Introduction
|
|
|
For companies
who want to combine maximum performance and minimum
price, the new PPP (Pay Per Project) license is ideally
suited: Very often propagation models are only required
for a single project (or a few projects) and nobody
knows anything about further requests. So standard
licenses of radio network planning tools and propagation
models are too expensive - but PPP licenses are the
solution. |

Description
|
|
|
You can
purchase an annual license of the whole WinProp
software package (all modules, all tools, all
executables). You can terminate the PPP license whenever
you want or you can purchase it only for a single year.
And you can re-activate it within a few minutes, if you
need it again (for a new or for the same project).
With the PPP license you are entering into the
professional world of sophisticated propagation models.
The PPP license contains rural, urban and
indoor propagation models as well as simulators
for network planning (GSM, WCDMA,....). You can
make as many computations as you need with the PPP
license during the one-year period and you can extend
this license as often as you like - even after a long
period without any valid PPP license you can re-activate
the license within some minutes. This gives you a
maximum flexibility for a minimum (fix) cost. Assign the
cost for professional propagation modeling directly to
your projects and not to your annual budget!

Data for
propagation modeling
|
|
|
The databases
you need for your work with the PPP license require a
special coding before you can use them in combination
with the PPP license. This coding is made by AWE
Communications depending on the scenario for only:
Rural scenarios
|
paid per square kilometer
|
Urban scenarios
|
paid per building
|
Indoor scenarios
|
paid per wall
|
Antenna patterns
|
paid per pattern
|
So the only prices relevant for you
are the annual fee and the fee for data conversion.
After the coding of the databases and the coding of
the antenna patterns you can use the databases and
antenna patterns for arbitrary computations with all
modules in the WinProp software suite.
The PPP license is ideally suited for users who want
to use WinProp only sporadically for a reduced set
of scenarios or for users who need sophisticated
propagation models in a professional software suite
for a single project (or for a small number of
projects).

Your work
with the PPP license
|
|
|
You can edit
or generate your urban and indoor databases with
WallMan and after
you have finished your work, you send the database (via
e-mail or CD-ROM) to AWE Communications where the
database is coded for the predictions with the PPP
license and after the coding the database is sent back
to you (via e-mail).
After the coding you can preprocess your database, you
can modify the material properties and you can compute
arbitrary predictions with all propagation models
available in ProMan.
Also the antenna patterns generated with
AMan (or other tools)
can be converted to be used in the ProMan PPP license.
The prediction results computed with the PPP license can
be used for network planning without any further coding. |
