Job Details
Location: Walnut Creek, CA
Salary: $60.00 USD Hourly - $65.00 USD Hourly
Description:
Job Description : RF Design Engineer is responsible for contributing in the RF Design of the regional wireless macro and small cell network.
Responsibilities:- include but are not limited to: Create site design RFDS and complete plumbing diagrams.
Perform radio engineering evaluations for system planning and site acquisition.
Evaluate coverage problems and requirements for coverage and capacity cells.
Utilize propagation tools and other RF related equipment such as MapInfo, Google Earth, ATOLL, for site candidate comparison, propagation and coverage review and selection, zoning and regulatory. Determination of regulatory coverage boundaries for extensions, FAA/FCC filings.
Review of cell sites and design for upgrades/modifications.
Creates search areas and reviews search area candidates within geographic area by taking into consideration performance issues, capacity, topography, and population.
Works closely with real estate team to increase efficiency, minimize cost, and streamline processes related to site acquisition, leasing, and zoning submissions.
Conduct RFE analysis, generate required reports and documents, and ensure 100% compliance to RFE mitigation standards within the allotted time frame.
Determine the required antennas for planned frequencies and their optimal positions.
Determine the required cable, antennas, and equipment to implement macro and small cell wireless network clusters.
The selected candidate will need to work well in small groups and independently and will need to be able to take the lead on certain projects.
Must be well organized, communicate well, and be able to handle multiple tasks/projects.
RF design experience for a wireless network is required. Experience with Atoll, RF Master, IXUS and RAVe is preferred.
Tools Experience Required: Advance Experience & demonstrated ability to use Atoll & Microsoft Office Suite
Preferred Tools experience: Fuze, Roof Master, SQL, Visio, Ericsson performance tools, Visual Basic (macro creation)
DEMONSTRATED KNOWLEDGE: 4G & 5G network design and implementation of tasks and knowledge related to antennas, good understanding of band performance capabilities and limitations. Demonstrated understanding of LTE KPI's and impacts of design on them Different types of losses and mitigation techniques.
Methods to calculate antenna gain and free space path loss.
The effects of outdoor terrain and clutter on signal propagation.
Understanding and use of topographical maps and digital terrain databases.
Antenna system design and use including antenna types (examples might include Hex/Octo port panel, cross-pol array, 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.
Macro site design considerations in urban, sub-urban, and rural environments.
Small cell design considerations in urban and sub-urban environments.
