Microwave Engineering Masterclass

Microwave Engineering Masterclass [Online short course] August 2025

Online , Australia

Learn how to Plan, Design and Operate Radio Networks.



Book your spot now >>



Microwave radio as a technology has been around for decades, but over the years it has transitioned from analogue to digital transmission systems together and we have seen huge advances in equipment characteristics. This mix of old and new has resulted in a lot of confusion, with this course unravelling the mysteries of these multiple industry myths.

At the end of this course, you will understand the overall microwave market with an update on current and future developments, including how to apply the latest planning standards.

Microwave propagation is still analogue, and an in-depth understanding of microwave propagation and the various fading effects from weather variations is essential to designing, operating and maintaining a stable network. The new hardware improvements and features will be covered, as well as an in-depth look at antennas and the effects of interference in a digital network.

There are lots of opportunities to apply the theory with practical examples and tutorials using a training calculator that has all the basic formulas that are embedded in industry planning software tools. This allows the participants to understand the input parameters to industry planning tools plus what the output sheets really mean.

Course delivery: Online
Date: 25 – 29 August 2025
Time: 10.00 am – 12.30 pm AEST
Duration: 5 x 2.5hr sessions (12.5hrs total)
Cost: ARCIA Members = $1320 +GST; Non-member = $1650 +GST
Trainer: Trevor Manning, TMC Global

Pentagram Advisory Foreign Interference

SOCI Workshop: Critical Infrastructure and the Threat of Foreign Interference

Online , Australia

SOCI Workshop: Critical Infrastructure and the Threat of Foreign Interference

Foreign interference is not a new phenomenon. However, contemporary technology now means foreign interference can be conducted at unimaginable scale, with dizzying speed, and deftly with pinpoint accuracy. Whatever the manifestation, foreign interference is happening now. You and your organisation may be the target, though you may never know it.

What you will gain

In this workshop Pentagram explains what foreign interference is, the difference between foreign influence and foreign interference, interference in the context of critical infrastructure, and explores the actions critical infrastructure entities might take to better protect assets and operations.

This should be a thought-provoking discussion for people who operate and protect Australia's critical infrastructure, and also for the rest of us who rely on critical infrastructure services to enable our daily life.

Who should attend?

Any person connected with an entity that is obliged under the SOCI Act to establish and operate a CIRMP. Protective security practitioners. People interested in contemporary threats.
