RF DT Interview Question

1. The document lists various GSM related terms and concepts and asks questions about GSM network elements, radio frequencies, channels, interference, call procedures, and optimization parameters. 2. Questions cover topics like frequency ranges, uplink/downlink frequencies, radio channel characteristics, logical channels between MS and BTS, call establishment procedures, differences between GPRS and GSM, channel usage, timing advance, handover failures, Rx quality metrics, coverage, call muting, and KPI monitoring sources. 3. Additional questions focus on line of sight communication needs, diversity implementation, link budgeting factors, interference types, frequency reuse, co-channel interference, GSM network architecture, and the work of RF
