degree or above in wireless, microwave, radio transmission, antenna, communications and electronics, or related fields. 
• Proficient knowledge of mobile communications and principles of GSM/CDMA/WCDMA products, signaling flow and protocols, electromagnetic theory, radio transmission, antenna system, and so on. 
• Ability to implement and supervise optimization project. Person who has relative project experience is preferred 
• Over 5 years experience in radio network planning and optimization
