Wave Propagation Plug-ins for RNP Tools

Introduction

Most commercial radio network planning tools offer a wide variety of features and tools for the planning of wireless networks. But very often the propagation models included in these tools are only basic models like Hata-Okumura. More sophisticated propagation models can only be used via an API. AWE Communications offers its popular prediction models with DLL interfaces for 3rd party radio network planning tools.

Supported Radio Network Planning Tools

WinProp's rural propagation models are available for several commercial radio network planning tools:

Handling and Integration

WinProp's rural propagation models are fully integrated into the radio network planning tools and directly connected to the corresponding API. All parameters of the propagation models can be handled with the GUI of the RNP. The available settings and databases, e.g. antenna patterns, topography and clutter maps can be used directly without further conversions.

The integration of the DLLs for the propagation plug-ins into the tools is very simple and a task of approx. 5 minutes.

Many customers already enhanced their radio network planning process by using WinProp's accurate and flexible propagation models instead of the classical models provided by the tool manufacturer.
