Course Overview

The Qualcomm course 5G Advanced: Network Energy Saving delivers a focused exploration of energy efficiency innovations in 3GPP Releases 18 and 19, designed specifically for network engineers, RF engineers, and system engineers working in 5G infrastructure development and optimization. As global 5G deployment accelerates, with projections indicating over $13 trillion in economic impact by 2035 according to a Qualcomm-commissioned IHS Markit study, the demand for energy-efficient networks has become a top priority for telecom operators. This course equips professionals with the knowledge to implement Network Energy Saving (NES) features that reduce base station power consumption without degrading coverage or user experience, making it essential for engineers aiming to support sustainable 5G network operations.

Participants engage with key technologies including M-MIMO Efficiency & Spatial Adaptation, SSB-less SCell Operation, NES-Conditional Handover (NES-CHO), Cell Discontinuous Transmission (Cell DTX), Discontinuous Reception (Cell DRX), Wake-Up Signals (WUS), and AI/ML-driven energy management. While the course is delivered through Qualcomm’s eLearning platform and does not involve traditional hands-on labs, it includes practical scenario-based learning where students analyze real-world implementations of On-Demand SIB1 transmission and dynamic PDSCH power adjustment. The curriculum simulates decision-making in a live network environment, enabling engineers to configure sleep modes, evaluate trade-offs between energy savings and latency, and optimize signaling for low-traffic conditions using tools and methodologies aligned with actual 5G RAN operations.

This training supports preparation for the broader Qualcomm 5G Associate-Level Certification, an industry-recognized credential that validates expertise in core 5G technologies and enhances professional credibility. Engineers with 5G certification are well-positioned for roles in top telecom firms and infrastructure vendors, where salaries for 5G network engineers in the U.S. range from $110,000 to $150,000 annually. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning path with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling and access to official Qualcomm courseware, ensuring uninterrupted training. Completing 5G Advanced: Network Energy Saving empowers engineers to lead green network initiatives, driving innovation in energy-conscious 5G deployments and advancing toward leadership roles in next-generation wireless technology.
