Independent Component 1 Approval

1. Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.

The topic that I have chosen is Radio Frequency Field Engineer, and I plan on completing my 30 hours with my mentor, Oscar Holzmeister. I will be accompanying him to Radio Based Stations so that I can learn more about the replacements of radios, the failures within the stations, the software that is used to operate an RBS, and the different types of networks that the sites manipulate.

Once my mentor has approved of my basic understanding over my course of learning, he will allow me to handle and troubleshoot Radio Based Stations on my own for several different cells. He will also make sure I complete the job correctly and that I understand what everything is and what it does.
2. Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.

It is very difficult to show any physical evidence of what I have done because I can't really take anything with me from an Radio Based Stations, but that is what cameras are for. Like many others, I will provide photographs of what I am doing, and what I am trying fix in all of the stations that I visit with my mentor. I am still debating on whether or not to make a short little video on how to fix a specific site with a specific problem, to show more evidence. But I will definitely provide photographs for evidence.

3. And explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic in more depth

Troubleshooting stations on my own will allow me not only help me understand my topic in much more debt and will definitely help me answer my EQ. It will help me answer my EQ, because my EQ is about troubleshooting cellular coverage and troubleshooting an RBS is the first steps in doing so.
