WinProp plug-in for Aircom ENTERPRISE

Integration of WinProp propagation models into Aircom ENTERPRISE

General


Aircom ASSET/ENTERPRISE is a radio network planning tool for the planning and optimization of multi-technology mobile networks. The ASSET/ENTERPRISE software package includes several empirical wave propagation models which can be used as a basis for the optimization and planning tasks. These empirical models are limited in accuracy as they rely only on the direct ray or the vertical plane. They do not consider relevant 3D building vector data during the prediction.

 

AWE Communications offers its deterministic, semi-deterministic and empirical wave propagation models as plug-in models for ASSET/ENTERPRISE. To achieve the highest accuracy for macro, micro, and pico cells, the WinProp plug-in considers simultaneously different types of databases (topography, clutter, vector buildings) - depending on their availability in rural, suburban, and urban environments as well as inside buildings. So all air interfaces (2G, 2.5G, 3G, HSPA, LTE, WiMAX), arbitrary antenna heights, various transmitter types, and all cells in the whole network can be planned with the WinProp propagation model.

 

Prediction with the WinProp plug-in
 

By using the highly accurate wave propagation models from AWE Communications within Aircom ASSET/ENTERPRISE the network design reaches a new quality. This is especially important in dense urban areas with high traffic volumes where interference issues are very important.

 

A free evaluation license together with sample data (based on the Jersey example provided by Aircom) is provided by the support team of AWE Communications.
