WinProp Network Planning Interface

Introduction

AWE offers an application programming interface (API) for network planning computations. The interface is realized in DLLs and is available for Microsoft Windows and Linux (both in 32 and 64 bit). The very simple handling of the API allows customers to easily include a radio network planning module in their own software tools.

The API is used by several companies and was additionally sold to their customers. Currenlty more than 500 users are working with the WinProp API.

Technical Details

The software includes the following features:

• All air interfaces from WinProp stand alone software supported: 2G, 3G, LTE, WiMAX, W-LAN, etc.

• Pre-defined configurations available.

• Air interfaces fully user-definable (all parameters can be defined via API).

• Computation of all relevant results possible: Received power, SNIR, througghput, max. data rate, MIMO streams, etc.

• Network compuation on horizontal planes as well as on inclined planes and arbitrary polygons supported.

• Path loss maps (propagation results) for each transmitting antenna defined in the network (for the best usage of the Network Planning API, the Wave Propagation API of WinProp is highly recommended).

The package is delivered with the following content:

• WinProp API DLLs for Microsoft Windows or Linux (for other operating systems please contact us)

• Detailed documentation

• Sample project for Microsoft Visual Studio
