Timing Advance (TA) is one of those concepts that every 5G engineer encounters but few truly understand at a deep level. This concise, focused course gives you exactly that — a complete picture of TA in 5G NR, from the physics behind it to the 3GPP procedures that govern how it is measured, reported, and applied.
In just 51 minutes you will understand why Timing Advance exists (the propagation delay problem), how it is calculated from the round-trip time between UE and gNB, how the gNB signals TA adjustments to the UE, and how incorrect or delayed TA updates impact uplink synchronisation and network throughput.
The course is structured for practising engineers and students who already have a basic understanding of 4G/5G cellular networks and want to deepen their knowledge of this specific mechanism — ideal for RAN engineers, PHY/MAC developers, and testing professionals.
