responsibilities:

• Performing Macro/Small Cell design in Atoll including antenna selection and placement for urban and suburban environments.
  
  
• Perform intermodulation analyses of antenna systems and components.
  
  
• Calculate the efficiency of various multiple-antenna schemes, and analyze the tradeoffs involved in selecting from among them.
  
  
• As needed, calculate link budgets to evaluate system performance and reliability based on received signal level and fade margin.
  
  
• Determine parameters related to antennas (examples might include pattern, beamwidth, gain, distance from an antenna or array at which far-field conditions apply, spacing, beamforming, tilt, and sectorization) and analyze the effects of these parameters on coverage and capacity.
  
  
• Antenna system design and use including antenna types (examples might include Hex/Octo port panel, cross-pol array, Matsing etc.), antenna patterns, gain and EIRP, ERP, antenna size, antenna polarization, receive and transmit diversity, MIMO antenna systems, and proper antenna installation to provide for coverage and interference mitigation.
