LTE Radio Planning (TA course)

[primig]

Friends!
There has been another LTE radio planning course from TA posted here before, but they are different when I have compared them (page count/chapter headings etc.)

Enjoy & Good Luck!

Here is hopefully a new share, if Posted already, apologies!, I haven't found it !
If you put these files together with the other posts you have nearly the complete "LTE Radio Planning & Optimisation Professional Bootcamp" 2009 -2011 version
These files are from 2009 so there will be differences from the version on their page and some overlap with the other posts.
